- Your mileage may vary when it comes to `Keyframe cut` vs `Normal cut`. You may need to try both, depending on the video. [ffmpeg](https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Seeking) also has documentation about these two seek/cut modes. `Keyframe cut` means `-ss`*before*`-i` and `Normal cut` means `-ss`*after*`-i`.
- You may try to enable the new "Smart cut" mode. However it is very experimental and may not work for most files.
- When exporting you may lose some proprietary data tracks (like `tmcd`, `fdsc` and `gpmd` added by GoPro). These can however be losslessly exported to separate files.
- If you cut a file, but the duration of the exported file is incorrect (or the same as input), try to disable all tracks except for the video track.
- EXIF/metadata can be preserved (see Export Options dialog), but it doesn't always output compliant files, so use it carefully.
- Some codecs are not natively supported, but will preview with low quality playback and no audio. You may convert these files to a supported codec from the File menu, see [#88](https://github.com/mifi/lossless-cut/issues/88).

- **MPEG TS** files have a tendency to be a bit problematic. It may help to **first** remux them to another format like MP4/MKV. Then you can open the MP4/MKV file an work on that.
- Can LosslessCut be batched/automated using a CLI or API?
- No, it was never designed for that. However there are a few feature requests regarding this: [#980](https://github.com/mifi/lossless-cut/issues/980) [#868](https://github.com/mifi/lossless-cut/issues/868)
