From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Video editor for Linux? (lemmy.world)

I'm looking for a program that can cut video, adjust exposure levels, color correct, stabilize and encode.
I've never done anything like this before, so ease of use would be great. But if there's an established standard program (like Gimp for photos), I'll learn it. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Shotcut is great, especially because ffmpeg, GPU acceleration and very easy to learn workflows (although admittedly not so intuitive that you get them right away).

I don't know about Kdenlive, but I tried Openshot and found it to be much slower and lacking functionality, although it's even easier to use for the basics.

I actually want to give kdenlive another shot. But since I already figured out the keyframe mechanics in shotcut it was a too tall an order to relearn a new WY to do it in short order (clock was ticking for me to get a video done for a kid's b-day!)
