Hi I have hundreds and hundreds of video files from TV series with intro's and outro's. I want to cut these off and it will take me days to cut one file at a time. Is there a program that allows me to say cut 2 mins lots of video files at once?

FFmpeg will recompress them, use avidemux if you dont want to recompress (loose quality)

mkvmerge can be used also, splitting feature can be used,
put this BAT into directory where videos are
Code:@echo off SET mkv_path=C:\My Programs\MeGUI\tools\mkvmerge\mkvmerge.exe SET destination_folder=E:\cut_off_videos SET renaming_indicator= SET intro_length=00:02:00 rem feature_video_finish = intro length + video feature length SET feature_video_finish=00:47:00 if not exist "%destination_folder%" ( MD "%destination_folder%" ) for %%a in ("*.mp4","*.mkv") DO ( call :cut_off_intro "%%a" ) echo done pause exit :cut_off_intro rem %%a becomes %1 after calling this function "%mkv_path%" -o "%destination_folder%\%~n1.mkv" "--no-global-tags" "--split" "timecodes:%intro_length%" "%~n1%~x1" rem deleting intro video part DEL /Q "%destination_folder%\%~n1-001.mkv REN "%destination_folder%\%~n1-002.mkv" "%~n1%renaming_indicator%.mkv" goto :eof :cut_off_intro_and_outro "%mkv_path%" -o "%destination_folder%\%~n1.mkv" "--no-global-tags" "--split" "timecodes:%intro_length%,%feature_video_finish%" "%~n1%~x1" DEL /Q "%destination_folder%\%~n1-001.mkv DEL /Q "%destination_folder%\%~n1-003.mkv REN "%destination_folder%\%~n1-002.mkv" "%~n1%renaming_indicator%.mkv" goto :eof

This script seems to work: Assuming your clip is exactly 20 min long and you want to cut out the first and last 2 min:
for %%a in ("*.mp4") do ffmpeg -i %%a -ss 2:00 -t 16:00 -c:v copy -c:a copy -y output.mkvGot my retirement plans all set. Looks like I only have to work another 5 years after I die........ -

It may very well default to nearest keyframe, I don't know. This is something I have zero interest in, I only suggested it because I thought the OP only wanted to save the first couple of minutes of all videos for whatever reason. ffmpeg can trim anything, even hevc.
If and when I want to trim mp4's, I use MpegStreamClip. Those are very rare occasions anyway..........Got my retirement plans all set. Looks like I only have to work another 5 years after I die........ -
Thanks Racer, i digged a bit further ....
