A QUICK WALKTHROUGH

How to use this tool

  1. Choose a video within the stated size and duration limits.
  2. Set the threshold, minimum gap, and sampling interval.
  3. Run detection, review thumbnails and export the CSV.

Local and bounded

Processing stays in this browser. Files are limited to 200 MB and 30 minutes; sampling is capped at 10 frames per second and thumbnails are bounded to limit memory.

Heuristic result

A cut candidate is a large visual difference between sampled frames. Seek failures are skipped and reported; this is not a frame-accurate edit decision.

GOOD TO KNOW

Common questions

Is my video uploaded?

No. The video is decoded locally and is not stored or sent to a server.

Why can a dissolve be detected?

Gradual transitions can exceed the threshold across sampled frames; adjust the threshold and sampling interval.
