Good video editing software?

Post by Kingpin »

Hey everyone, was wondering what video editing software you use? I've been using Windows Movie Maker but it is just very limited, anyone have any free suggestions? Cheers

I use Sony Vegas Pro 12.

If you're looking for something free, VirtualDub is fine if you have no need for non-linear editing (i.e. timeline editing, etc). If you do want non-linear video editing though, there's Lightworks, which I've never tried.

If all you need is a tool that can encode Fraps footage (or others) with the option to trim the start and end time of the video, I highly recommend HandBrake.

Thanks! I use nvidia Shadowplay to record ingame footage.
