¿ªÔÆÌåÓýQuicktime can do this for you.?Open the file. Go to >Edit>Trim. Use the yellow sliders on each end to drag and highlight the section you want. Hit the ¡°Trim¡± button in the lower right. This removes the section outside the brackets. This does NOT modify the original. This is a copy. You will see ¡°Untitled¡± on the title bar. ? To convert to a standardized format to send to others, select >File>Export as. Pick the resolution you want, probably 1080p. The codec should default to h264, which is what you want. Save the trimmed export. This is what you would send to someone else. When you close the clip in Quicktime, it will give you a Save dialog because you Exported but didn¡¯t Save. The original Trimmed clip is still in its original format. If you want a ¡°master¡± version of your trimmed file, then name and save the trimmed file. When you ¡°Save¡± the new file is trimmed but NOT converted from its original format. Very useful for trimming a master without converting. QTs export options are quite limited. You might want your 4k file to stay 4k! If you do not want to Save the master version of the Trim, then you can select ¡°Delete¡± in the Save dialog. Again, nothing you do in Trim mode will alter your original. Now the one issue you might run into is that QT exports with the .mov extension, but this is an h264 mpeg internally. If you have any problems with software rejecting the .mov extension, change the extension to .mp4 and software will see it as an mpeg file and open it.
