Hisham, I am a video editor and whenever possible I use Linux for even my professional jobs. The tool I use is Blender (yes, Blender does video editing and does it quite well). I compile both ffmpeg and blender (2.49a) from source for maximum performance but both are also available via fedora and rpmfusion repositories. Tutorials on how to edit video and add fades and transitions can be found here: http://straightedgelinux.com/videoBlender This is a two-part tutorial, so be sure to do it all for best results. If Blender is a bit of an overkill, I would, like Martin, suggest PiTiVi. They are really doing great things for video editing on Linux but if you are, like me, used to FCP or Avid, you may find it a bit light-weight. Also consider Kdenlive for a very Avid/FCP -like interface. And last but not least, try LiVES for a particularly non-Avid/FCP interface. Oh, and I should not leave out Open Movie Editor which is quite effective. Hope that helps. -- klaatu On Monday 10 August 2009 05:56:43 Martin Sourada wrote: > On Mon, 2009-08-10 at 12:38 +0300, Hisham Abdel-Magid wrote: > > hello all > > > > i'm looking for an NLE Video Montage software that runs under Fedora > > (i.e. equivalent to Final Cut Pro or Adobe Premiere .. etc) ... any > > clue? > > > > P.s. i Googled alot and hit many walls :S > > > > ~hish > > I'm don't use this software, so I don't know if my reply will be > actually helpful, but you can try kino [1] (in rpmfusion), PiTiVi [2] > (in fedora) or cinelerra [3][4] (outdated version seems to be in atrpms, > also used to be in kwizart repo). > > Martin > > References: > [1] http://kinodv.org/ > [2] http://www.pitivi.org/wiki/Main_Page > [3] http://cinelerra.org/ > [4] http://heroinewarrior.com/cinelerra.php -- the bad apple linux ogg cast --> http://www.thebadapples.info fedora reloaded! ogg cast --> http://www.fedorareloaded.com hacker public radio ----------> http://www.hackerpublicradio.org the linux cranks ogg cast ---> http://www.linuxcranks.info _______________________________________________ design-team mailing list design-team@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
