    Is there a freeware trimmer for MP4 video files someone can point me to?

    I simply want to cut some time off the end of a video made with a Flip Camcorder. I don't want to re-encode the file. I just want to make a trim to the existing file.

    Freeware trimmers for AVI files are easy to find, but when I convert my MP4 to an AVI it gets extremely blocky.

    I tried TMPGE, but it didn't like the file and lost the sound and reduced the quality of the video when it did the re-encode thing.

    Thanks for any suggestions on this.

    Try Avidemux. Leave video and audio at "copy", set format tho "mp4"
    and use the A & B buttons on the timeline to select the video you want.
