I need to use Video Charge Express to Split hundreds of quicktime movies to different smaller movies all of different lengths and that need to be frame accurate.
I would like to script this and I need to know first if this is doable and second what is the syntax if it's possible. I read the manual but the command line section is very sparse.
I'm guessing it'll be something along the lines of
vccmd config.vcc Quicktime01.mov /time 1-30 NewQuicktime01-01.mov
vccmd config.vcc Quicktime01.mov /time 31-60 NewQuicktime01-02.mov
vccmd config.vcc Quicktime01.mov /time 61-178 NewQuicktime01-03.mov
Any ideas? Is this doable? If not.. is there anything out there that can do this?

The only two things you can specify out of the config file are the input file (or sequence of output files) and creation of the log file. Thus all other settings (including length and name of the output files) can be performed via GUI and kept in the config file only.
Also since you need to split movies into unequal parts (smaller movie of different length), you'll have to specify them manually in the Timeline Editor.
Make use of the File Name Pattern parameter to manipulate the output file name.
Thus (assuming that your movie is placed at c:\videos, all the necessary timelines are selected in the TimeLine Editor and kept in the config file, File Name Pattern is set) the command will look simply like
vccmd config.vcc /f c:\videos\Quicktime01.mov
So it is doable:) However splitting movies into eqaul parts could make the process much easier.
