looks pretty easy with ffmpeg too if you're feeling all command line and

This is that dude's easiest method, if key frames work for you:

Key Frame Seeking

The fastest way to extract a portion of video from a larger video (with a
60 second clip starting 30 seconds in) would be the following:

ffmpeg -ss 30 -i input_vid.mp4 -t 60 -c copy output_clip.mp4

Thank you, Nat. I'll read more about ffmpeg. What this one video needs is
having the first part removed. I could find the time when the actual body
starts and sue that for the -ss variable, but the -t variable would be the
end of the video. Reading about these variables will tell me how to specify
the command.

Yes, I prefer the CLI for most work.

Stay well,

Rich
