[lug] Simple video editing

[Louis Miller]

Dear Steve,

     I feel like I am being pulled in two different directions with trying to learn how to edit video. The Linux community seems to encourage me to never touch Windows XP, and only use Linux and open source software, yet I don't have the skills to edit video. I couldn't find any help menus with avidemux. I was trying to do transcoding. I don't enjoy using Nero. I looked for a book on it in the library that I patronize regularly. Maybe, there might be a magazine article in some magazine, on it, like PC computing.

    I think these Linux programs assume that you have spent serious time and frustration learning all the ins and outs of their Windows counterparts, and if you are just learning how to use a particular type of program for the first time, then you are stuck. I guess these programs are all straightforward for experts on digital video. Are you an expert or an amateur, like me?
