Video editing software

[stiggygonzalez]

What is the best free video editing software out there?
In terms of useability and features.

Windows Movie Maker

.... that's the only one I've used so far and it's very easy to use.

Lightworks is quite good. Although it is complicated and hard to understand at times; you can cut and edit videos, add effects, add audio to a video, and more.

Had a quick look at their website.
Looks legit.
Is it safe to use though,no virus'?

 

[nick09]

Yes. You just have to sign up a account since the software is in beta.

I use Windows Movie Maker 2.6 it is similar to Windows Live Movie Maker here is a link. http://downloadsquad.switched.com/2009/02/11/windows-movie-maker-2-6-available-for-vista-windows-7/. This one is better than Windows Live Movie Maker.

Thanks for input.
I'll look into it.
I've also seen other freeware like: Lightworks,DVDknife 4.0,,Ezvid.
Are these safe to use?

I've checked their website out.
How do I find their list of unsafe websites though?

What's the safest website to download DVD knife 4.0?

 

[Peasantslayer]

I normally use Windows Movie Maker 2.6, it has a bad reputation from all the pros but there are plenty of plugins such as the one which allows you to save your movies as HD.

I'll download it, I'll get back to you.

EDIT: Seems fine to me I'd just ignore Norton, whenever you run an .exe it starts crapping itself. Just make sure to check the bar on the bottom of your web browser when your looking for the right download button on the web page, it's the one above "or add to basket" and then click on "External Mirror 1".

As has been mentioned Windows Movie Maker, I use it all the time. It has basic video effects and video transitions, you can import video, pictures (it has a "take picture" option which takes a picture of your preview screen) and music. I have found one major problem with WMM after using different versions of it on different computers over the course about 6 years which is that it is prone to crashing so get into the habit of saving once every couple of minutes if you use it.

Windows Movie Maker 2.6 is better than Windows Live Movie Maker
