Yes, that's what I'm looking for. I'd just like to cut out the
commercials without changing anything else with the source file (like
I've done with VirtualDub on windows years ago).
Is it possible to remove unneeded parts of a recording in a few
seconds/minutes without having to transcode the source file (what
takes ages on my AMD64-3000+)?
