Cut the blue screen and snow from a dubbed DVD
Your tapes are on DVD now, with blue screens and snow at the start, the end and in between. No more hunting for them.
Open the DVD videoSteps
- Select everything in the DVD’s VIDEO_TS folder, drop it into Trim and press “Convert and open”.
- The video is checked in the background; the parts with nothing recorded (blue screen, snow, silent black) are hatched on the bar.
- Press “Keep only the recorded parts” for one range per scene: “Part 1”, “Part 2” …
- Save them joined into one video without the gaps, or one file per part, as VOB or MP4.
Questions
- Will dark scenes be cut too?
- A black picture only counts as empty when it is silent as well. Dark scenes with voices or sound stay. You can adjust every range afterwards.
- How precise is it?
- Each empty part is found to the frame. Play the hatched parts to check if you like.
- Can I convert several DVDs at once?
- A tool such as “Convert to MP4” can be used on every open video, each saved in turn (Orihako Pass). One at a time is free.
