11 I've used avidemux, simple and easy. For more involved jobs I have used
12 cinelerra, which is a more professional tool with (much) more functionality
13 than you might need. I have also used projectx (Java application running in
14 MSWindows).

16 However, these days I don't have any of these applications installed and just
17 use 'ffmpeg -ss' to split the original file and 'ffmpeg -f concat' to stitch
18 together the pieces which are of interest to me. I don't advocate this as an
19 easy way to get the job done, but it works as intended each time. ;-)
