Anyone got recommendations for an uncomplicated video editor accessible with a screen reader? Don't really care which platform it's on. I thought Reaper could do this, but when I edited and exported, I lost the video portion of the project somehow. Don't need anything fancy, nor do I want to have to spend hours learning the thing. Really just need to cut Bits out, but not just trimming from beginning or end.

@Ricky Enger Although it's an electron based app lossless-cut is one of the great ffmpeg frontents usefull for cutting videos. It has a lot of built-in keyboard shortcuts and it's very customizable. I'm using it with orca on linux, but I know other folks are using it with nvda on windows.

@pvagner Can it do stream dubbing too? While I can mess with FFmpeg on CLI the kind of complicated stream merging and filtering is beyond me.

@x0 @Ricky Enger You can choose which streams to include in the output. There is a tool that allows concatenating the files. I don't know what exactly stream dubbing is.

@pvagner Take audio from one file and video from another file and mux them together, sorry I could have been more clear about that.

@x0 @Ricky Enger Yes this is listed as supported feature in their readme file although I don't yet know how to do it with lossless-cut. I'd use ffmpeg on the command line for this.
