Avidemux or VLC should both work fine for the purpose. I’d recommend the former which is purpose-built for editing while it’s more an option within VLC’s other capabilities.

They don't show up that way for me. Can you hit the three-dots menu in the corner of one of the posts and pick "Unmark AxGrap"? You might have accidentally marked them

cerious posted:Hey, got a question for some people more experienced with eBay. I bought a manual focus camera lens, checked it around the house and it seemed like it was working OK, so I left a good review (oops). Then I took it out for a spin yesterday and realized it can't focus to infinity. I submitted some pictures and sent a return request, and the seller fought back hard. He made a stink about me leaving a good review but then saying that it's a defective lens later, meanwhile in his messages he disclosed that he tested it on multiple cameras (listing said he only ever used it on one camera) and that he had it collimated (listing never disclosed any repair history). I called him out on those issues, he said he was getting frustrated with me and that he would escalate to eBay instead and open a case with them. 15 minutes after that, support closes the case and I'm awarded a full refund. It's actually already pending on my bank account now. Did support give you any indication it would come from them or from the seller?

Carillon posted:Did support give you any indication it would come from them or from the seller? Nope. From what I can tell, the page says that my return is complete. When I click back to the return itself, it says that the return is closed because the seller opened a case. When I open the case details, the case outcome says that it was resolved. The seller had marked his item as no returns accepted as well.

I’d recommend the former which is purpose-built for editing while it’s more an option within VLC’s other capabilities.  The Avidemux interface vibes better for me in cueing up the cuts, but all the output codec choices are a bit overwhelming. It's a good start but the next question is how to save the edits without introducing the equivalent of JPG artifacts that would be annoying for future editing.

Jaguars! posted:Yep, windows 10 home I use Avidemux for trimming videos and sometimes combining. Make sure to navigate by "key frames" (I think that is the term, phone posting so I don't have access to my software), select the areas you want to remove (using the A and B markers), delete it, and then save. By default it saves as a MKV container, but you can change that. It should be saving it without re-encoding, so you don't need to be worried about selecting output codecs.

Somewhat related, there are a couple of grammatical errors in Young Folks by Peter Bjorn and John and I wonder if non-native English speakers notice. To me, a native English speaker, I always notice but I think they add to the charm of the song.

Some old meme popped into my head and I have no idea how to look it up. I think it's a parody of Bleach or other fighting Shonen anime where the two combatants keep rambling ad nauseum at each other with extremely long attack names. The dialog is in Japanese and it's something incomprehensible like "saito saito saito Sayama" etc etc Any idea of what I'm talking about?

Teriyaki Koinku posted:Oh, I guess the point is that it's supposed to be a long tongue-twister to help with Japanese oral entertainers get better at their craft? Thanks! Well, as the wiki article discusses, Rakugo is a kind of spoken word performance, always comedy as far as I thought but apparently there's sentimental ones too? The idea is that such a stupidly long name leads to absurd situations, such as a case of the young lad falling into a river and the only person who sees this calls for help but takes so long to say his name that he's long since drowned by the time anyone turns up. So it's not a training thing, although obviously performers need to train to be able to remember this ridiculously long name from memory and say it without stuttering. In the FMA video above they definitely let Bradley read it slowly and sped up the audio. Comparatively actual performers have to say the whole thing live. Here's an English-language performance where he uses the Japanese name but all else is English: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukxr9pv41kg
