I have found the software to be very helpful for working with a set of raw video files I have. This is a proprietary format so no COTS software can edit it and I'm finding myself having to work with the HEX data directly to trim clips.
What I'm wondering is if there's a way to deal with enormous arrays of data like this in a more automated fashion. I have a template that parses the header (frame width, frame height, bit depth, frame count) and then each pixel value for the whole array followed by an MS FILETIME timestamp. The frames are about 2MP (1600x1200) and a typical file is about 20000 frames long. I'd like to introduce, for example, a variable like "first_frame" and "last_frame" to specify cut-in and cut-out points, and then have the header frame count updated by evaluating the resulting number of frames. I can do this all manually, of course, but where's the fun in that!?
I realize this is pretty specific, but maybe there's somethign simple I'm missing. Any advice (even if it's "write your own darn program to do this") is welcome.
