Trying to vid for the first time in years, and I've gone back to MPEG Streamclip for clipping purposes, but as well as no longer being as stable as it used to be, it doesn't seem to be able to deal with large .mkv files.
I have no problem clipping the .mkv that are around 1 gb 720p but can't deal with .mkv files that are around 4gb 1080p. (I'm not technically savvy enough to know whether it's the size or the encoding it's having an issue with).
Any recommendations for for newer software that might deal with files better? (I'm using Lightworks for the actual vidding)

Date: 2019-04-22 05:34 pm (UTC)I use mkvtoolnix for clipping mkvs. The interface isn't the most intuitive (you have to choose "split by parts" and type in a list of comma-delimited timestamps instead of being able to mark 'in' and 'out' points), but it works well enough. Output is another mkv in the original encoding, so if you want it in an editing codec you'll need to transcode with something else. (I use JES Deinterlacer for that, which is also nonintuitive, and does a LOT more than deinterlacing.)
Basically, my workflow for mkvs is a pain in the butt, and I'd be happy to hear tips from someone who has an elegant mkv workflow.
