12 I am not deeply familiar with it but I use it a lot, in version
13 media-video/avidemux-2.5.6-r2, with the gtk interface. I have tried to
14 also compile and use with the qt4 UI with less good results. I also
15 found the 2.6.x version to be broken in several ways, but that was a few
16 months ago. So although the 2.5.x version has security holes, I tend to
17 not work on videos with unknown origin, so I am still using that.

19 Maybe this helps you,
