Part 2

Hahahaha. I was furious when I saw this in the newsreader, «Where is part two!?». After
reading part 1, I said I was eagerly waiting for part 2 (or something); but I've already done
it myself now.

My work is in fact video editing, and I've got an Apple Mac (G5) with Final Cut Pro for doing
that - but this yule I wanted to really try Linux for video again; and I was suprised. It just
worked (this is on Arch Linux)!

I used dvgrab and Cinelerra, -- and after a day in Cinelerra CV, I must now say that it's not
as bad as I originally thought. I can actually use it!

So I made a small movie with some random footage I had on a tape. Before I was just pushing
Cin3; but now I see that I can use Cinelerra for my own projects if I want. (Yes, I'll still
use FCP for work).

Oh, sorry, that was long and off-topic; but anyway: I'm really looking forward to seeing part
2!

Attentive readers may have noticed that part 2 has not yet been written

Me too, I was puzzled as to how it was possible that I would have missed a Grumpy editor article! I don't think I've missed an LWN front page for 10 years now... :-)
