Cliparr 2.0 is out now

What is Cliparr?

Cliparr is a browser-based, simplified video editor with a single purpose: to create and export clips from Plex, Jellyfin, and local video.

What's new?

Check the blog post for the full breakdown, but the biggest change is the new canvas-based timeline editor.

While adding support for editable subtitles, I discovered the timeline component we were using was highly inefficient. Also, no other free or open-source timeline editors existed.

So... we now also have https://canvastimeline.com/ which is a new open-source headless video editor for JavaScript.

Canvas Timeline allows us to load and render literally hundreds of clips without any performance issues.

Also new:

  • Subtitle editor
  • Export size estimation
  • Mobile UI updates
  • Maintenance automations

Aside: When making the Export Size Estimator, it made sense to also release a fully in-browser video converter: https://cliparr.dev/convert/

    This would probably get crazy popular if there was a supported integration for Stash

    Searching for Stash on DDG reveals that the name is shared by at least a finance manager, network tool, and a porn clip organiser (the very last item on the first page of results).

    I am safely assuming you are referring to the third one.

    TIL.

    Ah interesting. Should be fairly doable. I actually inject all of the interesting metadata into the output file as well. So theoretically even we didn't have a proper integration, systems can read that metadata. I hadn't heard about this, I'll look into it. Thanks!

    What's an example use case for this? Not criticising, i seriously cannot think of anything.

    I've got tons of old cartoons that are rife with gif potential, and it'd be pretty fun to be able to quickly/easily snip those out & share 'em.
