Answer 1

Blender is a free and open-source 3D editing and includes a fully featured video editor.

Note: Blender doesn't have the best learning curve, and might be a little difficult to use in the beginning, but it has a lot of tutorials and if you are stuck at something small, it is pretty easy to find tutorials for your problem.

To use Blender as a video editor, install and open Blender, press the plus sign at the top, and select "Video editing workspace":

And then drag and drop your video onto the video timeline

Some of the things you asked for:

• Video trimmer, splitting: Cut strips
• Video reverse: Play strip backward
• Video join: Add 2 strips to the same timeline
• Video and audio mixer: Add audio strips by dragging audio files onto the timeline, and play them at the same time as your video strips
• Animated GIF: I would recommend exporting as a video and use an online mp4 to GIF converter
• Frame grabber: Using blender freeze frames or VLC snapshot
• Video toolbox, Video Rotate, video effects: All the listed functions are available. See here for a list

With video transcoding and converting (to mp3), I would recommend using VLC, as this is much simpler. See here

Slideshow maker: Making a slideshow would be a little tedious in Blender. If you want to drag and drop images and generate a whole slideshow, you would be better off using something else, like Adobe Spark (I haven't tried this).

Answer 2

DaVinci Resolve is a free fully fledged video editor that does most of the things on your list apart from transcoding and GIFs. Additionally, using it as a slideshow maker would be tedious and not worth it. But every other dot point is well met.

It can be more demanding on your system then simplistic editors like "Movie Maker" and won't be usable on low-end machines. Ensure your system has a dedicated graphics card before even attempting to use it.
