I do a lot of media work and kept notes on packages tested. Note that (subsequent versions may have been improved since I last checked.
Linux Likes: kdenlive: most capable one I've used so far, many FX openshot: also good, multiple tracks, creative transitions and FX, very intuitive pitivi: easy, basic, no transitions but works. kino: _very_ basic, Ok for capturing Linux Dislikes: avidemux: (GTK+ and QT versions) no timelines, storylines or help :( lives: crash-a-lot open movie editor: crude, crash-a-lot Cinelerra: might have some usefull fx but the interface is kludgy and lots of err messages. Windows likes: Adobe Premiere. A bit of a learning curve if you're new to editing video, but by far the most capable and creative editor I've ever used. I did most of my project, commercial and VJ clips work with this one. Great for being artsy, lots of 3rd party plugins, filters & FX. Final Cut: Also very capable editor Windows dislikes: AVID: Dedicated hardware machine or software: I know it's very popular in the pro world but it's not terribly intuitive or cooperative. Very expensive and moody. We had this in the labs at film skool, I used premiere at home and still aced it. :) They did a kdenlive demo at the last PLUG meeting, I should have dragged my a$$ over there ... --- On Sun, 7/15/12, mike enriquez <[email protected]> wrote: From: mike enriquez <[email protected]> Subject: Video Editing software ideas?

I am looking for software that is easy to learn and not that expensive. Linux or windows is ok.
