I have used Avidemux with success.

Hi NMGLUG folks,

I need to do some basic video editing.

Which software would you recommend?

Here are the types of tasks I want to do.

- Record a voice-over soundtrack to replace original sound from a video which I've recorded on my phone (or other) after I transfer the video to my laptop.

- Combine two separate videos side-by-side, like split screen (without sound).

- Maybe cut out a segment at the beginning or end or middle of video.

- Maybe eliminate some of the edges of the screen.

- Maybe splice two videos to add an intro or outro.

- Maybe superimpose text or other doodles.

Other details:

File format will probably be mp4, unless someone has a better suggestion.

I'll want to upload the videos to youtube. Can I do this editing in youtube? Is this advisable? Any suggestions for alternatives?

I already have a few video playback programs on my Debian laptop. It's possible that one of these will be the best option. I can easily download a different program, too. I will need to learn how to use whatever program is best.

Thanks for your help.

LeRoy
