Free Video Editing Software

edited February 2010 in Help / Advice Forum
I am looking for a free video editing software that is similar to Windows Movie Maker. I won't be needing any features that Movie Maker doesn't offer, but need at least what Movie Maker has.

Why not just use Movie Maker? Well I was hoping there was something out there that will create a higher quality end product. After going through editing and stuff on Movie Maker, when it compiles the final product, even at the highest setting, the quality decreases, it's not a huge drop, but enough to make a difference.

The videos being edited will mainly come from my Sony HC-96 Handycam, in avi format.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

    If you have linux available, Open Shot is really good for simple stuff.

    Have you considered Virtualdub http://www.virtualdub.org/ ?, with the right plugins you can achieve many features.
