Cinelerra question

[Erich Newell]

No I'm sorry to say the only tutorial I have for transcode is the man
page...but there are several front-ends that make the job easier. A
quick "apt-cache search transcode" reveals half a dozen or so under
Ubuntu. I'm certain there are just as many for your distro of choice.

On another note, I was reading the October issue of LJ (yes, I'm
behind) which has an article on KDENLIVE...which is an another
Non-Linear Editor for video. You might want to check it out (no
personal experience).
