Video trimming fundamentally involves selecting a start and end timestamp within a video file and then creating a new video that only contains the frames between those two points. For client-side tools, this process often leverages web APIs such as the HTML5 `video` element and Canvas for frame manipulation, or more advanced libraries that can re-encode segments of the video. The goal is to perform this operation without re-encoding the entire video, which preserves quality and speeds up processing, only re-encoding the cut points if necessary.
