Avidemux a free video editor help to edit video

Avidemux is a free and open-source video editing program designed for video editing and video processing. It is written in C++, and uses either the GTK+ or Qt.

Avidemux still employs the same simple, easy-to-use interface. You simply set A and B markers, then cut out what you don't want. Most pertinent options are on the main page so you don't have to go hunting. You can also append files. As long as they're the same type, no re-encoding is performed, though you may have to use Smart Copy when you save (which makes sure navigation information is correct).

Avidemux supports one stream only. You can't layer or merge tracks as with some of the more advanced for-pay editors. It's also a bit technical, so be prepared to do your homework on video formats and editing if you want to use the more granular settings. However, if you're willing to go old-school and work without a storyboard or the ability to insert a video into the middle of another video, it'll get the job done and then some. For quick-and-dirty video trimming, it can't be beat.

Multithreading has been implemented in the following areas of Avidemux (some partially through libavcodec):
Encoding
H.264/MPEG-4 AVC (using x264)
MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 (using libavcodec)
MPEG-4 Part 2 (SP/ASP, using libavcodec or Xvid)
Xvid requires the latest version from the CVS
Decoding
MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 (using libavcodec)
MPEG-4 Part 2 (SP/ASP, using libavcodec)
