Hi everyone,

as I don’t need to do extensive video manipulation but simple cutting/compression of videos as well as extraction from every “nth” video frame to save as picture. I’ve been using avidemux and VirtualDub in the past for this purpose. However, both avidemux and VirtualDub are last updated in 2012/2023 and thus not up-to-date anymore. Thus, I am now looking for a linux-ready, FOSS, and up-to-date solution to do the same. Shotcut, Kdenlive and OpenShot are much too extensive in features for the simple things that I am looking for it to do. Does anyone here have good recommenations?

Thanks for your help! Temperche

    Just because something was last updated last year doesn’t mean they aren’t up-to-date. Not all software need constant updating. It’s an illusion that software must be updated constantly. If it’s feature complete and there are no known issues with it why bother.

    Kdenlive is software I’ve seen recommended for video editing.
