SmartCut64 Program Options dialog with task-based tabs
General, Navigation, Playback Devices, Enhanced Features, Titles, Audio Alerts, Output Folders and Start Up are grouped in one dialog.

  • Navigation — configurable time jumps and movement behaviour
  • Playback Devices — monitoring and preview backend choices
  • Enhanced Features — optional workflow/display conveniences
  • Titles — title duration and fade defaults
  • Audio Alerts — completion and attention sounds
  • Output Folders — default project/output destinations and extension
  • Start Up and Favorites — launch and frequently used-location behaviour

Hardware settings

Hardware acceleration includes automatic software fallback, one-adapter use and per-codec self-test recommendations. Full-transcode hardware encoding is off by default; boundary GOP encoding stays software-only.

Persistence

Program options persist for the current Windows user. Project files separately store the edit decisions needed to reproduce a specific output.
