A Nice DV Editor

[aay]

I did an "apt-get install kino/unstable."

Thank you, thank you. This was just the hint I needed to get the latest version of Kino 0.6.4 loaded onto my 06-27-2003 version of Knoppix 3.2.
I kept trying the " apt-get install kino" command but reported back that the latest version of Kino 0.6.0 was installed. Did not know about telling apt-get to install the "unstable" newer 0.6.4 version.

I still need to play with Kino, but I could now play AVI files and download from my Canon GL1 camera a few clips, that were automatically separated into several clips. I put the clips together to make a test video.
I had fun, using Knoppix and my Video Camera. Will next try to export to MPEG files to make either a VCD or an SVCD to burn and play in my DVD player.

Hey I'm glad it works. I still don't have a DV cam but I'm glad someone is able to make good use of Kino.

Re the /unstable trick. There is another version of this that comes in handy too. Sometimes /unstable solves the dependency problems, but sometimes not. When that doesn't work, I've found that most dependency problems can be solved like this:

apt-get install -t unstable kino

/unstable will get only the application from unstable
-t unstable will get the application and all dependencies to make that application work from unstable.

Take care.
