Thanks Martin,

My issue with mergeAV is that it is macOS/iOS only and I need macOS and Windows, so I would have to find another solution for Windows and if I use ffmpeg for Windows, I might as well use it for macOS as well so the same command line works across platforms and I am just installing a different version of ffmpeg based upon OS.

If mergeAV was macOS and Windows, I would definitely prioritize it over ffmpeg as a solution. I appreciate the suggestion though. I did not know mergeAV could create clips.

Hi

Look up the mergAVVideoComposition commands etc. in the dictionary.

They are for Mac and iOS.  Lots of versatility to slice dice and concatenate 
clips in a video composition.

If you are on Windows I guess the ffmpeg would work.

You could use ffmpeg for this.

Here‘s a post where it is described how to do it

I have (and still am) considering ffmpeg. It was what I was alluding to with 
the mention of a command line utility called by shell() in my original post. To 
bundle the macOS (~35mb) and Windows (~77mb) adds that size (or that 
compressed) to my Standalone, so my app can install it on the users system (I 
have the sort of computer novice customers that you do NOT want to ask to 
download additional software of). That's not too bad a size increase as my App 
sits at about 200-230mb currently.

Still, I asked the USE-LIST as you never know whether some one out there has 
made a widget that could just be part of the standalone app or someone knows of 
a clever technique or a smaller utility

Thank you.
