I do not know why but offen i read that video editing on Linux is an adventure. From my point of view that is nonsense and here are the proofs why video editing on Linux is easy:
BlenderYes, Blender has a superb video editor that works without 3D rendering
CinerellaA video editing software for pros too
OpenshotNew at the area of video editing and tries to be a "easy to use" video editor
AVIdemuxNothing is faster, better and easier for cutting the raw data into parts
KdenliveA full featured video editor for the KDE desktop

This year Gran Canaria hosted both the
Akademy and GUADEC conferences. The most important hackers from KDE and GNOME were for the first time at the same place.
Now the
videos of a large amount of talks are available. My favorite one is
Matthew Paul Thomas about Common interface bloopers - really true, very funny

I updated my Flash SWF Export for GIMP again. This time i added animation support. Any layer of an GIMP image will be exported as a frame of an Flash SWF animation (not a Flash Video FLV).
Later i will add support for Windows too.

One of most feature requests of Linux users about Flash was a 64bit Flash Player,
Adobe make it now happend. This is the first 64bit Flash Player at all, a version for Mac OS X and Windows will follow later. But it isn't final yet, some functionality is still missing: camera, microphone, fullscreen via OpenGL.
The 64bit Flash Player isn't faster then the 32bit. For more performance
Tinic Uro, a Adobe Flash developer, recommended to disable the nspluginwrapper. Bugs of the 64bit Flash Player can be reported at
Adobe Bugs.

The free video codec
Ogg Theora reaches now the final state. Ogg Theora is open source and based on the VP3 codec of On2 Technologies. Ogg Theora includes a new and faster decoder and will be used for the OLPC project too. Upcoming versions of the browser Firefox will support it by default.

Adobe published now the
final Flash Player 10. This version brings a lot of improvements to the Linux platform. Now the Linux Flash Player has the same features as on any other platform. For more details check out the
feature page.
Best of all Adobe provides now
a Deb archive for Ubuntu 8.04 but they use their own file structure and it seems there is no 64bit build again
To enjoy Flash Player 10 without smashing your Ubuntu:- extract the Deb archive (do not install it)
- extract the data.tar.gz
- copy as root the file "install_flash_player_10_linux/usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so" to "/usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree"

Adobe released today a
first beta of the Flash Player 10.
This version brings a lot more hardware acceleration to Flash and makes it more, more powerfull. Now raster images, video overlays and effects will be rendered with
OpenGL 2.0 directly on the graphics board.
With the new
Pixel Bender language it will be easy for designers to create own effects too. Best of all this beta is
released for Linux too.
Download it and copy the binaries as root to "/usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree". Shutdown your browswer and restart it, open the url "about:plugins" to make sure it's available.

During my own update session and the talk about
WINE at the
Hardy release party Berlin i forget that besides the normal Ubuntu distribution
Ubuntu Studio 8.04 is available too.
Ubuntu Studio is a special edition packed with a lot off tools for creatives focused on Graphics, Sound and Video. It ships with a special dark theme too and supports realtime audio by the kernel. You can update your normal Ubuntu installation to Ubuntu Studio by installing the "ubuntu-studio-*" packages.
Thanx to
Dan for reminding me

I looked for such a tiny tool like
WinFF. WinFF is a simple GUI for
FFMPEG to convert various types of video files (AVI, Quicktime, Flash Video, MPEG) from one into another format. WinFF 0.41 is a bugfix release, all changes can be found in the
release log.
If you are using Ubuntu Linux you can
download a Deb archive too.

Adobe is working on an update for its Flash player 9 that will bring DRM to Flash. Since the popularity of Flash video and the support for H.264 the music and film industry like to get back control of the streamed content. This step could stop the development of
Gnash and
SWFdec, two alternatives to Adobes Flash player, too.

dark side of Adobe at the EFF.org.
