Ive always been partial to Shotcut for proper video editing, but I also use HandBrake for simple tanscoding jobs.

ShotCut is alright but it chokes and dies with a large video with complex cuts. I tried using it to edit trailers, a pre roll intro, and an intermission into a 1080p film for a movie night I host and it would hang indefinitely and crash frequently.

For short and simple projects it's fine, even kind of nice to use.

This issue was solved by recent updates and it is mostly related to how your audio displays at different resolutions. If you choose a zoom that fits your system, you can edit +1 hour 1080p files, with many cuts and filters, without a problem.
