I was looking for a video editor that can help me cut and edit some simple video footage. What are some good choices?

Preference is one with a low learning curve. Paid is alright, as long as I can test it a bit beforehand.

Google is littered with nonsense blogs so I figured id ask the Lems.

    ffmpeg, if you don’t mind the command line… there’s only two options you really have to know for editing, -ss and -t , starting time and length, respectively… also don’t forget that first -i for input file name, output file name is always last
    eg, ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -ss 00:01:40 -t 00:05:00 output.mp4
    that would clip out five minutes starting at a minute forty seconds in
