Looking for the best Free or almost free Video editing software

Hi Ruth - I know some community members use Free Video Cutter for basic video editing. It's a lightweight solution but does a great job cutting up video clips.

One of my favorite "swiss army knife" type toolsets is AVS4You .  Bunch of handy little tools for less than $60 lifetime subscription.....   Video editing, Video conversion, Image Editing, Document Conversion, Audio Editing, etc etc.   And it's decently supported with documents, tutorial clips, and a community for answers.

If you're on a PC, Windows Movie Maker is a good, free option for making basic edits, etc.

Thanks for the suggestion David.

Thank you Bob. This is more like what we are looking for. I used your link, but I was disappointed to not find anything that describes the features and/or any demos. I have requested more info so hopefully they will get back to me. Thanks again!

Hopefully will be a good match for you.  If you like.... in addition to the "features overview" for each tool on that main page, you can go to the Knowledge Center (via either Help or Support tables) and browse either the "How To Videos" for each tool, or the documentation (screen shot versions).  Both will give you a nice feel for the interface and features available.

Here is an example of how to add a fade in/out to a video.

Thanks Bob. I couldn't get anything to play from that page. Am I missing something?

Hi Ruth,

I think those particular videos are Flash-based?

By the way, responding to posts here directly via email exposes your contact information contained in the email. You may wish to edit.

My favorite video editing tools are iMovie (Mac), Camstasia, GoAnimate and Showbox

I  know a professional video cutting tool that could help you. It's Joyoshare Media Cutter which can cut any video and audio at lossless quality.
