I have heard good things about kdenlive. Don’t do what I do and do everything in blender

[-] mortrek@lemmy.ml 3 points 8 months ago

I mainly use kdenlive, but blender has some advanced filters and features that kdenlive doesn't yet, so I have to use both.

I have had good results with Kdenlive. If you're a professional, you might choose something else, but this is a question about noob-friendly video editing software

Kdenlive is likely your best bet. Even if u have issues here and there, in the long term you'll be happy you stuck with it. It has very active development and is shaping up to be the most used foss video editor.

Youtube is full of Kdenlive tutorials. Within 1 hour of learning you'll know the basics use of it. It is easy if you're willing to start with tutorials since it is different from other video editing softwares.

Do not use openshot. Really bad bugs that will make it impossible to export your project and make all your time working with it wasted. Use kdenlive instead

[-] eugenia@lemmy.ml 6 points 8 months ago

The most noob video editor in PiTiVi, but it's not as stable as kdenlive (which is much, much more complex, but also more powerful).

[-] TypicalHog@lemm.ee 6 points 8 months ago

Kdenlive is the best IMO and pretty easy as well I guess.

I used to use Cinelerra back in the day. It's a non-linear editor like Premiere. If I could figure it out with YouTube more than a decade ago, it shouldn't be too hard.

I started with OpenShot Video Editor for it's ease of use in being able to cut parts of a clip out. But it was very slow, and now I'd reccommend Kdenlive.

One more way I don’t have to leave Emacs!

[-] jcg@halubilo.social 2 points 8 months ago

Emacs really can do anything huh

[-] rosemash@social.raincloud.dev 3 points 8 months ago

I don't know, but I wouldn't recommend OpenShot because it just gets really laggy when adjusting the timeline, and it lacks certain workflow features that you'd just expect mature video editing software to have (like the ability to move or delete keyframes)

I found kdenlive terrible. DaVinci Resolve is much better, but it’s closed source and has some limitations in terms of hardware encoding support (nvidia only).

[-] freedumb@programming.dev 3 points 8 months ago

DaVinci is a great piece of software, but is VERY limited on Linux. The lack of mp4 support in the free version is enough to not recommend it for a newbie.

[-] graycube@kbin.social 1 points 8 months ago

Olive seems pretty good but it is really hard to get working.

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.
