Introduction
TSCutter is a basic transport
stream editing utility that processes blocks and cuts at the closest
packet boundary (188 bytes). It does not cut on GOP or audio packet
boundaries. To be used only with ISO 13818-1compliant MPEG2 transport
stream files. It is not intended as a general purpose file cutter.
Usage
The source and destination files are specified from the respective
edit box or "file open" dialogs (browse button). The extracted
segment can be defined either by start and stop times or filesize. In
the case of the latter, a block of the specified size is extracted
starting at the beginning of the file. The "Stop/Duration"
checkbox is used to toggle how the end time is handled --either absolute
or as an offset from the start time.
Once the extracted section has been defined and input/output files
selected, the "extract" button starts the process. A progress
meter and status message box show how the extraction is progressing and
display errors or problems with the extraction.

The "Stream mux rate" displays the transport stream
rate. If this cannot be properly determined then TSCutter most
likely cannot properly synchronize on the stream and any
specified start and stop times will not be properly interpreted.
This error will be flagged when the the file is opened.
