Awesome video editor for GNU/Linux! :D - machine! - 07-05-2012

Look what I found google'ing! Smile

Now I don't have to use Kdenlive anymore! (i don't like to have QT on my box, kdenlive itself is quite good Tongue )

What do you have against Qt? It's an awesome framework IMO, loads of features and it's light & fast at the same time.

(note: Qt is not the same as KDElibs)

PiTiVi?

PiTiVi is nice but tends to crash a lot...

It's yet another huge (92 megabytes) graphic toolkit dependency that I only use for a couple of apps. That's why I'm not too fond of Qt.

RE: Awesome video editor for GNU/Linux! :D - machine! - 07-06-2012

@Cyber Killer
Exact same reason as Mr.Bougo told. I got nothing against QT I just prefer to have only 1 toolkit on my box, which in my case is GTK2. Smile

And yet Xonotic takes up well over a gigabyte decompressed. It's probably even larger when not compiled.

Also, AFAIK GTK has no GUI tools for creating GUIs and is considerably harder for programmers to work with, because they need to visualise everything in their heads.

Hypocrisy everywhere. Tongue

I know, it's a game, games are pretty large. In my opinion toolkits should be small and useful, not large and slow.

I'd rather not install another 96 megabytes of GUI libs. Where's the hypocrisy about that? I didn't say I refuse to install Qt (I have it installed already), it's just that it seems very redundant (unlike Xonotic, which is not redundant with anything and is completely irrelevant to this topic). No need to get angry!

Also, if Qt is better than GTK as you say and if it could shrink a little in size, I would have no problem with everything GTK moving to it. I'm not a GTK fanboy.

I hope this isn't what FrontPage is to webpages. How much clutter code does it generate?

It's quite nice, it generates a XML file and that's pretty much it! Smile

It's quite nice program actually! Tongue

RE: Awesome video editor for GNU/Linux! :D - Cyber Killer - 07-07-2012

@Mr. Bougo - GTK can't be compared with Qt. It's a different kind of library, GTK is like wxwidgets - gui only. Qt on the other hand is a complete application framework, which has gui widgets in addition to a load of other stuff. Qt is the same category as e.g. .NET (here's a general list of all the stuff that's in Qt - when you take that into account, the 100MB disk space it takes is really little).

i am on the other side of this where most apps I use are qt ... only the few important ones like gimp -- inkscape -- chrome -- filezilla -- vlc are gtk ... otherwise I would prefer to use a qt based system ...

anyways ... nice find ... I love new software finds

RE: Awesome video editor for GNU/Linux! :D - Cyber Killer - 07-08-2012

Actually VLC is written in Qt ;-).

It's not that bad. Except, if you're using anything other than C, you'd subclass your windows, and Glade has little support for that. Fortunately, you can add containers without toplevel, so there's that.

RE: Awesome video editor for GNU/Linux! :D - Mr. Bougo - 07-08-2012

@Cyber Killer: oh okay. Still doesn't change that I'm not too fond of dependencies shared by a couple of programs Tongue But I see your point. Fair enough.
