I've There aren't really things as "standard tools" for Linux. Cinelerra is a tool for non-linear video editing, quite like Ardour, but for video instead of audio. > never used it, but I'd imagine that editing in separately recorded audio > soundtrack material must be among its capabilities. >From what i gathered, the original poster needed to create soundscape for a finished, already cut video piece. You don't need fully-fledged video editing software for creating the audio for this. xjadeo + ardour has been used by at least a few people with good results. xjadeo seems perfect except for one problem, it seems to be really picky about what type of video files it plays, so you might need to transcode the video file to the correct format before being able to play it with xjadeo. The basic idea behind xjadeo is simple. It syncs to jack transport, so it will stay in sync with ardour. Or any other jack transport enabled software, like muse. http://sourceforge.net/projects/xjadeo/ -- Sampo Savolainen <v2@xxxxxx>
