       Ask HN: How do you record and edit (programming) videos on Linux?
        
       Hi all, I am thinking of recording some videos. One thing that
       always made me to stay away from video editing is that I believed
       there no good enough tools for Linux. If you are producing videos
       on Linux, please share what you use :)

       | The free version can do pretty much everything you need.

       | Render out to DNxHD, then re-compress to h264 etc. with FFMPEG

           | true, forgot that bit! I like Kazam [1] or OBS for screen
           | recording.

       | AppImage instead of installing through a package manager.

         | effect, and it lets you input Departure and Arrival Latitude &
         | Longitude, among other things. Pretty fun stuff to play with.

       | Everything I was doing in my previous screencast & video editing

       | 
       | For really extra-fancy effects I used to use Blender's effects &

       | scripts I wrote for the screen recording, along with Cinelerra
       | for editing. These days I keep it pretty simple.
       | 
       | Good luck, it should be totally possible with a range of
       | different options.
