Am now working on an mencoder frontend, which so far is going really well, the program is supposed to be the ultimate video editing tool - it can cut and merge avi's, while showing preview, cutting at exactly the right frames, etc. etc.
it is ofcourse GPL
right now i need beta testers, the program still isnt close to done, got a ton of gui stuff to do, but the main core is finally done (took me forever to get 2 avi's to merge cleanly in linux... interested in how? ask me and i'll send you the program
. the gui is in qt and kdelibs.
this program is best for tv cappers, those who want to remove commercials and etc. from their raw avi caps, and directly encode to high quality xvid and etc.
all those interested, please email ods15@ods15.dyndns.org
requirements are mencoder, mplayer, obviously qt and kdelibs, and sox and netpbm.
