Hi,

See:  http://www.bowenvale.pointclark.net/VideoLayout.gif

I want to edit 4 videos in to one.

What easy to use tool do people recommend?

Cheers Don

I can't think of anything other than this:

Extract every frame out of each of the four videos. (mplayer -vo png or mplayer -vo jpeg)

Construct each frame of the new video with either montage or similar from imagemagick OR scripting the gimp. Have them numbered consecutively like framexxxx.png.

Make the constructed frames into a video. (ffmpeg -i frame%04d.png outputfile.mpg)

You may want to do something about audio too, thats left to you.


Actually cinelerra may be able to do it via some sort of compositing tricks with masks etc, but thats also an exercise for you.
