Trimma Passthrough Cutting overview

Trimma is the easiest way of quickly cutting videos without any hassle. No project creation like in iMovie, no strange export settings that change the video's resolution.

Just follow these simple steps:

1. Open the video

2. Insert cuts to quickly remove unwanted parts

  • quickly scroll through your video or use the cursor keys for precision steps
  • use the toolbar buttons or the hotkeys A / S to quickly add / remove cuts.
  • insert a cut in the red area will end the red area at the current position

3. Choose an export preset

  • Passthrough - keep the original encoding, small files stay small, export is blazing fast
  • HEVC - The High Efficiency Video Codec uses the power of h265 encoding to video to a tiny file. Great for sharing with other Mac / iOS users!
  • AVC - The Advanced Video Codec uses the power of h264 and also creates small video files. Files are not as small as with HEVC, but compatibility with older systems is better
  • Thumbnail - The only free preset. It generates a small video with low quality. Fast in export and gives an idea of what to expect from the export.

4. Export - yeah, it's really not more complicated

What's new in version 2.2

  • Frame counter: The details panel now shows the current frame number and total frame count while scrubbing or editing
  • Fixed: Exported MP4 files were not fully compatible with QuickTime Player

Trimma is the only "trimming" app I've found that actually splits the video exactly where I place the cut. With others, you're lucky if you get within 10 frames of the desired cut. That's really frustrating. Passthrough output is almost instantaneous. Well worth the cost.

There's no option in MacUpdate to specify that the app uses subscription. So to clarify: it's free to download but has to be unlocked via in-app purchase. Sorry for the confusion!

MacUpdate should check well all the apps before writing "Free • Absolutely Free"
