Video Editing - jiyong - 08-23-2020

Here are my first steps with video editing with a PBP.
We really need access to hardware video codecs, but that is another story.

I installed OpenShot and started working on a 720p video.
I only added a simple image before as intro and a simple image after as outro.

The preview in OpenShot already suffered from performance issues and it is really hard to get the right timings when you want to cut a video clip.
In the end I used VidCutter to get the start and end for a clip and used the time markers in a command line with FFMPEG.
VidCutter seems to start cutting from a key frame by default and smart cutting gave a strange jump in my clip.

Here is an example of the command line and the source where I found it.

ffmpeg -ss 00:01: 00 -i input.mp4 -to 00:02:00 -c copy output.mp4

At the moment video editing on a PBP is a bit like torturing yourself.
I really hope we do get access to the hardware video codecs in the future.

Have you tried Kdenlive on the Pinebook Pro? I know it works pretty good on my Raspberry Pi.

No, as long as we don't have access to the hardware video codecs, I don't see the point to explore further.
Do you have hardware acceleration active on the Pi?

I believe so.
