VLC creators working on a cross-platform video editing app
Right now VLMC is still in the early stages. Like really, really early. But the source is available, and a Reddit user compiled it and grabbed the screenshot you can see above.
While there are already free video editing tools for Windows, Mac, and Linux (Windows Movie Maker, iMovie, and Cinelerra come to mind), the Windows solutions tend to be minimalistic while the Linux versions are often overly complicated. I'm hopeful that VLMC could provide a decent middle ground. Plus the fact that it's cross platform could make it easy for people to hop between different computers running different operating systems without feeling like they need to learn a new video editing system for each platform.

Meh, I just downvoted myself for that post. Where is the delete button when you need it.

Aren't these the same people that just dropped development on VLC for the Mac due to lack of developers?
Marshall WilliamsDec 24th 2009 5:10AM
Yes, they are. But they dropped Mac because no-one wanted to develop VLC for Mac. This is a whole new project. It's bound to spark interest

Dear VLC,
Please give me a reason to not feel the need to pirate Vegas anymore.
That is all

That was my first thought. Great, this will look like a Windows 95 app but input/output to everything. Please let me be wrong.
Looking forward to this despite my initial moan as I'm a huge VLC fan. It's made possible other great software too like Miro.

I'll just be glad if it can support basic video editing without fussing over codecs.
