Install VidCutter 2.6.5 on Ubuntu and Linux Mint Via PPA

VidCutter is Cross-platform Qt5 based app for quick and easy video trimming/splitting and merging/joining for simple quick edits. FFmpeg based backend, which is supplied for Windows, and written in Python3 & the excellent PyQt5 GUI framework.

VidCutter 2.6.5 ChangeLog

major fixes to ensure frame accuracy between player and backend. once loaded
a video framerate is estimated and seeking/stepping by a single step, using
arrow keys or mouse wheel should be closest to a single frame in either
direction. when marking cut points the point in time to the millisecond is also
communicated to the backend. this will all improve even further witha the next
major release which will encompass a move away from Qt's QMediaPlayer
widgets which utilise GStreamer (Linux/Mac) and DirectShow (Windows) to a
libmpv (MPV player) based client.

command line argument support added. run the app from the command line
with --help or -h for the details.

logging enabled, all issues to be dealt with can be more easily tracked via
sharing logs with app author

major code restructure for a more pluggable/adaptable architecture ie.
in future, w/ libmpv if for some reason system cannot support it then
fallback to existing backend (what we have now w/ GStreamer etc.)

Cross-platform Qt5 based app for quick and easy video trimming/splitting and merging/joining for simple quick edits. FFmpeg drives the backend with a stylishly hand edited Qt5 UI. A FFmpeg static binary is preinstalled for both Windows and macOS releases.

For non-windows, use your o/s package manager if on Linux and homebrew for Mac OS X to manage FFmpeg. It is most likely already installed on your Linux or macOS machine.
