HomeZoom Player › Dynamic Video Editing


The Scene Cut Editor allows you to dynamically edit (without actually changing the source file) the way media content is played. To do this, you need to have a media loaded (Currently playing or paused Media file/DVD/etc).

You can manipulate the media in the following ways:

  1. Cut:
    Mark a segment of time to be cut during playback.
  2. Jump: Create Jump points which can jump anywhere within the time line (including backwards). Using this method, you can re-edit the chronological play order in any way desired (jump points have a sensitivity of aprox. 2 seconds).
  3. Audio Mute: Mute the Audio for a specified duration.
  4. Hide Subtitle: Hide the Subtitles display for a specified duration.
  5. End: End Playback (move to next track), useful when playing DVDs, as it allows you to play multiple DVDs in sequence, bypassing the menuing system which prevents DVDs from ending on their own.
There is one additional checkbox in the Scene Cut dialog. The "Inverse Cut" checkbox inverses the function of the "Cut" feature. Instead of selecting a segment to cut from the video. When Inverse Cut is enabled, only the specified segments will play.

Similar to the Chapter Editor, a file is kept for every DVD and Media with a ".cut" file extension. If a "cut" file exists when Zoom Player replays content, the edit values are applied to the newly loaded Media or DVD.
