Hello,
Does anyone know an easy, affordable (under $50) editor for Mac?
It doesn't need all the bells and whistles. I just want very basic editing,
like clipping, joining, adding audio, titles, etc.
Thanks,
Timothy

You can only import MP4 which is a huge pain in the butt, and it even rejects most of the mp4 videos I have. It's also rigid in the output formats and settings I can do.
It's been one of the most limiting and annoying pieces of software I've ever used.
But rather than debate the merits of iMovie, does anyone have any suggestions? -
MPEG StreamClip is a free basic GOP-level editor you could try, although it's hard to recommend something without knowing what formats and containers you need to edit beyond mp4. It needs a paid component from Apple for MPEG-2. I use the Windows version, and it has difficulty with HD video files, I do not know if the same is true for the OS X version.
AviDemux https://www.videohelp.com/tools/AviDemux is another freeGOP-level editor with an OS X version you could try.Last edited by usually_quiet; 20th Jul 2012 at 15:49.

...although, as far as I've seen, there currently isn't a build of AVIDemux available that will work on OS X Lion. The OP hasn't specified which version of OS X he is using.
Also, MPEG Streamclip needs the pre-Quicktime X version of the MPEG-2 component to work; Snow Leopard and Lion come with Quicktime X by default, which includes its own version of the functionality of the component - though MPEG Streamclip can't use it.If cameras add ten pounds, why would people want to eat them? -
Did you try the illustrious "Mac Forum"?
I think they have ipad apps that do editing. I saw a commercial with an iphone projecting a video on the side of a building, and a bunch of ipods playing music like a symphony.
According to their advertising, i-devices can do it all.

To get AviDemux working on Lion:
Select avidemux2.app in finder, right click and show package contents.
Delete the files libxml2.2.dylib and libiconv.2.dylib from the Contents/Resources/lib folder.
The latest universal binary version available is 2.5.4.
For anything newer than that, you'll have to build it yourself.What exactly is rotten in Denmark? -
