Video Trimmer: A No-nonsense, Simple Video Trimming Application for Linux Desktop
|
||
======
|
||
|
||
_**Brief: A dead simple tool to trim videos quickly without re-encoding it. Here, we take a look at what it offers.**_
|
||
|
||
You probably are already aware of some of the [best free video editors][1] for Linux but not everyone needs all the features offered.
|
||
|
||
Sometimes you just want to perform a single operation quickly, for instance — trimming a video.
|
||
|
||
Would you rather choose to explore a full-fledged video editor just to perform a simple trim operation or prefer a quick tool to help you trim the video?
|
||
|
||
Of course, it would depend on your personal preferences and what you’d want to do with the video. But, for the majority of the users, a tool that makes it super easy to trim a video will be the preference.
|
||
|
||
Hence, I’d like to highlight a dead simple open-source tool to trim videos quickly – “[Video Trimmer][2]“.

### Video Trimmer: A simple application to trim videos quickly
|
||
|
||
Video Trimmer is an open-source application that helps in trimming video clips without re-encoding them.
|
||
|
||
So, basically, you’ll be able to trim videos without losing the original quality.
|
||
|
||
All you have to do is – just open the video file using Video Trimmer and then select the region to trim using the mouse.
|
||
|
||
You can manually set the time range to trim or just drag the region to trim using the mouse. Of course, it could take a while to manually set the timestamp if it’s a long video file and you don’t know where to look at.
|
||
|
||
To give you an idea, take a look at the screenshot below to see the options available when using Video Trimmer:

|
||
### Installing Video Trimmer on Linux
|
||
|
||
Video Trimmer is only available as a Flatpak package on [Flathub][5]. So, you should be able to install it on any Linux distribution with Flatpak support without any issues.
|
||
|
||
In case you didn’t know about Flatpak, you might want to refer our guide on [using and installing Flatpak][6].

|
||
|
||
### Wrapping Up
|
||
|
||
Video Trimmer uses [ffmpeg][7] underneath it. What it does can be done easily [using ffmpeg commands][8] in the terminal. But then not everyone wants to use terminal for cutting part of a video. Tools like Video Trimmer help such people (like me).
|
||
|
||
For some reason, if you want to look for an alternative to this, you may try [VidCutter][9] as well. Of course, you can always rely on [top video editors available for Linux][10] (like [OpenShot][11]) to trim videos along with the ability to perform some advanced operations.
