Recommendation - Software to split videos without loss of quality - lossless-cut

[dellagustin-sap]

Hi all, as moderator at the InnerSource Summit 2023 I have recorded the session locally as a backup for the organization team.
The recording from Zoom was one big .mp4 file.
I wanted to split it before uploading them for processing by the org team, but without having to "re-econde" the video, for a faster process time but also to avoid quality loss.
After a quick research, I tried two options (both on Windows):

• Mp4Splitter - https://www.mp4joiner.org/en/
• lossless-cut - https://github.com/mifi/lossless-cut

Mp4Splitter worked to a certain extent, but the performance was not great and it was crashing if I tried to play the video in it.

https://github.com/mifi/lossless-cut worked very well, so I used it at the end. Its processing is very fast (generated all the new files in a couple of minutes) and the result was very good. It also had a good perfomance on the UI and it was very easy to use.

Note: You can BUY it from known stores, or download it for FREE directly from the links in the Download section at the README.md, just below the store buttons. Buying of course is a way to support the project.
