This reminds me. A few days, my ancient home computer died, so I was forced
to (finally) buy a new computer. My new computer will have tons of disk
space [1], tons of memory, a firewire card and a DVD writer, so I hope to
do some video editing of my home videos.
Obviously, my new computer will run Linux exclusively, and I was hoping to
find a nice free video-editing software. Does such a thing exist? A short
Google search yielded "Kino" and a few other projects, which seemed (just
from reading about it) good enough for my relatively-simple needs (I'm not
planning to edit Hollywood movies...).
Now, I understand from your mail that the existing free video editing software
are not good enough. Can you please give a few details? What features that
this MainActor (of which I never heard, I have to admit) has are missing from
the existing free software video editors?
[1] On the first computer I ever used, the Commodore 64, a diskette held
around 160 KB (if I remember correctly). My new hard disk will contain
320 GB, the equivalent of 2 million (!!) such diskettes.
