In the Recording Edit window, it is possible to choose Normal (thumbnails show scene changes) or Fine, where thumbnails are about 15 frames ~ 0.5 second. However, I find that it is possible to move the playhead one frame at the time by using Option - left/right Arrow. But I cannot get it to place the clip markers at these positions; they seem to "snap" to the nearest thumbnail. Have I overlooked some option to move the clip markers instead of the playhead? I am trying to edit out some commercials, but I always end up with 0.2-0.5 seconds of unwanted stuff. So my workflow has been to "rough edit" the recording, convert it to .m4v using Handbrake (this really works the best, giving compact highdef files 300 Mb per 20 min.), then open .m4vin QuickTime Player X, where it is possible to cut out clips with single frame resolution (and add clips), save as .mov and then the final conversion to .m4v using Handbrake. If anyone has a good, visual, mpeg editor with single frame resolution and eyeTV recordings compatibility, I'd love to hear about it.
