Default What Video Editing Software For GoPro These Days?

I used to have GoPro Studio and I liked it, but it no longer exists. It appears to have been replaced by a bunch of garbage for making look at me YouTube videos unless I'm misunderstanding here. I'm not after anything fancy, in fact if I could get my hands on that GoPro Studio again I'd go right back to it. I just need to be able to put my ~13 minute sessions together and chop off me waiting in grid and post checker nothingness until I turn off the camera, assuming I remember to.

I really like Videopad. Its very quick and easy to use. I think it was like $30 or $40 for a full featured copy.

I used RaceRender for a few years. IIRC it was about 30 or 40 bucks for the full software. Now I just use the youtube editor.

So many options these days.... if just simply cropping the beginning and end, I use a program called MP4Splitter that just crops the video at time points that you tell it to. It does not re-encode the video so it won't sit there and process forever, literally takes a few seconds.

For a basic editor, I used to just use windows movie maker-- basic but really straight forward. Right now I've been using a program called Shotcut which has a lot of nice features and is free/open source. It's probably not quite as intuitive as some but it's not complicated either. I've used the Sony line of sofware (they have basic user to full blown levels) and it was very straight forward and easy. Something like Youtube editor mentioned above might be great too if you're uploading them to youtube anyways.

I have been using Davinci Resolve 15. It's way above my pay grade, but I'm slowly figuring it out.

I have this as well. It’s also 100% free.
