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 -- I am the Love of God, no matter what.
