[gentoo-user] Basic video editor in portage?

[Grant]

I have some video clips I'd like to trim the beginning and end from.
Is there a simple tool that will do this?  I'm emerging lives but I
think it's overkill for this.

Hello Grant,

I think Kino is what you want. I have cinellera here, but thats a bit of
an overkill as well. A Gnome alternative is PiTiVi
(http://pitivi.sourceforge.net/).

You could use mencoder (part of mplayer):

mencoder -ss 1:10 -endpos 1:10:00 -oac copy ovc copy -of avi -o\
truncated.avi original.avi

Explanation:
-ss 1:10		skip the first 1 minute and 10 seconds
-endpos 1:10:00		finish at file position 1 hour and 10 minutes (so the
truncated video would be 1:08:50 long)
-oac copy		do not transcode the audio
-ovc copy		do not transcode the video
-of avi			write everything into an avi-container
-o truncated.avi        output file

Warning: This simple example doesn't handle additional streams like a
second audio or subtitles. Please refer to mencoder's man-page for
additional options, or ask here ;)

Hope this helps
