La mia esperienza complessiva con Avidemux è generalmente positiva. Programma che fa quello che per cui è stato creato in maniera veloce, precisa e senza fronzoli. E tutto gratuitamente.

Pros

Mi è piaciuto che è gratuito, semplice nel utilizzo, grafica molto intuitiva adatta anche ai principianti ed è veloce nello svolgere le operazioni basic

Cons

Mi è piaciuto di meno il fatto che è troppo basic, ha poche funzioni. Dovrebbe essere implementato con l'aggiunta di nuove funzioni sempre utili al utente medio

Esperienza positiva per l'utilizzo che ne ho fatto: video-cutting e montaggi semplici. Carica e scarica i file piuttosto rapidamente.

Pros

Le funzionalità essenziali per il video-cutting sono subito ben visibili, in un unico pannello si riescono a gestire più opzioni di in-put e out-put video.

Cons

Interfaccia datata. Ciò non ne pregiudica l'efficenza ma aumenterebbe la usability se si adattasse ai template di ultima generazione.

Besides that it's free, it's handy software. Small and fast. You don't get many of those around these days. I recommend using it primarily for lossless editing - you can cut and merge video clips and add filters. It has its issues, like it used to crash all the time but is relatively stable now. One of my favourite free software, period!

Pros

The best free program I've used. It is great for simple video edits, trimming and splicing videos losslessly. It's not for serious and advanced video editing work, so one must appreciate the simple things- intuitive, cross-platform- it works on both Windows and Mac. Also, it can transcode and re-encode a video into different formats.

Cons

It's a free software, and the expectations are really low. Sometimes audio gets distorted on video import. When I try to save an appended video with only mp4 files, it freezes, stops responding and crashes; it's just one glitch after another. There's no timeline with multiple tracks.

I overall had a good experience with Avidemux. Once I got used to the software, I was able to easily edit and clip videos.

Pros

I liked how easy this software this was to use. It allowed me to easily edit and clip videos in seconds. I also liked that it was free.

Cons

There was a bit of a learning curve with this software. This software is also a bit bones compared to other software that does the same thing.

Avidemux is an easy to use and functional tool for all the basic tasks of the video files editing: you can cut, merge, subtitle, add logo, apply soundtrack, encode, add generic effects etc. It is very handy when you are to make a video promo quickly from some filmed material and upload it to you corporate website or social network page. It's user interface is very similar to the earlier popular but outdated now VirtualDub. You can avoid bothering yourself with all that containers, codecs etc. staff, just choose the target file extension like MP3 or AVI and save what you have edited. Of course it lacks the might of the professional video editors like Adobe Premiere, but any everyday office task can be performed with it, and all that for free.

Pros

It is very easy to use, you should not be a video editing professional or a container/codec guru. It performs all the everyday office tasks such as an uploadable promo video creation. It works with all the popular video file formats. It does not require any 3rd party audio/video software such as codecs etc. It is free and up to date.

Cons

Until now I did never encounter any video editing task which was not supported by this software. I just can't point out any faults.

Reasons for choosing Avidemux

It provides all the functions we need, and at the same time it is easy and it is free,

I am using Avidemux to edit video captured from VHS.

Pros

I can edit and transcode with it any kind of video. It is an excellent linear video editor. i like the transcode feature too.

Cons

I can barely convince it to do batch transcoding (multiple video at the same time). The software had, at a previous time, an add-on to do that, but I didn't found it recently.

Too simple, not much features but some people like it that way, it can be less confusing! Great for young kids who want to practice video making!

Pros

I like how simple and easy it is to use. For sure, beginners, really great for when kids want to learn how to video edit. Best for making quick videos.

Cons

Its a bit too simple, not many features.
