This detector looks for image changes that settle. It is not a frame-accurate film-cut detector.

How to use it

Choose a video, run detection and inspect the previews. Adjust sensitivity if needed, then save the timestamp list.

Does it split the video into separate clips?
No. It exports a CSV of detected times. Motion and transitions can cause extra or missing results, so review them. This standalone tool is free and needs no account.
