asking for suggestions appropriate video editing programme

[pasja]

I am looking for a video editing programme, but I am lost in the numerous possibilities. Therefore I would appreciate suggestions.
My demands are:
1: should read TS files
2: should be able to crop and to expand cropped region to full size (16:9)
3: should be as simple as possible; I am not interested in many features or creativity.
Till here I found the (paid) programme Total Video Converter (Bigasoft), which is ok for 1-3.
However, I would also like to adjust the overall brightness in the video. And the Total Video Converter is not able to do. Any further suggestions?

Sorry not having looked better in the trial version.
Total Video Converter offers indeed the possibility to adjust for brightness and contrast.
No need to look further for me.
Sorry.
