Cutting and merging of 360-degree videos with LosslessCut

With Insta360 Studio, although you can slice 360-degree
videos (from Insta camera) as you like, the software is currently not
suitable for merging.
But if you just want to cut out of 360-degree content
without transitions, or merge clips together,
LosslessCut is a fast and free solution that's perfect for you,
and it can handle full-resolution video too.
Since 360-degree videos cannot be merged with the
screenshots, they can be viewed by clicking on the links
that pop up in the video.

Sadly, I can't get merging two 360 videos to work with the current version. Does it still work for you? Maybe I'm missing a new setting. The only settings changes I made were checking the two boxes you showed.

I just tried it, with the latest version (3.59.1.0) and with the default settings, it can merge 360-degree videos. Of course, the video codecs must be identical.
Unfortunately, I have not yet found a solution for the starting view of the given 360 video segment. That is, if, for example, I want to start with the sky in one of the scenes, how can I do that in Insta360 Studio. With the "Direction lock" switch, you can move the point of view somewhat, but it is not exact. Probably, the camera should be in the desired direction when recording.

​​@@mcelec7603To be more accurate, LosslessCut is able to merge the videos, but to get the projection metadata back in to be able to move/zoom, I had to use this ExifTool command.
exiftool.exe -api largefilesupport=1 -tagsFromFile SAM_100_0214.mp4 -all:all SAM_100_0214-merged-1713395048013.mp4
