Recently, we discussed how we can use Windows Movie Maker as a video cutter to separate out segments from videos easily. I agree the process to cut videos is very simple, but if you are looking for an even easier way to cut out small video segments and are an ardent VLC media player fan then you could do use it as a video cutting tool too.

Below are top 9 best video trimmer and cutter software for Mac and Windows users. You can choose the one that best suits your needs in video trimming satisfaction. You can choose the one that best suits your needs in video trimming satisfaction.
One more advantage of using VLC is that people who use other operating systems like Ubuntu, Fedora or Mac and hence cannot use the Windows Movie Maker, can also use the cross-platform VLC to cut out video clips.
You must download and install the latest version of VLC media player if you don’t have it already. VLC is an excellent player that plays most of the multimedia files as well as video discs and various streaming protocols.
Important Note: We have written an amazing guide on VLC called The Ultimate Guide to VLC Media Player. It’s available as a beautiful page as well as a downloadable ebook. And it includes this how-to on using VLC as a video cutting tool as well. So make sure you check that out.Once you have installed VLC, just follow these simple steps:
Step 1: Launch VLC media player and activate Advanced controls located under the View menu.
Step 2: As soon as you activate the advanced controls you will see four extra buttons above the normal play/pause button. We will use the first button from the left called the record button. Once you have these controls activated add your video. You can use Open File located under the Media menu, but as you know I always prefer drag and drop method.
Step 3: Basically we will not be cutting the video here; we will rather play the video and record the segment using the built-in VLC decoder. So seek to the position you want to start your recording and press both play and record button simultaneously.
Tip: You can use the Frame by frame button (the last button from the left in advance control) to navigate to the exact frame you want to start recording.

Step 4: Again press the Record button when you want to stop the recording. The clip will be automatically saved as an MP4 media file type in your Libraries/Videos folder in Windows 7. I am not sure about Windows XP but you can search for it in either My Documents or My Videos. Similar for the other operating systems.
Watch the Video: If you’re more of a visual kinda person, then here’s our video explaining the above steps. If you like it, share it with your friends too!
My Verdict
The above trick is amazing but the only downside is that the player records the video frame by frame and thus it’s suitable only for small cuts. You will have to sit and watch the video while VLC is recording in the background, so be sure to make it small.

Today’s post was written by Avneesh Kohli, program manager on the OneNote team.
Today, we’re introducing OneNote Clipper 2.0–a major update that offers enhancements for capturingweb content into OneNote and enriching that content to make it more useful. The OneNote Clipper is the easiest way to save anything from the web to OneNote.
Responding to some of the more popular requests from Clipper users, in this update we’ve added a redesigned user interface, a location picker, intelligence (for clipping just what you need, minus the clutter), and region clipping for Chrome.
Redesigned user interface
We’ve designed a beautiful new experience for clipping pages to OneNote in your favorite web browser. It’s clean, takes up significantly less space in your window, and includes animations we think you’ll enjoy.
Location Picker
By far and away, the most popular request from Clipper users was to add more customized clipping location options. Previously, all clippings went to your Quick Notes section by default, however now you can select the notebook and section clippings get sent to.
The Location Picker is front and center in the new Clipper, so you can be confident in knowing that your web clips are going exactly where you want them to go. We provide a list of all notebooks you have stored on OneDrive, including shared notebooks!
To change where you want to store your web clipping, simply click the drop-down menu under Location. Expand the notebook of your choice and select the section you’d like to send your clip to. That’s it!
Of course, having to select a location for each clipping can be a burdensome process. That’s why the OneNote Clipper remembers the last notebook and section you clipped to—perfect for when you are clipping lots of recipes, or collecting inspiration for a new art project.
And because we include your shared notebooks in the Location Picker, it’s simple to share your clips with your friends and family. Just select the shared notebook of your choice, and it’s available to everyone you have given access to that notebook, instantly.

A more intelligent Clipper for the most popular content
People clip all kinds of things to OneNote, but articles, recipes and products top the charts. Unfortunately these sites often include clutter that gets in the way of the content you care about most. That’s why we built a more intelligent Clipper—able to automatically detect that the site you want to clip contains an article, recipe or product. For these web pages, the OneNote Clipper cleans up the page to show you only that content in a neat, organized format, and then shows you a preview.
You simply click the Article, Recipe or Product button on the right side of the Clipper, preview the article, recipe or product, and select Clip to send it to OneNote.
Here’s a glimpse of what the intelligent Clipper can do:
Region clipping
Often, you want to be able to capture a specific part of a web page, whether it’s a confirmation page or a new high score to your favorite web game.
We’ve now built in support for region clipping into our Chrome Extension. If you’ve got the OneNote Clipper Chrome Extension installed, just select Region mode from the Clipper user interface and then click and drag to select the area of the screen you’d like to clip.
Here’s what it looks like:

Happy clipping!
