G+_Jim Rodgers Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I am new in the drones, just got a Parrot Bebop. I am looking for a good free video editing software for OSX or Windows for just doing basic trimming. I would also like to export a picture out of a frame in the video.

G+_Shooter_FPV (Shooter_FP Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I would think iMovie for the Mac, but not sure if you can export a frame. For Windows, the best free one I know about is Davinci Resolve. There are probably other good stuff out there, so hopefully more people will answer... And just so you know, my co-worker has a Bebop, with the full controller and everything, and he always seems to have problems with it, mainly fly-aways. His also seems to drift a lot, even though he has a GPS lock. It's actually at his desk as I type... I hope you fare better with yours than his...

G+_Matt Koglin Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 A quick, down & dirty solution for OS X is SimpleMovieX. There are free and paid versions, but I've found the free version is perfect for cutting and exporting video. I wasn't able to find a way to export a single frame as an image, unfortunately, but I think ffmpeg can do that for you. http://simplemoviex.com/SimpleMovieX/index.var Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Black Merc Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 People.... Single frame? Play full screen... Pause... Screenshot grab from a free util.. How complicated are you trying to make this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Ben Reese Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 For frame capture, I usually use VLC. The full-screen and screenshot idea would work too, I guess. For video editing I use Blender. It's far from simple and requires a full re-render when you're done, but it does what I need (mixing multiple videos with transitions and separate audio).

G+_Peter Hanse Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I have used iMovie for projects and worked well. You can also use built in Grab is x app to capture anything on screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_David Peach Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 A couple of years ago my son was into video editing. He used Lightworks. Free for home use. He even took a summer film class at a college and that was their editor of choice. Very capable, but with great capability comes some complication. I personally use Avidemux in Linux, but Lightworks may be a little more powerful. https://www.lwks.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
