Tip: Cinelerra, rough and ready video editor |

Sunday, 17 July 2005 |
The average computer user is now in quite good shape to develop and
publish content. Video is a fun and challenging way to bring ideas to
life and expand your skills. Needed hardware is becoming less
expensive, and software to make and edit video is becoming more
practical and accessible. Linux is no stranger to video, and
fortunately for us little folk, its quite easy to get a hold of great
Free Software tools. Enter Cinelerra, the "50,000 watt flamethrower" of Linux video.
Cinelerra is a freely available media editing suite for Linux licensed
under the GPL. Cinelerra is available in two flavors: the original
developer's work and an unofficial 3rd-party CVS version. Both versions
share much in common, so for simplicity I will let Cinelerra refer to
either version. Among its many features are the ability to work with
multiple audio and video tracks, the effective use of multithreading,
and the ability to perform many useful editing and exporting operations
simultaneously. These features combined with such freedom are simply
unheard of.
