slicing-copy.lua is a Lua script forked from Kagami/mpv_slicing.
The script is for mpv to cut fragments of the video.
- a new enough mpv
- ffmpeg
After all dependencies installed, download slicing_copy.lua in the repository.
Then either put slicing_copy.lua in in ~~/scripts, where ~~ refers to mpv's configuration directory or use option --script=/path/to/slicing_copy.lua to load it.
Press c to mark the start of the fragment you want to slice. Press it again to mark the end of the fragment and write it to the disk.
Press C to clear the fragment.
Press a to toggle audio capturing (default on).
Output videos will be placed in cutfragments in mpv configuration directory by default. The directory will be created if it does not exist. You can change the directory by editing option target_dir in script-opts/slicing_copy.conf.
You can change the keybinds by editing input.conf
You can configure how the script works by editing script-opts/slicing_copy.conf
Logs can be found in console (press ~ to open and esc to close by default), which might contains something useful when something went wrong.
Because ffmpeg does not support edl:// protocal, the script won't work if --merge-file is used or ytdl passed such url (so currently it does not work with youtube videos. see #10).
When cutting online videos, -referer and -user_agent will be passed to ffmpeg. In such case, the resulting filename tends to be wired.
