Download LosslessCut 3.63.0: Best Video Editing Tool

LosslessCut is designed to be the premier cross-platform GUI for FFmpeg, enabling rapid and lossless editing of video, audio, subtitles, and other media files. Its standout feature is the ability to perform lossless trimming and cutting, which is perfect for efficiently managing large video files from cameras, drones, or GoPros. With LosslessCut, you can swiftly isolate the highlights from your recordings and eliminate several gigabytes of unnecessary footage without the sluggish process of re-encoding, which risks quality loss. Furthermore, it facilitates the seamless addition of music or subtitle tracks to your videos without encoding, thanks to the robust capabilities of FFmpeg that handle the heavy lifting.
