Title: Video Editing software extension for TCL
Post by: Pats on February 22, 2013, 08:25:35 PM

I require some decent Video Editing software with small foot-print for editing education Demos for kids. Is it in repo ? Which one ?

Hi Pats
I see  avidemux.tcz  listed. You can see a screenshot here:

I installed avidemux from the repos, but it does not work.

What I mean by that is, I just have an icon at the bar below and on clicking it, nothing opens up.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

And if I want to install any software which is not in the repos, how do I go about? I am specifically looking for installing KDENLIVE.

Regards,
gocool

Hi gocool
What happens if you enter  avidemux2_gtk  in a terminal?

Yes...I am able to invoke it via terminal.

So how do I go about fixing the icon? Is there a config file I can open and fix it?

Thanks again Rich.

Hi gocool
Post the result of:

Code: [Select]

cat /usr/local/share/applications/avidemux.desktopAlso, if you click on the desktop, go to Applications->avidmux and click on that, does it start?

If you have installed the TCZ version (via Apps=avidemux.tcz) perhaps you might have better luck if you install the SCM version instead (via SCMApps=avidemux.scm).  Both are version 2.5.6.

I am not an avidemux user but a superficial test of the SCM version shows it starts up OK from the icon.


Edit: typos.

I just downloaded avidemux.tcz and it works fine here either by the terminal, menu, or icon.

Feeling stupid ...sorry for the pandemonium.

Thank you everyone for reaching out to help me.

Hi Rich, SamK , Jason. Thanks for helping.
Rich your given link is very nice with detailed discusion on which VESoftware is much better.
But Avidemux is just sufficient for my needs.

Jason, you are the master of TCL, so most of the software works fine on your box. Lucky man.
But so many of your scripts here made my life much easier dealing with TCL.

Thanks again for quick response from all.
By the way, I am only using TCL  - v3.5 currently - it suits me fine. I have fogotton how to use Win$ for months to gether.
