People like to shoot and record videos in spare time as their entertainment. You know videos captured with camcorders, smartphones, webcams always contain footages or frames that you don't want. For example, gotta cut out the beginning and the end of a video, need a particular portion from a long video, remove unwanted part, etc? You might think of video editing software when you get in trouble with the cases above. Definitely, it means nothing for a professional video editor, but it's obviously not the best choice for a general user in face of its costly price and complicated operations. Sometimes, you just need to do a simple editing, such as split video, rotate video, merge video and so forth. So here comes this tutorial about how to split video with three simple methods.
If you don't want to install any software on your PC, Online-Video-Cutter.com, an acclaimed free online video cutter must be your ideal choice. It's simple, convenient and free for anyone to split video online as well as crop, rotate, trim, merge video in MP4, AVI, FLV, MPG, 3GP.

3. Move the slider along the progress bar to the starting point you want to split, then click the red "Record" button.
4. Press Play button for playback and click "Record" button again when it reach the end point. Attention, DO NOT move the slider to the end point since VLC records in real time so you must wait for the video to play.

As a powerful and top rated media player, VLC media player also owns the ability to cut video clip with advanced recording feature. You can regard it as an MP4 splitter or AVI splitter.

So, it will take you more time to get the job done if you have a long video to split.
