## Ralf Seidenschwang

Thanks Arman. Your series makes fun!

The only thing I have to do with video-editing is to find the right entry point and duration for small videos with I usually record with my mobile phone, for example short sport clips that I want to share with my friends. Sometimes I want to adjust the start (the first picture so to say and the preview picture) and the duration of the video.

Usually, I do not edit my videos, but for that purpose, I’m search a solution with a small footprint for cases I do not share directly from mobile to mobile.

Is there a favorite for that purpose available Arman?

## Franco

If we’re talking about software for Fedora, and not for mobile phones, I highly recommend Avidemux (avidemux-qt package in the rpmfusion-free repo). It has a very simple interface that lets you do exactly what you want. The best part is that if you’re simply adjusting the start and the duration of the video, you can export a new file without re-encoding, which means that the export process is super fast and there is no degradation in quality.

## Ralf Seidenschwang

That seems to be a fitting solution. Thank you very much. I will try this.

## John

Arman, you do a great job for deadly Linux users.

Thank you!

## AlexTheoto

Flowblade is very good video editor, with similar interface of Sony Vegas. It uses ffmpeg and it is available on flathub or rpmfusion-free

## Anon

Can you do one on PDF Editor and sponsorize Xournal++?

It allows to annotate PDF and will soon allow to select text from them too

## John Smith

I usually go for Kdenlive, which is very complete and regularly updated as well. I think Openshot should also have been mentioned, as it seems more recently updated than Pitivi, which last stable release was in September 2020. I don’t know much about Openshot or Pitivi, but when I look for software, I usually look when it was last updated. Not sure what to think of software which has not been updated for a while.

## Rich Alloway

I agree: OpenShot should have been included. It has its faults, but it has a combination of intuitiveness and power that I’ve found to be very unique and useful.

OpenShot gets used at least once a week to produce YouTube videos at my house!

If I can’t do something right in OpenShot, I can usually do it in at the command line with ffmpeg and import the result into OpenShot.

## AC2

Another vote for OpenShot.. Much better than Pitivi for sure!

Although with Fedora 34 Workstation now using ffmpeg v4.4, the audio output is borked…

## Huub

Another vote for OpenShot. Using it 3 times a week, no complaints. Even when it crashes (which rarely happens), it comes back with the last changes still applied.

## Franco

I believe Olive should have been more than a simple mention that it exists.

It is by far the most stable and fastest of the bunch.

It may not have all the features of Kdenlive, but it sure is MUCH more usable.

## MillironX

Agreed. As a long-time Adobe Premiere (Elements and Pro) user who transitioned to Linux, Olive was the only editor I tried that made the cut. The main reason it stood out was that it was the only editor that could handle native H.264 footage for real-time forward and reverse scrubbing on my Nvidia GTX 1060 Ti.

## Clive Wi

I tried several of the Linux Video editors, and found that Kdenlive was the best out of all of them, the most significant problem I had with all the others was not the features which their appeared to be plenty, it was I read the user manual and didn’t understand what I had to do to achieve the result that I wanted.

I would really recommend the creation of some videos because as they say “A picture is worth a 1000 words”

## Pedgerow

Thanks for writing this! I really wanted to learn video editing last year, because I wanted to make a music video for a song that’s very hard to find online. In the end, I used something called VSDC, but I didn’t really like it. I don’t know if it’s open-source. I will download one of the ones from this list and see if I like it more!

## Vincent B

Forgot Blender… Blender is also a very strong video editor, with a lot of functionalities , …

## NC

For some minor editing jobs, I’ve used Flowblade — it certainly has more capability than I’ve needed, so I’m not sure how it stacks up to, eg. Kdenlive, but it gets frequent updates and RPMs are available in rpmfusion.

mentioning davinci resolve would have been nice, but still a great article
