[Shop-talk] video editor software

[alfuller194 at gmail.com]

John – you could try the free VLC video player. It has basic cropping, so you could use it for a 1-off [as opposed to regular use in video editing]. 

 

The program is available here: https://www.videolan.org/vlc/

 

Apparently, you have to actually play the video, starting and stopping where you want the crop. While that’s fine for a single video, I wouldn’t want to have to put up with that regularly. I tried it with a .mov someone sent me and it cropped it just fine.

 

I found a decent guide on using VLC for cropping and other video manipulation here: https://www.videoconverterfactory.com/tips/vlc-video-editor.html

 

The guides I found wee not clear on where to find the cropped video. It looks like the default location on a Windows PC is the Videos folder, but you could set a different default before you did the cropping. If you are working in Linux or some other OS like the Apple Linux variants, I’m unsure whether the instructions hold.
