NAME

       gopchop - Fast, lossless cuts-only editor for MPEG2 video files

SYNOPSIS

       gopchop [ options ] [ file ]

DESCRIPTION

       gopchop  cuts  and  merges  MPEG2 video streams. gopchop uses a method to cut streams that
       does not require re-encoding, and therefore is fast and not prone  to  the  artifacts  and
       degradation  of quality inherent in re-encoding.  However, cuts are limited to I-frames or
       group-of-picture (GOP) boundaries. These frames occur frequently enough, and  often  times
       at scene transitions, so that gopchop's method is adequate for many applications.

       The typical use is manually editing commercials out of recorded television programs.

       Another  application  is splitting .VOB files from dual-layer DVD rips so that the content
       can be re-authored such that each half will fit on one single-layer DVD recordable.
