Tech: Video editing software. What do you use?

I am growing upset with Adobe. Looked at Windows Essentials but I don't like the "agreement" re content ownership and future changes allowed under the agreement. Any free stuff that works well?

Cinelerra, but it only runs under Linux
Like most complex Linux stuff, a bit a a pain to set up, but does the job.

Cheers

Hi kabouter, which version of Linux do you have? I'm using Mint 17.1 and it doesn't support Cinelerra. Instead it has kdenlive. I've not really tried it yet but it seems to have a simple install, a nice GUI and has good reviews. I don't know if it's available for Window$ or Mac.

Just started using Photoshop CC for video.

Nero 2014 - a little fiddly, but I guess they all are.

Stanron. I don't use Mint but it looks as if you may need to add another repository. eg. see here.

If all else fails, I guess you could download the source and build yourself.

I'm on OpenSuse and on the rare occasions I want to edit video, usually use kdenlive although cinellara is probably installed too...

Hi Jon

Thanks for that. It all went well up to the

'sudo apt-get install cinelerra'

command. I got the message

'Package 'cinelerra' has no installation candidate'

and the command terminated. I did get Kino though and I'll experiment with that. I also found that kdenlive is available for Mac as well as Linux.

You could try:

sudo apt-get install cinelerra-cv
