A rather simple utility that for some reason requires a login, I see no value in that when there are so many analogs that don't.

Though I agree with the sentiment, the core feature this seems to provide is stock video integration. And stock media services always require login.

Firefox users are asked to please stay away: It looks like your browser is not supported To use Clipchamp, make sure you're using the latest version of Google Chrome, or the latest Microsoft Edge

So sick of sites doing this. Labelbox even does it! Absolutely absurd.

I used this software (the app version) a couple weeks ago for the first time. I grabbed a great clip while playing a game and wanted to show it to a friend, but I didn't want to send the full 500MB 60s video when the clip was only ~6 seconds. I didn't want to spend a ton of time downloading proper editing software so I gave it a shot. It's a little clunky if I'm honest, it feels like an evolution of Windows Movie Mak…

i have similar use cases, avidemux is a small free program and it excels in this trimming scenario. if you dont change video output settings (copy) it will trim in a few seconds, no rendering or transcoding

The feature only snaps to the nearest keyframe though.

Such a Microsofty name, I am a bit confused about ther relationship with Microsoft given the title of the post and MS logo at the bottom of the page.

Linked from their "About us" page: https://techcrunch.com/2021/09/08/microsoft-acquires-video-c...

Look at their jobs page - backend tech is moving from python to c#. Makes sense why now.

For people who don't want to sign up but still like the idea of a video editor running in a browser (that doesn't upload anything), I am working on an alternative: https://vidmix.app

thanks. I don't think I should have to log in to type a document or edit a video. :/ Thank you!

i use windows movie maker. It still exists, you can download it as binary and it's a pretty quick video editor with lots of options. I was unable to figure out the new win10 editor or chipchamp

Kdenlive is pretty decent on windows if you need a bit more control.

this is what I use. Should be more than enough for amateur or home movies and basic effects.
