Machete 3.3 build 33

Machete 3.3 build 33 is a useful utility for playing and editing of multimedia files. Currently, Machete can edit video and audio files in AVI, ASF, WMV, WMA and FLV (Flash Video) formats. Support of editing functions for other formats is planned for future versions of the program.

It is an ideal solution for easy and quick "slicing" of your video files: you can delete unnecessary fragments (e.g. cut out commercials), copy, move, mix and save individual pieces. This means that Machete combines functionality of both video splitter (cutter, trimmer) and video joiner (for joining video files with the exactly the same formats) and more.

None of editing operations in Machete requires re-encoding of video or audio streams. This is why the editing process is very quick and does not lead to any loss of video quality. This puts Machete in the category of lossless video editors. Also, it means that you would not need powerful and expensive computer to edit your video material. After a file is edited and saved, it retains its original format.
