FAQ

About split video

Are the split points accurate?

Yes. KinoPipe re-encodes and forces keyframes at the requested interval so every segment starts at a valid boundary.

Why can the last segment be shorter?

The final file contains the remaining source duration after all full-length segments.

How are multiple results returned?

The completed job includes an outputs array with a filename, media type, byte size and signed download URL for each segment.
