Video Scene Cut Detector and Splitter is a desktop shot-boundary analysis, timeline edit
list generator, and batch per-scene video splitting tool for Linux.
An independent Linux alternative to Vegas Pro scene detection workflows, it analyzes video
streams with FFmpeg visual scene-change scoring to locate camera cuts, preview shot
boundaries, export standard non-linear editing lists, and split footage into individual clips.

Key Features:
- Visual Scene-Cut Detection & Score Timeline: Runs FFmpeg visual scene-change filtering
(select and showinfo) with adjustable threshold sensitivity and minimum shot duration,
plotting the frame-by-frame scene score curve with interactive cut markers.
- Shot Boundary Thumbnail Contact Sheet: Extracts real preview frames at every detected
shot start so editors can review, merge, add manual cut points, or select specific scenes.
- CMX3600 EDL, FFmpeg Chapters & CSV Export: Generates frame-accurate CMX3600 edit decision
lists (.edl), FFmpeg chapter metadata (.ffmeta) with one-click chapter muxing, and CSV
shot logs.
- Batch Per-Scene Clip Splitting: Splits selected scenes into standalone MP4 (H.264/AAC)
or Matroska MKV video clips via accurate re-encode or fast keyframe stream copy.
