For years I have been using the very nice avidemux as my quick and dirty video editor. While not frame accurate, it performs most basic functions quite well. Trimming, chopping into scenes, transcoding to/from most common and many uncommon formats, repackaging into various popular containers. Correcting trivial A/V sync issues. Those basic things without the weight of tools like kdenlive. Unfortunately, the port uses the unsupported qt4 which will soon vanish from ports. The latest version if avidemux, 2.7, uses qt5,but my attempts fo build 2.7 on FreeBSD have failed. (Assembler issues. Tried both yasm and nasm.) Can anyone recommend a replacement? My requirements are: Copy A/V streams into a new container... mp4, mkv from older ones Save scenes from a file into separate files Delete portions of the A/V stream and save the remainder (trimming) Must be graphical. ffmpeg can do everything, but requires considerable time and effort to pick the edit points while avidemux makes this simple... especially abillity to skip to the next/last I-frame.
