* Term) Frame and Keyframe
Bandicut is able to cut precisely between "any frames" that the user selects. Other video cutting programs are only able to cut between "keyframes." However, Bandicut allows users to precisely select the cutting area and quickly cut the selected area by frame instead of just keyframes.
Frame: A frame is a single shot of a series of still transparent pictures that form a video. (A frame contains partial information of a still scene.)
Keyframe: A video file has a limited number of keyframes - not every frame is a keyframe. A keyframe is a frame used to indicate the beginning or end of a change made to the signal. (A keyframe contains full information of a still scene.)
If there is a 30 FPS video, it will have 30 "Frames" and may have 1~5 (?) "Keyframes" per second.
