Hey Jono,

I think someone mentioned it before but at the time it looked really bad
and its a lot bigger than pitivi if I remember correctly since pitivi
only needs a few libs on top of what we already have so on the disk its
tiny. I suppose we could switch to openshot but since space is starting
to dry up fast and we are trying to keep things small so we can fit Qt
on the disk I dont know.
