Video editing program recommendations? :)
I have used Pitivi to do simple editing. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0mmp7BEVc8 for a short tutorial.
Kdenlive.
Definitely... Intuitive and have great and powerful tools.
You can change his skin as well.
For advanced users, Blender. Can do great post-production.
Yes, this famous 3d software allows video editing !
You can do camera stabilisation or video tracking to put 3d elements. There are a lot of tutorials on You Tube.
In every way, you'll have to know how to encode (which kb/s, codec, size..) for asking the right resources to your computer for a better result.
I also recommand Kazam for a great video capture of your screen
I'm actually looking for a screen capturer as well. I couldn't get Kazam to record audio. Is Kazam able to record audio? And I mean audio from the output, not from the environment.
Avidemux and FFmpeg.
ffmpeg!
seconded (and thirdeeed)
Does FFmpeg have GUI?
Does FFmpeg have GUI?
Yes - WinFF.
Isn't WinFF audio only?
Isn't WinFF audio only?
As far as I know, no.
You can find some usage examples here:
More freely licensed video editors (such as Openshot) are discussed here:

I've had limited success with OpenShot. I got it to work quite well on a powerful Apple box, but I've never successfully completed a video with it on GNU-Linux. I struggled a lot with getting the sound to stay in sync.
EDIT: Apparently this is a common problem with multimedia production on GNU-Linux due to ongoing legacy issues with the sound architecture (ALSA, PulseAudio and their various deficiencies etc). Hopefully soon someone will announce a new middleware that does for sound what Wayland is doing for graphics.
I found this write-up from 2015 useful when looking into this:
https://opensource.com/life/15/1/current-state-linux-video-editing
TL;DR if you can be bothered learning the non-intuitive interface, Blender can be a very effective video editor.
Favourite quote was about AVIDemux:
"Are people using this for editing? I looked at this as I've seen so many other writeups mention this as a editor which it most definately isn't. I moved on."
Avidemux is perfect for simple tasks such as removing adverts from recorded TV shows without re-encoding. For more complex tasks, you will need to use another editor as well.
A non-linear video editor was what the author of that article had in mind when he was looking for "video editing software". Sounds like Avidemux is more like a clip editor, something you might use to chop the clips you want to use out of your raw footage before importing them into another program to sequence and render them. Hmm. When I get a more powerful PC than the old AA1, I'll have to give Avidemux another go.
KDEnlive for editing. FFMpeg for converting video to other formats. GUI for ffmpeg/avconv is WinFF, Audacity/Soundkonverter for audio.
> KDEnlive / Soundkonverter
I've got some heavy prejudice against KDE. Every time I've tried it as a DE, it's been a bloated, slow, and unintuitive compared to GNOME on the same hardware. Consequently, every time I see an app with a name that's clearly been contrived to have a K where it doesn't naturally fit, I presume it's a KDE app, and I lose interest. I just assume that installing KDE apps on a GNOME-based system will result in adding a whole lot of bloat to my system, slowing everything down, all for apps that won't look right or run well on a GNOME system.
Is this unjustified bigotry on my part? Do I need to get over it?
