| I don't find trimming videos with ffmpeg particularly difficult, is just-ss xx -to xx -c copy basically. Sure, you need to get those time stamps using a media player, but you probably already have one so that isn't really an issue. What I've found to be trickier is dividing a video into multiple clips, where one clip can start at the end of another, but not necessarily. |

| I don't find Sharing files with people very difficult, just login to your FTP and give an account to another user.

I just think there are other closely related use cases where a separate program can add more value, especially in the terminal. I wouldn't suggest most people should use ffmpeg instead of a gui, those are too dissimilar. Another example is cutting out a part of a video, with ffmpeg you need to make two temporary videos and then concatenate them, that process would greatly benefit from a better ux. | | |

| FWIW, here's a simple command line utility for joining and trimming the multiple video files produced by a video camera. https://metacpan.org/dist/App-fftrim/view/script/fftrim |

| I used a plugin in mpv to do it but I can't find it anymore. You just pressed a key to mark the start and end. And with . and , you could do it at keyframe resolution not just seconds. |
