What does "simple multimedia editing tasks" mean exactly?

These are really simple tasks which are not bo= thersome for one-off use in GUI interface (eg. in openshot video editor). H= owever, since I was doing it more often, it was getting increasingly infuri= ating.
- Trim segments from start and end
Most common use-case since = I was screen recording using ffmpeg.

- Seek previous/next
= I'm used to arrow keys for forward/backward movement.

- Create segments
Press RET in viewer mode or RET/SPC in = track mode to create a segment.

- Bookmark
When= you have more than two segments, it's useful to bookmark segments for = easier recall of their purpose or sequence.

- Delete segment
- Re= move void
When you delete a segment, a void is created. You need to move= all subsequent segments to cover up the void. In my implementation, segmen= ts follow each other ignoring whitespaces. So no readjustment is required.<= br>
- Re-order segments
- Export to appropriate format
With= ffmpeg, I only need to choose appropriate file extension and it picks up s= ensible defaults. No information overload with a myriad of options.

= - Merge segments from multiple files
=C2=A0

I have been using melt https://mltframework.org/ (with wrapper smelt) t= o
edit videos using plain text.=C2=A0 Once I figure out how to do something (sometimes a challenge), editing is much more convenient than using
point and click interface.
Agreed.
