Simple Video Editor

As its name implies, Simple Video Editor delivers an easy-to-use application for Windows that can carry out basic video editing operations. Designed as a frontend for ffmpeg, this application harnesses its power to deliver a quick and simple means of saving video frames, modifying the playback speed, rotating a video and adjusting its audio, and more.

The application is fully portable, given ffmpeg is kept within the same directory as the main executable file. Simply double-click on the main executable to launch it and it will be up and running in seconds.

The main window requires you to load the video you want to edit, and the embedded player allows you to enjoy the clip. The lower side of the window displays a few frames of the video, five, to be more exact.

Moreover, you will discover a few additional editing tools that allow you to crop the video. Right-clicking on your selection allows you to export the selected frame or the selected area as a picture on your computer. Simple Video Editor is capable of detecting duplicate frames inside a video but be advised that such an option might make the audio go out of sync.

Simple Video Editor also comes with options to rotate a video, modify its playback speed, mute audio and adding subtitles to a clip. The built-in subtitle editor features a tiny but fully functional subtitle editor that allows adding new lines in the loaded subtitle file.

Designed as a frontend for ffmpeg, Simple Video Editor allows you to crop, rotate and convert a video. It can manage and export video frames, delete duplicate content, add subtitles to a video, change its playback speed or reduce its framerate. It can carry out basic tasks that ffmpeg can perform, while providing a user-friendly GUI to use instead of the command console.
