anki VS lossless-cut

Try the Anki system…there was someone who learned over 10 languages with that method:

https://apps.ankiweb.net/

And here is the source code for Anki: https://github.com/ankitects/anki

If you want to convince people to use your spaced repetition software over Anki, you need to tell us what's so wrong with Anki that can't be fixed with plugins and that's worth $10 per year.

You must demonstrate value above what Anki does.

I look at your list of projects in https://0xdev.gumroad.com/ and they're all pre-order of things that already exist elsewhere. To me, this smacks of "give me money, and I'll give you promises." Especially the project https://0xdev.gumroad.com/l/HelpFundMe?layout=profile

You want something for free? I'll give you something for free.

Anki absolutely can be improved. For new users, it's very confusing: having multiple decks, the separation between cards and notes, and the search interface are hard for new users.

Combine something that is simpler for new users with a demonstrably better algorithm and you might have a minimally viable product. But you need the product FIRST before you request money.

Give us something that we can run for one week and know that it's better than the free software that is Anki.

This support landed late last year as part of https://github.com/ankitects/anki/releases/tag/23.10

> .apkg imports are able to merge changed notetypes, and can exclude scheduling data

My main use case is for managing my Azeron Cyborg profiles. And recently I have been experimenting with using the mobile controller feature to help do Anki spaced repetition reviews.

Anki Flashcards

For lossless cut, there's the LosslessCut [1] app, which even has an experimental but mostly working version of a "smart cut" feature [2] (aka. only re-encode the minimal mandatory amount of frames if you trim at a point between 2 key frames)

> thought I cropped/edited a video, it is still there in full length and resolution

It's been possible to create a clip from a video file that merely changes what parts of the video are displayed without effecting the data in the original since the Classic Mac OS days.

If you want to completely remove unwanted portions of a video to reduce the size without a loss of quality, there are many options. LosslessCut is one option that is both free and open source.

LosslessCut

Lossless Cut is probably the simplest way to cut out parts of a video without having to re-encode it or use an online service. It is open source, free and available for all platforms. It is in essence a frontend for FFMPEG and cuts without re-encoding, so the results are instantaneous.

Additionally I would like if possible to shorten (both to reduce dimension and to make them less boring) my videos by trimming the beginning and/or ends where often there is nothing interesting happening and possibly change the thumbnails for easier identification. Do you know of any tool that does the job with the minimum quality degradation possible? Many years ago I've tried with some videos and a tool I don't remember anymore, ending up with a bunch of corrupted files :( I've found https://github.com/mifi/lossless-cut for the point above.. need to try it. please let me know what experience you have with it.

Lossless Cut would probably be a better choice for this. Will let you cut out the commercials without having to re-encode the video.

>Of course, you could only re-encode only the GoPs that get broken while keeping the rest intact, and I guess this would be better and a lot faster than re-encoding everything. I don't know if any application tries to do this.

LosslessCut does have experimental support for this partial re-encode called "smart cut" [1]. Since it's using ffmpeg internally, the challenge become how to instruct ffmpeg to do this[2]?
