<p>If you're looking to only trim videos, I would recommend checking out ffmpeg. It's easy to use from the mac terminal and is able to trim videos with -ss and -t. For downloads and documentation visit:</p>

<p>On Windows, I've used <a href="https://www.solveigmm.com/en/products/video-splitter/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Solveig Multimedia Video Splitter</a> and it will cut the video on exactly the time range listed (example: <code>00:11:34.004</code> to <code>00:34:45.005</code>)</p>

<p>I've tried a freeware app <a href="https://electronjs.org/apps/losslesscut" rel="nofollow noreferrer">LosslessCut</a> (which uses FFmpeg) and it only trims cuts on the B-frames I think.</p>

<p>Any suggestions? Thanks.</p>

On Windows, I've used [Solveig Multimedia Video Splitter](https://www.solveigmm.com/en/products/video-splitter/) and it will cut the video on exactly the time range listed (example: `00:11:34.004` to `00:34:45.005`)

I've tried a freeware app [LosslessCut](https://electronjs.org/apps/losslesscut) (which uses FFmpeg) and it only trims cuts on the B-frames I think.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

There are loads of tutorials on Youtube how to use this program for various reasons.

It's main usage is 3D Modelling and Rendering, but it also has a very good video editing section, which uses `ffmpeg` for export compression.

It handles both B-frames, frames and ss:mm:hh.
