Quicktime Pro no longer supported

Just upgraded to MacOS Catlina 10.15.6

Quicktime 7 Pro is no longer supported. Now what?

We use QT7pro to make fast simple edits, trim footage and loop mov files back and forth. Catalina no-longer supports QT7 Pro. Is there a way to add the functionality of 7pro to Quicktime Player 10.15.

We use Adobe Premier and After Effects for big projects but when all we need to do is a quick trim

or set a .mov file to loop back and forth Quicktime 10.15 just can't do it and opening a project in Adobe

then editing and rendering is a lot more time consuming.

Is there another option Im missing for fast trims and lopping back and forth?

I, too, miss the old QT Player 7 Pro. It works in Catalina virtualized in some old OS X (El Capitan or Snow Leopard Server are my favorites). In VMware Fusion it can edit files on shared folders like the Catalina Desktop.

But IMO the new QT Player is not so bad either in trimming big movies files.

I did not realize the new QT player could trim files, so thanks for that info. The trim function and interface is very nice. I guess my only real need then is a way to easily loop the videos back and forth. We create very short videos typically 2-3 seconds and need to loop them back and forth. Any suggestions how to pull that off with the new QT player?

QuickTime Player 7 is a 32 bit app and none of them will work on Catalina.

IINA is a nice player that has loop and custom AB and playlist loop but the current version does not seem to have back and forth loop.
