Windows Movie Maker comes loaded with pozware (why the fuck would it need to install Microsoft SQL Server Compact?), and anything else I tried turned out to be crappy watermark-ridden shareware or couldn't even output an mp4 file. I just want to crop a freaking mp4 file in 2 places and stitch the damn thing together. Help me out here /tech/-fags.

Vegas if you don't need to do a bunch of composite work and you're mostly just doing run-of-the-mill editing.
Powerful as shit, easy to learn, reasonably lightweight.
▶ No.831380>>831388 >>831407
If all you want to do is that, you may as well just use ffmpeg.

I'd recommend Blender if I could actually figure how to edit easily with the damn thing. Until that time, still sticking with VirtualDub.

What I find really frustrating about cutting in ffmpeg is that there's no way to specify a cut based on frame count. You can only cut using time approximations.

Shotcut for simple things, Adobeshit for anything more.

how do you expect to cut out a B frame when you haven't found the last P or I frame?
▶ No.831420>>831442
>>831352 (OP)
ffmpeg obviously
everything else is bloat and overengineering for such a simple task
ffmpeg can do this even without re-encoding the whole thing, so you can keep original quality and not waste space.

Dunno, but Virtualdub manages to pull off precision frame cutting perfectly fine. Clearly there must be a way.
▶ No.831433
>>831431
Depends on the codec, but any codec that has B frames, it is likely adding together all the frames up to the selected frame to form a full I frame, and then you end up using that.
▶ No.831442

No need for re-encoding, eh?
That's definitely worth a look into.

Blender is a nice weird video editor, at least now has hardware acceleration.
ffmpeg is really good but can get fatiguing when dealing with more advanced shit like green screen effects.
kdenlive and openshot are good choices.

How about you look up something called "Blender VSE" and get back to me.
