![]() You can join files, crop and trim audio, and rapidly split up long files. With Fission, audio editing is no longer a chore. The very peculiarity of this audio editor is editing without quality loss, as it is stated in it's description ( bold is mine): My 2 cents: I found Fission to be the best pick for Mac OS X. ![]() Will copy all the streams except the second video, which willīe encoded with libx264, and the 138th audio, which will be Value "copy" (output only) to indicate that the stream isįfmpeg -i INPUT -map 0 -c:v libx264 -c:a copy OUTPUTĮncodes all video streams with libx264 and copies all audioįor each stream, the last matching "c" option is applied, soįfmpeg -i INPUT -map 0 -c copy -c:v:1 libx264 -c:a:137 libvorbis OUTPUT codec is the name of a decoder/encoder or a special Select an encoder (when used before an output file) or aĭecoder (when used before an input file) for one or more For more information see its manpage, for example about -c: -c codec (input/output,per-stream) Take note that while this will keep some Metainformation (title, artist, etc.), some other (e.g. Would take a 3 minute piece of in.opus starting at 30 seconds and put it into out.opus without transcoding ( -c copy). The standard tool to do this not just for mp3 but for lots of audio and even video formats is ffmpeg: ffmpeg -i in.opus -ss 00:00:30.0 -t 00:03:00 -c copy out.opus cue made without the original CD may not be accurate (if you choose the wrong pressing) and almost certainly will be incomplete (in that it only has track boundaries, none of the other things that go in cue sheets), but it should be fine for your purposes. If you don't have the original CD, you might be able to generate a cue sheet via the website cuesheet heaven, which re-interprets freedb data. ![]() This cue sheet is a text file which will contain, among other things, precise track boundaries which the splitter can use. So if you have the original CD, you can use a CD ripping program to generate a. The caveat is that you'll need to make sure you use a player which supports "gapless playback" (encoder delay & padding) info as written in a LAME tag.īoth pcutmp3 and mp3DirectCut support the use of cue sheets for specifying split points. If you're super concerned about accuracy, then you'll want to use the Java command-line app pcutmp3, which is so far the only tool I know of which works around these issues. ![]() It's robust and free, and it has a nice graphical view of the volume level of each frame (you might need to play with the scale a bit), which although is not a true view of the decoded waveform, is usually good enough for the purpose of spotting ideal places to cut. But as long as the split points are in the middle of silence and you're not terribly concerned about losing a fractional second of that silence, then I second the recommendation for mp3DirectCut, a Windows app. This is due to complications related to various features and side-effects of MP3 encoding and decoding (the bit reservoir, encoder delay, padding, and decoder delay). However there's a penalty: a split-second of audio around the split points often becomes unplayable, sometimes resulting in a skip or click if the audio there isn't silent. General-purpose audio editors decode MP3s and then re-encode upon saving, so avoid those.ĭedicated MP3 splitters usually slice on frame boundaries, thus the audio is not being decoded and re-encoded, which is good. ![]()
