My wife is now my occasional autocross codriver. I'd like to be able to run the videos of our runs side by side to help us both improve our skills. Anyone have experience with this? Suggestions on what program to use (or just as importantly, what program to avoid) would be helpful.
I'm obtaining the videos with a Garmin Virb Ultra 30, then saving them on my PC and making the videos for upload to youtube in the Garmin Virb Edit program.
I know how to do that in Adobe Premiere (expensive), but that does not help you. If you want me to do that for you, I can, it's not that difficult (for me), but I suspect you want to be able to do it yourself.
My one concern would be that you would likely have to crop both videos to fit on one screen. I don't think YouTube supports any video proportion other then the standard letterbox style. E.g. you want to end up with each video in a very long flat format, stacked on top of each other. So, that is a feature you will need.
If not, you will end up with a video with a lot of black space on the top and bottom.
You can watch two youtube videos in sync with:

DaVinci Resolve Is an excellent free video editing software. People I know that use it compare it to the Adobe Premier. I have not used it my self but my sone does and he really likes it.
I use Power Director. Not free but not expensive (about $100 if I remember). Well worth it for what it can do.
I could do what you want in Power Director but as Air said it may be a on screen fitment issue.

I've done that with Wondershare Filmora a few times to get a split screen of two different cameras on the same rallyx run. It can do a PiP, horizontal, or vertical split. Also not a free option, but I seem to recall it wasn't tremendously spendy.
There used to be a site called Youtube Doubler where you could play two videos side by side, audio on one or both, sync at whatever point you wanted.
