A good video editing software

[jacob.david]

I am looking for a good video editing software. I need to cut the avi, mpg, wmv and raw format videos and join them together. Could someone suggest me some good application for it? I have tried Cinerella with Fedora and Suse and was never successful with that. As soon as I click on something it will hang. Has anyone tried Cinerella with Ubuntu?

I haven't done any video editing in a while, but there's a lot of solutions out there. Try kdnlive. I seem to recall liking that one.

If it is for cutting and joining then Avidemux might fulfill your needs. (not sure if it is with all your formats)

I use Blender VSE most of the time. Cinelerra is good as well. I run it easily. You have to look for cinelerra 4. Try one of these (http://linux.softpedia.com/progDownload/Cinelerra-Download-4701.html). Nothing to install. Just go in the cinelerra folder and click the cinelerra executable.

Cinelerra on my Ubuntu 8.10 worked quite well but was heavy on system demands (I have a gutless 2 year old laptop). It has basically professional features (Apart from good capturing from firewire features). It covers the file types you need...Give it a go.

Thanks all for the suggestions. I'll start with cinelerra and see how it goes.
