VLC Player Video Trimming: Is it possible?

In principle, it is possible to cut videos with VLC Player. However, you won't find a corresponding tool for this purpose as you would with more complex video editing programs. Instead, you will have to take a slight detour to cut a video.

How to trim video with VLC Player

VLC Media Player is a free software for playing and editing audio and video files. The program has been available since 1996 and is popular mainly because it can handle a wide range of different file formats.However, the program is less suitable for detailed editing of files. For this, it lacks appropriate tools that are available in other programs for video processing. This includes the possibility to cut videos. Nevertheless, it is theoretically possible to trim videos to the desired format using VLC Player. To do this, you need to use the recording function and record the right sequence along with it. However, there is no function for compiling individual sequences. If you want more features, you can use the VideoLAN Movie Creator program instead. Dieses stammt von den Entwicklern des VLC Players und ist extra für den Schnitt von Videos ausgelegt.
