Wondering what video editor should I learn to use? It does not need to have fancy effects, just cutting clips and muting and adding audio…
Currently I use Pitivi however its renderer is not the fastest, has no mute button for individual clips (afaik) and UI is not perfect. It does its job if there is no better options.
But I am wondering how other Linux video editors look like today in 2021? What I value in good editor is ease of use, fast import speed, rendering speed and low amount of dependencies…
Also it has to be free software and on Debian repository (testing)
ffmpeg is able to do that quite easily and better than most editors out there. It can manipulate streams separately, cut, crop, scale, concatenate, mix etc. if you don’t need anything fancy its the tool you are looking for.
Hmm, perhaps bash script using ffmpeg would be able to after specifying timestamps then automatically create video I am wishing to make anyways with editor. I have look into it ! Thanks
That’s how I’ve been doing things for a while.
It’s probably not enabled in the version of ffmpeg you are using, or you didn’t specify the right encoder/decoder.
Right, now it works thank you :)
