I've used it before, cutting a chunk out of a converted .flv IIRC, and
it's okay. For converting from avi to mpeg, or flv to avi, I prefer
ffmpeg and the command line. That script was just a quickly knocked
together "GUI" front end.

If you are wanting a GUI avidemux is a good one, it is just a graphic front 
end for all the command line tools but it can be uses as a very basic video 
editor as well as video converter.  You can find it in packman repo and it 
has both qt4 and gtk versions.  Hope this helps you any

What, you mean you don't like a CLI? :-)

While not really a GUI application, just a script that uses kdialog to
display some dialog boxes, this might help:

Oh, and it's configured to use ffmpeg rather than mencoder. If needs be,
it can be adapted to use mencoder options instead of ffmpeg.

If I had a GUI tool, I'd use it. 

I just know that - were I to hypothetically download an .avi or .mpg4 movie or 
dvd from a bitorrent site - I'd be able to use that command to convert it to 
DVD format for use in the KDE DVD Authoring wizard to make a DVD.

But since I never use my neighbor's wifi and I never go on bittorrent sites, I 
wouldn't know about such things.

No Kai!,

Voodoo is _not_ allowed! Put up the wiji board and have faith in the
man page. The supernatural is reserved for the folks in South Louisiana.
You scare me sometimes ;-)
