Lossless Cut

I used to cut videos with ffmpeg on the commandline if the task was simply "take frame xxx to frame yyy from this file". Because editing software was needlessly complex for that simple task and often I didn't want re-encoding.

It's a GUI frontend for ffmpeg for exactly that task. It's easy to use yet well featured (stuff like skipping through keyframes) but not beyond what's needed. Nice!
