Ever since I changed from the Mac environment to Linux, I have been wanting to find a simple and quick way to save video snippets from video files that I have (avi, mov, mp4, mkv).

Is there anyone out there that actually does this with any success? On the Mac I used MPEG Streamclip with great success. I have been trying to install the latest Avidemux with no success. I tried compiling it from their website. I have also tried installing from ppa when I searched google. Doesn't work.

I am using Linux Lite 2.0. I just want a simple and straightforward way to select snippets from a video file and save those snippets to my HD.

I have tried the following:

Code:
avconv -i input.mkv -ss 00:27:20 -t 00:33:40 -c copy output.mkv

This works but I am not sure what would be a quick way to scrub the video so I could quickly identify the start and end markers. Right now I am using VLC player to search for what I want to mark. Pretty cumbersome. Is there an easier way?

Thanks so much!

Hello everyone!

Linux Lite was my main (and first!) linux OS 2 or 3 years ago. I even won a competition about a year ago, loved it. Since then I've used a lot of distros, finally ending up at Arch, which I've used for about 9 months now. Arch has eventually got kind of annoying, I'm tired of constantly struggling to get certain things working, so I decided to come back to my roots (with my tail between my legs lol). Lite has changed since I got it, I'm loving the whisker menu  8)

I look forward to being part of this community

-Dan

When I try to do a reply to Message:

I get the following:

Code:

Please contact the server administrator, [email protected] and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error. More information about this error may be available in the server error log. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Can post replies to other threads

Hi,

For consistency I wanted to edit the Labels of the Libre Office entries.
The menu did not update after the edits, any ideas.?? Thanks... Dave

Hello,
used public domain image of the girl meditating, fixed her hair line as it was broken, fixed her make up as it was half outside her face, recoloured every area of the image 100% in Gimp.
Made the rest myself in Gimp.
Used the pepper brush and put a pepper in her hand as it just seemed nice idea.

Just now getting into the Bevel Reflect Logo plug in. It isn't just a plug in, it's an application all of its own. utterly amazing. Has another side benefit, it creates a sphere from the chosen list of Gradients used for the font. Most were discarded, weren't very interesting save for this one in particular. The original appeared to have two parallel rivers flowing across it and thought something interesting may come of them. There are four variants. Here are numbers two and three respectively. There was no fracture initially...that came later.

Didn't play around with colors at first, as shown in example two above. With example three below, just let 'er fly.

This font is called "Medusa", and is now my favorite of the Gothics contained in my font listing. There were numerous failed attempts with this one before finally producing something that may be worth presenting.

Installed DeaDBeeF 0.6.2 and, after experimenting with Design mode and plugins, created a simple layout to match the Watermark Grey theme.

I'm a subscriber to BT Broadband Unlimited andI've had the oddest problem over the past couple of weeks.  Every time I launch my browser (any browser) I get connected to BT Wi-fi-with-FON instead of directly through my normal router connection. Even when I try to change it manually via the task bar icon it stubbornly resists - sometimes many times.

Funny thing is that I have no such problem with my tablet nor does my son with his Windows (excuse the foul language) machine. Only on my laptop with LL.

Any ideas how on to fix this, folks?
