Ok so after I edit the videoexport script into the /usr/local/bin
directory, I put   /usr/local/bin/videoexport "%DIR%/%FILE%" "%TITLE%"
"%STARTTIME%" "%SUBTITLE%" into the BE general>set-up>user jobs page
and when I want to cut ads I open a terminal and enter the command
substituting appropriate values?
