Video Trimmer

What Video Trimmer is
Video Trimmer is a free Linux desktop application for cutting a video between chosen start and end timestamps. It trims without re-encoding, so the operation is designed to run quickly while preserving video quality. The GNOME app page directs users to Flathub for the latest version, where the software is listed as free for desktop and mobile use. Flathub lists aarch64 and x86_64 architectures. GNOME lists version 26.03.1, released May 26, 2026. That release corrected cases where earlier frames appeared in trimmed output when played by some software, including VLC and Firefox. The app page links to an issue tracker for reports and feedback, and Flathub links to source code on GNOME GitLab. Ivan Molodetskikh is named maintainer. The Free plan costs nothing, with no usage limits stated.
