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). |

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. ;-) |
