Video editor for Linux?

If it works on your setup, DaVinci resolve. If not, Kdenlive. Those are the only really professional video editing programs available at the moment.

+1 for kdenlive

I (very occasionally) use Kdenlive. I think it's pretty good.

You could try https://kdenlive.org/ and https://www.openshot.org/

I haven't done much editing, but they are fairly popular and decent tools. They also come as an AppImage, which means they pretty much 'just work.'

And https://handbrake.fr/ gets a mention for transcoding.

You ever try KDENLive? It's pretty good imo

You've probably got your answer already, but just wanting to confirm that Kdenlive can do all the things you listed.

Though the editor itself is very easy to use and obvious (if you previously have used premiere etc), you might find the UI for some of the individual effects a bit confusing. There's tool tips and sometimes help videos and stuff, but you might find yourself dragging a few sliders left and right to find out what they actually do :)

Note that generally speaking, Kdenlive doesn't currently support graphics-card-accelerated timeline preview very well, so if you're packing on the effects, you might not get real-time playback in the timeline without "preview rendering". If you ever used Premiere 20 years ago, it works the same as that.

From memory, Olive has the best "in-timeline" graphics card acceleration - but is otherwise at a much earlier stage of development.

As others have mentioned, some or all of these are also doable in Shotcut, Openshot, Olive.

Also, you might be interested in TJFree Tutorials on YouTube, which has a playlist of Kdenlive tutorials - for older versions, but it's mostly going to be the same. He also has tutorials in loads of other FOSS creative software. I found he tended to be "clear and efficient" and doesn't take 5 minutes to give you 1 minute's information.

I was both surprised and impressed with Kdenlive.

I just use KDEnlive.

The only one I know of is kdenlive, not sure of it can do all of that but it has always been enough for everything I needed for video editing.

Kdenlive is preety good now

Something I haven't seen mentioned is Blender's built in video editor.

I've used Kdenlive for my personal projects and in a professional setting. It's easier to install than Divinci Resolve and almost as powerful.

Kdenlive

Openshot

Nobody mentioned Olive yet, that one is very good, though I'm always concerned about the continuation of its development.

Kdenlive is great, I've been editing a lot of my videos on there and some shorts on YouTube. It's got a pretty unappealing UI but one you get to know and figure out where everything is you can get some content out :)

Kdenlive or Shotcut, or if you want something more powerful but not open source, Davinci resolve.

I've found Shotcut to be more stable than Kdenlive. Tho I haven't tried the latest kdenlive yet. Both have glaxnimate support so motion graphics is possible with both.

Am I the only one who kind of likes the video editing profile Blender has?

I used shotcut a lot and it's fantastic.

Kdenlive's pretty good.

+1 kdenlive. However, I can see why it's no sufficient solution for everyone

Openshot for me. It's very lightweight and hassle-free.

cinelerra

For sure try out olive You can't do automatic stabilization but manual works fine, However I will always use gyroflow whenever possible anyways. If needed you can easily script motion tracking data from 3rd party sources.

but it is properly color managed throughout the entire editor so doing color correction works properly and accurately. the node system is really powerful despite it's early nature, and as far as I know olive is the only FOSS editor with proper OCIO integration, which means you get industry standard color management tooling including things like ACES support. You also have OTIO support for importing and exporting editorial cutting information.

Kdenlive is what I used a while back when I was editing a video. You also can do it with ffmpeg from the command line if your a real chad

If you're familiar with blender, it works pretty well but renders slow

Pitivi is really nice

If you want a very simple editor, try avidemux.

Pitivi I use. Like feature lacking Adobe Premiere it is.

For whatever reason, many of the editors mentioned here never worked for me ... like OpenShot, ShotCut or PiTiVi were really unstable the last time I tried (might be a distro or DE thing). Also I found it hard to cut precisely when they worked. Lightworks, Da Vinci, Cinelerra, I had a hard time getting them to run. Maybe that changed in the meantime.

I ultimately stuck with Kdenlive, which is stable enough and allows for reasonably precise cutting.

I know Blender can do at least some of this on windows. I assume the same is true on linux?
