thanks Andrei. I am actually starting to play with this exact software. glad i'm on the right track. What kind of stuff are you editing? are you putting it online? what format?

you can see our videos here: ryanishungry.com.
We just started offering an Ogg format...but it needs work.

i`m editing parts of a biger movie that i exported from 3d studio max. i`ve tried once using a linux 3d rendering program. it`s called blender. the interface is odd. ( try http://blender.org if you wanna try it ) . i don`t have anything posted online. sorry

thanks. we're building an open source project for videobloggers at showinabox.tv.
we're attempting to use all FOSS tools to create and post video.
Not easy.
Video support has a long way to go on linux.
but we're looking for answers:

this is great thanks. If you're a linux guy wanting to support video creators, maybe we can talk more. I'm part of of a 2800 member community.

It's 9:40pm here. goodnight.

cool. like i said, we are now hacking wordpress to make an open source videoblog platform: showinabox.pbwiki.com. you can see what we're working on. This is what a videoblog could look like using our install: ryanishungry.com

We are slowing looking at understanding the Ogg so we can make it look and play better. We've just started looking at linux video editors.

i can provide you phpWordPress v3.11 Enterprise nulled script if it helps understanding it.

did you download it ? it help you in any way ? please let me now cuz` i wanna delete my reply with the attached file.. :D
I use Cinelerra almost 100% of the video I do. I suggest using the CVS build. [ http://cvs.cinelerra.org/ ] It seem much more stable than the Heroine Warrior build. A lot of people have told me that KDenlive is awesome, but I have yet to get my hands on it.

I do some videos on my website arthursucks.com. All of them are done is Cinelerra unless said otherwise.

The technique that's worked the best for me is:

1. Capture with dvgrab
2. Clean up DV with AviDeMux (Crapy camera.)
3. Edit with Cinelerra, make graphics with Gimp for videos. Render to uncompressed MOV
4. Encode MOV with AviDeMux or FFMPEG.
5. Upload if needed. :)

Seems to work good for me. Good luck.

I can't believe I didn't see this topic. I film a podcast every week and edit it all under linux. I use Kino for capture and basic editing and Kdenlive for more advanced stuff. Kdenlive has a long way to go, but it's looking far more promising than most other video editing apps I've used.
