I don't know enough to know the implications of
"re-encoding" issues, but I've had good luck with
Avidemux for my limited needs. It's basically a graphic
editor fort video, providing basic functions like crop,
resize, rotate, color adjustment, borders, etc.

I spent most of a day at one point looking through
various options and Avidemux was by far the best.
However, I haven't tried anything like splicing or
minor snipping. The only cutting I've done has been
on the ends.
