There is bunch of FFMPEG features to process audio and video without reencoding. Trimming, cutting, gluing together, track extracting, repackaging and so on.

Do you have any plan to support this kind of lossless workflow? It could be special nodes for lossless processing, able to work without "A/V Media" node.

The main advantage: it's much more faster than common Avisynth-FFMPEG process for such operations.

Hi Alexander,

I do have plans to support repackaging and some metadata manipulation without reencoding. Track extraction is fairly easy to do yourself by running the "Custom FFmpeg"-encoder and more complex audio extraction can be done using "Audio extraction" node. You don't need the "A/V Media" decoder for that. Exact trimming, cutting and gluing without reencoding is only possible with intra-frame material and is fairly difficult to make that easily available without adding complex user interface. That's a lot of work so at the moment you need to use AviSynth, which off course introduce full de/recoding.
