AVCutty was designed to help you capture video material from a DV camera. It saves the videos in AVI files.
AVCutty also simplifies the splitting of AVI files into the different scenes. AVCutty scans the AVI files and detects the scene changes either optically or per DV date stamp. Each scene can be saved into a new AVI file. Because AVCutty does not recompress the video data, the process is lossless. Also it is possible to trim the scenes in a comfortable manner. So, AVCutty is very useful, particularly at the beginning of your video project.
NOTE:
· AVCutty is based on the principle of donation. It is 'Donationware'. This means, that if you use this software, you have to send a small amount to the developer of this software (that's me :-). It's your part to decide, how
· much you will send.

· "Mini-Editing-System": it is possible to save the defined scenes in a given order into one AVI file (eg. for export to the camera).
· Exports scenelist (EDL/CSV/AVS).
· Generates a scene index of the defined scenes or the AVIs in a directory including thumbnails, using editable layout templates.
· Splitts of AVI files after N frames or N seconds.
· Saves frames as BMP.

What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· New column in the scene list: For each scene, it is possible to set a state flag. The flag can be used to mark the trimmed scenes as 'ready'. So it is easier to keep in view, which scene is finished.
· Correction in the device selection of the capturing dialog (corresponding AVCutty/DirectX message: 'AddPreviewGraph() / E_INVALIDARG')
· The representation of the selection rectangle in the storyboard was changed.
· New option for saving scene AVIs: It is possible to delete the source AVI files after generating the scene AVI files (including an extra verification dialog before deleting).
· New option int the settings dialog: When exporting a video frame into a BMP file, it is possible to add the datestamp of the video frame to the file name.
· Better support of shortcuts when renaming a scene group (keys , and )
· Now it is possible to select "overwrite all"/"skip all", if a scene AVI already exists.
· Scene index: #PURESRCFILENAME returns the filename and not the path.
