what's the Jow Forums's approved video editing tool for Windows?
I mean something as complex as Windows Movie Maker (RIP), I just need it for cutting out parts of video

Windows Movie Maker 2012, the only version that exports to MP4.

avidemux

ffmpeg

Avidemux is full of bugs.
How do you cut video without a GUI? How do you figure out where to cut?

I use Blender for video editing. It's fairly competent and free. I do 3D shit as a hobby though so I'm already familiar with the daunting interface.

but it cuts videos into little pieces like your pinus should be sliced and diced

Blender, if you want a complete video editing program and have patience to sit through youtube tutorials and whatnot.
Kdenlive if you want something that is intuitive and just works.
Shotcut, if you just want to cut videos.
John Powell
just use photos

Fucking dumbass.

First read this trac.ffmpeg.org
I use mpv, if you click on the timestamp it will show you miliseconds precision (see pic), you can use . and , keys to browse frame by frame backwards and forwards. Then just tell ffmpeg where to cut.
John Young
i do the exact same thing, works pretty good if you're not a brainlet
Asher Phillips
If you're cutting on keyframes it would be much simpler to just use mkvtoolnix

>How do you cut video without a GUI?
I use my video player to view the video and get the time codes, then I just feed 2 timecodes to ffmpeg via a script that actually cuts the video (stream segment copy, not transcoding A-B).
When I have all my segments I run another script that concats them all in the order I want.
I have come to prefer using my OS and tools on it as the editor than rely on a single suite that does it all in 1 program/window.
I like my media player, I like my encoder, I like my file manager, I'm going to use those over a jack of all trades suite, crammed into 1 workspace.

So you're a retarded apologist for the horrendous meme known as free and open source "software".
Got it.

This pretty much, Kdenlive is comfy af desu, I rarely use an editting tool, but Kdenlive is the best i have used on Linux, Blender can do more, but for the few edits it takes me too much effort to use.

Davinci Resolve 14 free version is functional, forever and barely limits what you can do.
Thomas Russell
there are user scripts for mpv so you can hit a keybind and it will send the time to ffmpeg and make the clip for you.
Nathaniel Allen
But I need to specify the codec, codec parameters, filters, metadata, whether to use twopass encoding or not, so scripts wouldn't help me too much.

I found out about Pitivi recently. I have to say it's pretty comfy desu.

Premiere Pro is the only option if you're actually serious about video editing.
