FrameCut open-sources a lightweight Mac video editor for Apple silicon
开源中国 reports that a developer open-sourced FrameCut, a free, watermark-free Mac vlog editor that is 2.3 MB and supports only Apple silicon Macs. According to the developer, it uses the Media Engine for encoding, Metal for color grading and transitions, and the Neural Engine for speech-to-text subtitles. On an M2, the developer measured export times of about 26 seconds for a three-minute 1080p vlog and 95 seconds at 4K; no independent measurements were supplied.
FrameCut offers a lightweight, open-source editing option with hardware-accelerated Apple silicon workflows, though its compatibility, features, and performance remain developer-reported.
平时拍 vlog 用剪映，很多功能要会员，所以自己写了一个，先给自己用，顺手开源了。FrameCut 只支持 Apple 芯片，把芯片里的专用硬件都用上了： 编解码走媒体引擎，调色和转场走 Metal GPU ，语音转字幕走神经网络引擎，CPU 基本闲着 M2 上实测，3 分钟 vlog 导出 1080p 约 26 秒，4K 约 95 秒，已经顶到硬件编码器的上...
