CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Making simple crop edits to videos of all formats shouldn't be tricky business, but most tools out there either do way too much or are so belabored with ads that who knows what evil lurks within their code.
Open-source on the GNU license, Avidemux is a breath of fresh air. Cropping a video is as simple as selecting the section you want to remove and then hitting the Delete key. Re-encoding a video is equally painless: select the output format from the drop-down list, save the file, and you're good to go. When choosing where to start and stop a crop, there's both incremental and multisecond advance and rewind tools, There's also a not insubstantial list of video and audio codecs that files can be converted to. Video formats include multiple codecs for FLV, MPEG, AVI, VCD, H.263/4, and others, while audio formats include MP3, AAC, Ogg Vorbis, WAV, and one or two more.
The program also includes advanced options, including generic decoder and post-processing tools, user-defined filters, GlyphSet adjustments, and more features. Avidemux should appeal to users of all abilities who are looking for a quick way to edit down video files.

Version: Avidemux 2.4.1 R4114
Pros: I am an elderly novice PC user but was able to figure out how to use this software quite quickly. I have been using it for about 2 yrs, I was using the paid commercial software Video ReDo, but find this serves me just as well. It is open source software which is quite regularly updated. If you wish to remove adverts ( which I use it for amongst other things) from anything which you may have captured on TV this will do it quite easily.
It is free and very good software and can recommend that you give it a try.

Version: Avidemux 2.4.1 R4114
Pros: It's a great program, from what I can see but you can't test it because it's NOT free to try.
Cons: Can only save first 5 min. of output. If what you're editing has 10min of movie before first cut, then you can't see if the program actually works.

Version: Avidemux 2.4.1 R4114
Pros: This is good free software for editing videos.
Cons: It does not work well on WMV files. I could edit the videos but the sound would not match up no matter what the people on the website forum had me try.
