Good for: Cutting/trimming clips (like isolating a highlight from a long recording) without re-encoding — so it's instant and there's zero quality loss. Free and open-source, works on Windows/Mac/Linux. Not for adding effects, text, or transitions — ...
LosslessCut: Fast, lossless video trimming tool
