Shotcut

It is a cross-platform open source software. See The best free video editing software: Great tools for YouTube stardom and more

I tested inserting a text in a video. Compared to Youtube video editor

  • The text is really a text. No pop-up shape to select
  • Not sure how to control the text so it only appears at a certain time interval

Not as intuitive to use.

Pitivi

Blender

Looks very professional too. Windows/Linux/OSX (binary files are provided). Worth to try.

Kdenlive

More complicated than OpenShot. Worth to try. Ubuntu 16.04.1 is needed.

  • Annotation and Title (Video Manager -> Videos -> Edit -> End screens and annotations -> Annotations -> Add annotations (Speech bubble, Note, Title, Spotlight, Label). However, the annotations do not show up on mobile. See this post for a discussion.
  • Add photos

Bad

  • Music cannot have fade in/out

OpenShot-qt

sudo apt-get install openshot

When I needed to export the video (choose 'youtube' profile, 'youtube-HD' target, 'HD 270, 29 .97 bps', and 'high' quality), I found I need to install libx264 code. On Ubuntu, I open software center and seach 'libavformat'. I choose 'libavformat-extra-53'.

An introduction to video editing in Openshot 2.0 from howtoforge.

Don't use the version (1.4.3 date 2009) because it crashed too often.

The new version 2.0.7 (date 2016) looks a little different (theme is black. Cool!). Its icon and command (openshot-qt) are different too. The project saved from 1.4.3 cannot be opened in 2.0.7. The tools icons are different: Add track, Snapping tool, Add Marker, Previous Marker, Next Marker, Zoom in/out.

This version of OpenShot + (old) Core2Duo Ubuntu = Dynamic Heatmap Viewer video.

Audio library

You can download free music from Youtube Audio Library. If you use a copy righted music and upload your video to youtube, the video will show Ad eventually.

Take a snapshot

The keyboard shortcut Ctrl+d does not work.

One suggestion is to use VLC. VLC -> Video -> Take Snapshot. The snapshot will be automatically created in ~/Pictures/ directory (*.png format).

Procedure

  1. Put audio and video files in one folder
  2. Use openshot to create a new video. Also
    • Use the +/- sign for zoom in and zoom out
    • Right click video file and select Volume -> Entire clip -> level 0%
    • Right click audio and select Volume -> End of clip -> fade out (slow)
  3. openshot -> Save (arrow/download-like button)
  4. openshot -> Export (red circle button)
    • Modify the file name so it won't overwrite the original (openshot won't check it)
    • Select Profile = Web, Target=Youtube-HD, Video Profile=HD 1080p 25 fps, Quality=High.
  5. Check the exported video (play it first by VLC).
    • On one instance the audio is fuzzy until the middle of the video. So I have to change the audio
    • On another instance the video length is longer than I expected because the final annotation slide lasts too long. A solution is to change the setting (Profile=All Formats, Target=MP4 (h.264), Video Profile=HD 1080p 24 or 23.98 fps). If I use 25 fps, the file will be wrong.
  6. Upload to Youtube. Use Youtube video editor to include annotation.

Codec information

How to find out which Codec a video file is using

Video rip/convert/transcoder

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:stebbins/handbrake-releases
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install handbrake-gtk

sudo apt-get install handbrake-cli

To merge audio and video 

# naive: use the one with longer duration as the total length
avconv -i music.m4a -i input.mp4 -acodec aac -strict experimental output.mp4
# improved: specify the start time (-ss) and duration (-t)
# unfortunately the music at the specified end time may not be the end
# so a better way is to use a video editor (eg OpenShot) and specify fade out on the end of the audio!
avconv -i music.m4a -i input.mp4 -acodec aac -strict experimental -ss 00:00:00 -t 00:01:01 -codec copy output.mp4

To extract audio only: 

avconv -i INPUT.flv -codec copy -vn OUTPUT.mp4
