Not used it much but it looks fairly reasonable, maybe not too advanced but it worked with the videos from my HD video camera which was handy (okay I had to install some GStreamer codecs but once they were installed it seemed to work OK). Rob </blockquote><div> </div></div>I hope to do some basic video editing later this month and was going to try using <a href="http://www.openshotvideo.com/">OpenShot</a>. More advanced options include <a href="http://blender.org">Blender</a> or the soon to be open sourced <a href="http://www.editshare.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=164&Itemid=146">Lightworks</a> which are aimed at video editing professionals.
