RE: [PLUG] video editing?


since sending this i have discovered many options for video on linux. some
are totally free and open, some are not.  i will be experimenting in the
coming days/weeks, i'll post my discoveries if i make any.

i have BC2000, it came with suse 7.2 pro, but the site says they an't
distribute it anymore. hopefully, my machine will be able to handle it - and
i'm prepared to get more disks if necessary.

thanks

Wow, underwhelming response there?  How about Broadcast 2000, or it's
newer version Cinerrela(sp?, check sourceforge).  I've read some good
things, but haven't tried it myself yet.  Needs horsepower and lot's of
disk space from what I gather.  And it's not newbie friendly to build
from source.  BC2000 is on SuSE though, so you should be able to install
it as a package on recent distro's
