Video Editor Kdenlive 0.9.6 Released
jrepin writes "Version 0.9.6 of free and open source video editor Kdenlive has been announced. This version adds a Reverse clip option to Clip Jobs that creates a backwards clip.The list of audio/video bitrates can now be customized in custom rendering profiles. New release also fixes several bugs and crashes, including a very annoying bug that caused project files to seem corrupted."
Actually, this is what kdenlive does: it is a GUI frontend for the CLI MltMelt tool (http://www.mltframework.org/bin/view/MLT/MltMelt). Given, it is one command which does everything instead of multiple small commands, but there is still a separation between the program doing the work and the program providing the GUI.
You should try, because serious pro level stuff is not possible on linux yet. and I would gladly pay $500 for a linux video editor on par with even Sony Vegas 9. (They are currently at version 12)
I would love to edit under linux, but I cant because I need to edit fast and have a stable editing suite. And that is ignoring that there is nothing like After effects or Motion for linux that exists.
Do not look at laser with remaining good eye.

Running an alien OS is a lot of bother.
"Religious Purity" really has nothing to do with it.
It's the same bother for a Linux user to dinker with Windows as it is for a Windows user to dinker with Linux. At least the copy of Linux is going to be free.
A Pirate and a Puritan look the same on a balance sheet.
