With Avidemux, users will be able to select, cut, and save a portion of a large video. Convert a particular video to a different video format or compress it to a smaller size. Avidemux video filtering features allow users to crop a video, resize its picture, add color profiles, and more. In addition, the video editor provides audio filters that make them change the audio volume of a video file as well as the frame rate.

Avidemux has task automation capabilities thanks to which it is possible to complete smaller video editing projects with ease. Avidemux offers three basic operations that users can do with this software: cutting, encoding, and filtering. Cutting means choosing a part of a video that can either be deleted, copied or saved with a different file. This is very useful in removing commercials from a recorded TV show or selecting and saving a small part of a video that users are interested in.

Avidemux encoding feature can be used for archiving videos for personal collection or business use. As part of its task automation features, Avidemux uses custom scripts that enable users to easily store and apply the settings and configurations as they edit videos.

Custom scripts are tinypy files (tinypy is a minimalist implementation of Phython in 64k of code), and they contain selections and configurations of video encoder, video filter, and audio filter and format. With Avidemux scripting capabilities, projects or videos can use the same set of filters or configurations very often.
