Any Good video editors?

Is there Any Good video editors???

I want to add a video within another video.

Anyone know of a good video editing package in linux?

This will be a really interesting question for me

also. I suggest that "really good" video editors

really don't exist on Linux at this time. Unfortunately.

 

"Really Good" to me would suggest that you are looking

to produce something professional or nearly professional.

Way out of the home movie arena. Two editors come to mind.

 

Adobe Premiere Pro is an excellent video editor and very

popular. If you are looking to produce something "Really

Good" in the under 10 minute range then Pro is the only

way to go. Many of the commercials that you see on local

television are produced using Premiere Pro.

I have used Premiere for about 5 years now and find

that there is only one other product that is better.

 

And that is.......

 

Avid Xpress

 

http://www.avid.com

 

This is the platform of choice for professionals both

Hollywood and TV. It's the most common platform taught

in schools. This is a _VERY_ (did I underline very)

powerful video editor and creation tool. If you

go to a movie, watch a TV program or view a DVD

you are probably looking at a presentation created

in Avid.

 

Both of these platforms suffer from the fact that

they are Microsoft XP specific. Even using the latest

updated version of Pro on the latest updated Windows XP

you still get the occasional freeze and crash. Avid

offers a custom entry level system for about $6000

that I am sure is better. That system uses Windows XP.

 

"Really Good" can translate into $53,245++ including

software and hardware in this application in this

tool.

Okay then does anyone know of any video editors that would allow me to put video in video.
