Movica - A visual front end to some really good tools.

Movica is a software written to take advantage of some really well written, but non-user friendly, tools. Basically three command-line tools exist which were brought together in a simple user interace and this resulted in this tool.

The three tools were:

        * AsfBin - Very, very well done editor for Windows media files
        * MpgTx - A tool being developed largely for POSIX apps. Tiny.
        * flvtool - A tool meant largely for metadata management.

Ideally it is meant for editing the kind of movies that VirtualDub won't. V-Dub is primarily an AVI editor, Movica will work on .wmv, .flv, .rm and .mpg files. This makes it more versatile than Virtualdub.

Here is a list of supported files and functions (from the web site)

The orginal version of this tool was designed to use keyboard shortcuts as a way of inputting, however the author has now relented and put together buttons that can be clicked.

Functions:Movica main screen

- Select or delete multiple portions from a video file.
- Copy, paste and fine tune the selections.
- Join multiple files together
- Split movies into smaller files
- Save and play selected scene without editing the movies

That's it. It isn't particularly complicated and it isn't particularly deep. But what it does it does very well

System Requirements

The program will run on any computer powerful enough to run Windows XP. Since it requires the use of the .NET framework, it will not run on Windows 98. Movica uses the Windows Media Player to play movies. Check for the presence of this tool before you upload this program

Summary

Not particularly complex, a fairly simple interface, but some good, quick functionality. Another free tool to add to the arsenal.
