python3 smartcut.py [-h] [-o OUT] [--profile HQ|HD] [--workingdir <WORKINGDIR>]
[-i <video file>]
<cutlist file>
Currently supported cutlist formats are:
- avidemux project files (cut in avidemux, File -> Project script -> save as project script)
- Cut list format used by onlinetvrecorder.com
If the cutlist specifies the input video file, the -i option is
not necessary but can be used to overwrite the value from the cutlist file.
