I've been asked by various members what tools I use to edit and enhance my videos posted on the thread "Details hiding in the shadows". If you're interested in doing your own editing, then use the following tools. They are all free to download and use.

First you need a quality video source, 1080p or 4K Blu-ray, is the best, 720p is acceptable. Anything less, the resolution loses details especially in dark scenes.

Video sources

For best quality video clip sources use:

Zorg, a frequent contributor on this board: https://www.zorg.video/
Johnny Moronic, posts frequently with many International TV and Movies captures: http://www.johnny-moronic.com/
PlanetSuzy The Celebrity Video || Explicit Movie Sex Scene, Sex Tape thread: http://www.planetsuzy.org/showthread.php?p=28079157
Vintage videos prior to 1997 http://vintage-erotica-forum.com/index.php

Avoid videos from Ancensored, Mr.Skin, TnAFlix, VK.com and other popular aggregator sites as they are overly compressed with low bit rates so videos look soft and lack details in dark scenes.

Please feel free to post below other quality video sources you know of.

Downloading

Use jdownloader, a free, open-source download management tool to make downloading easy and fast from many File Hosting sites such as Rapidgator, Keep2Share, 1Fichier, etc.

On sites that stream videos use Video Download Helper, a free extension and the Companion app to capture almost any video stream

Editing video

To edit the video use the free video processing software, AviDemux.

Very simple to use

1. Open your video
2. On the video timescale slider edit out the parts of the video not needed. Use arrow keys to jump to the start of a section to edit out, press [Ctrl-PgUp] to mark start point, move slider to end of the section, press [Ctrl-PgDn] to mark end point. Click on the red (X) button to delete section. Continue with the rest of video deleting parts not needed.
3. Once satisfied with video clip to enhance, choose your video output.
For widest playability across many devices use Mpeg4 AVC (x.264) as the codec, for smaller file size choose HEVC (x265), and your output format (mp4 for widest playability)
3. Click on Filters button to enhance your video:
Use Colors (MPlayer eq2 filter) to adjust Gamma along with Saturation to bring out details in dark scenes. Use RGB sliders to adjust colors
Use Colors (Color Balance filter) Midtone slider to further brighten details in dark parts
Use Sharpness to sharpen details
Use Noise to smooth out video noise
Use Transform to crop, resize, or change FPS (slow motion)
4. Save output video

Upload your creation to share with others on MediaFire, MEGA, or any other popular sharing sites.
