Editing mkv without Re-Encoding

[vivabarca]

hi, how i can delet a special scene from MKV video files without Re-Encoding ?
I tested MKvmerge (Spiliting with timecodes and then appending odd parts) but it did not delet extaclty i want. i need accuracy less than 1 second.
(sorry for my EN)

You can only cut at keyframes without reencodig. They might be several seconds apart.

Some software can just reconvert around the cut but I don't know anything for mkv. Maybe solveigmm video splitter.

But you can first try the free https://www.videohelp.com/tools/SolveigMM-AVI-Trimmer and see how it works.

thanks, but AVI Trimmer had less accuracy than mkvmerge !
it seems there isn't any way wihout reencoding.
what about with encoding ? is there software that can delet exactly scene i want from a full hd film and encod it too low size?

If you reconvert you can cut exact. Easy with freemake video converter, use the scissor to cut.

It might work with avidemux and video to video converter also.

Try using TMPGEnc MPEG Smart Renderer 4. This program is probably the best program that I have come across to edit video files in the MKV or MP4 format without re-encoding the whole video. It just re-encodes a small area around the cut and is frame accurate. This program however is not free and costs $69.95 US retail, but if you have purchased other TMPGEnc software you can get a user discount and purchase a license for $58.95 US. You can download a free 14 day trial before you purchase. I believe that the trial version adds a watermark, but I don't remember if there are other limitations.

VideoReDo TVSuite H.264 will work in frame cut mode. Supports AAC and AC-3 audio, but not DTS. I bought it several years ago and have been totally pleased with it and found it to be a solid investment. There is a free trial and I'm pretty sure the trial will work without putting in a watermark.
