do you know is a good video editor?

[mid boss]

i want a video editor that i can choose from where to where i cut not the piece of junk video editors that i only choose from where it starts and where it ends , in other words i want something easy to cut a video with it

the reason is that i have some anime in english with low quality and in Japanese with good quality and i want to convert them into one file (yeah i am an english dub watcher)

and i appreciate if someone gave me an advice for it because i am new at converting

Why not just use MKVmerge and mux the audio to the video? It might be a bit of a pain to line up the audio and subs, but it is worth it since its easy and doesn't require much learning to do.

i know about MKVmerge and my first mixing was by using it. the thing is that  the timing between the 2 video doesn't match so i want an easy video cutter or a video editor that support MKV so that i can cut the videos and make them match each other. thanks anyway

Most people doing this are probably using AviSynth. It's not easy to learn, but with a gui like AvsPmod the learning curve would at least be smaller. MeGUI is another option to try, and it will make piping the video to the encoder easier. 

 

If you're just wanting an easy gui based editor, like sony vegas, you could try Lightworks. I haven't tried it yet myself, so I don't know how good it is. I've been keeping an eye on them because they're working on a linux version.

You need something to extract the audio from the .mkv file like MKVcleaver, then you have to sync that audio to new video. To do that you can use Audacity, it's easy to learn.

You could try Hand Break. I've heard from a few encoders that it works  very well with mkv's, and mp4's.

Sony Vegas pro 10 is awesome i use it for everything, trailers, gmod videos and more. it aint free or support mkv so you haft to convert it however....

Here is my suggestion:

 

1. First, use MKVmerge to take the good video and mux it together with the good audio.
   
2. Open the new file in VLC player, use the hotkeys 'j' and 'k' to adjust the audio offset. Figure out what the proper delay is and sync the audio with the video. Make note of how many milliseconds.
   
3. Open MKVmerge again. Open the video file you muxed in step 1. Select the audio track. Go to the 'Format Specific Options' tab.
   
4. Add the delay in milliseconds here, then mux the file together. Note: you can use a negative value if you need to move the audio forward instead of back.
