I chose Avidemux but I probably use ffmpeg cli more.

Picked LiVes, only used it a little but it seems to do what I need and it has a nice interface!

Looking forward to using it more and seeing all it can do!

Kino? Or doesn't that fall in cat. I still use kino on an almost daily basis to edit video's

I like DVDStyler for video authoring.

Handbrake - for easy file format re-conversion.

Doesn't appear Kino has been maintained in almost a decade.

Kino is the one I have used most over the years, but since it isn't being worked on I am always looking for a newer, still developed app, which is where I found LiVES.

BUT, if I had my druthers, it sure would be nice if someone would pick up Kino and bring it back to LiFE!

handbrake may fit the bill, with others i had only issues.
also issues with handbrake

no vote as handbrake is missing

Shotcut should be there. Easy, but powerful.

Shotcut - simple to use and reliable.

I've been a Blender user for many years but never thought of it as a Video Authoring tool. Well, this poll changed my mind and using Blender for video authoring got my attention. To use Blender is certainly not easy for beginners but why not give it a try. Why not use it with PiTiVi; the latter for simpler projects and Blender when I need more freedom and power for experiments.
