Simple Video Editor

Post by Ernie »

I'm looking for a simple, good-working video editor for $50 or less. (prefer free) I don't want any of this free trial stuff or can't export unless paid version, etc. (unless the paid version is cheap.)

I normally use Windows Video Editor but it is not working for large files.

Have you looked at Handbrake?

Is it biblical? Is it Christlike? Is it loving? Is it true? How can I find out?

I downloaded it. Not sure how to use it. May need some guidance.

What all do you need the video editor to do? Different video editors have different capabilities.

Handbrake is good for editing a sermon recording, cutting out the part you need, etc. If you need to splice video together, that might be something else, or there may be a way to do it with Handbrake. Regardless, knowing your needs would be helpful so I can ask people who know these things better than I do.

All I need to do is cut, delete sections, add pauses or pictures between video sections, and then splice.

If you have access to a Mac, the Apple Mac built in video tools are very easy to use.
