Lossless video cutting desktop tools
This cluster is a set of desktop utilities for cutting and trimming video and audio losslessly, avoiding re-encoding to preserve quality. Some also support merging, chapter markers, frame-accurate trimming, and scene-change detection. Dated entries before the index start are sparse and intermittent, with a small grouping in mid-2023 (April, June, July) and isolated entries in 2020, 2021, 2024, and 2026. Losslesscut, videocut, and video-cropper lead on activity signal, though each shows zero stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
