Avidemux 2.8.1

This program can easily be called a functional video file converter, and you will also get a sufficient number of functions for video editing. The application can work with a fairly extensive list of formats, including FLV, MKV and some others. If you decide to download Avidemux, you will also learn that the program contains various filters that are aimed at improving the quality of the source video file. I forgot to add, the application works with different video codecs, for example x264, LAME, Aften and others.

The most popular video formats are supported, including AVI, MPEG, MP4/MOV, OGM, ASF/WMV, MKV and FLV.
Using the application, you can perform basic operations of cutting, copying, pasting, deleting, changing the frame size, splitting the file into several parts, etc. There are all kinds of filters for image and sound (resizing, deinterlacing, IVTC, sharpening, noise removal, and others) . There are ready-made settings for video encoding for some popular devices (iPhone, iPod, PSP, Microsoft Zune). The built-in calculator allows you to calculate the optimal encoding parameters when the size of the resulting file is important.
To convert video files, you do not need to connect any external codecs or modules; Avidemux is distributed as an all-inclusive set. Codecs x264, Xvid, LAME, TwoLAME, Aften and many others are already present in the program.

Avidemux, unlike most other programs of this type, does not lead users into a dead end when performing some operations, for example, trimming a video file to the amount you need, here all this can be done in a couple of mouse clicks, it is quite clear and without the Russian interface. The advantage of development can also be called a free license; many developments require you to pay money for performing these operations.
So, in order for Avidemux to trim your video file, you just need to select it and click on the Delete button, and for example, to transcode a video, you just need to select a video format from among the available ones, then save, nothing more is required from you. By the way, when you select the file trim boundaries, there is a special second-by-second rewind, so you can always accurately set the beginning and end of the file. Avidemux allows you to customize existing filters, there are tools for post-processing, a built-in decoder, I hope you like the program.
Note that while it claims to handle MPEG clips, I encountered an "H.264" bug that meant it had to run in "Safe" mode and resulted in a few frames being lost.
Restored AC3 and MP2 encoding (2.5.5 regression introduced) Added support for the latest x264 kernel Improved compatibility with some FLV files Updated FFmpeg libraries (version 0.9). Drag and drop no longer blocks the source application for the Qt interface. It's decided. Windows XP 32- (regression introduced 2.5.5) Windows 7 taskbar now displays encoding progress Improved crash reporting in Windows, especially fixes for Win64 Compilation for OS X Snow Leopard and Lion (thanks to nibbles) Various minor fixes and improvements

To sum it up: Avidemux is a free video editor designed to perform simple cutting, filtering and encoding tasks. Tasks can be automated using projects, job queues, and powerful scripting capabilities.
