Vivia

Vivia is a video editing software available for both Linux and Windows operating systems, designed to provide efficient and user-friendly editing of DV video materials. The software comes with a handful of useful features that makes video editing more convenient and streamlined.

One of the key features of "Vivia" is its efficient and easy editing capabilities for clips and transitions. Users can easily edit clips and transitions in a single project and join them together to create a visually appealing output.

Another feature that distinguishes Vivia from other video editing software is its "Multi-cam" edit mode which supports natural editing of scenes recorded by multiple cameras simultaneously. This feature is particularly useful in music videos and interviews.

Vivia also supports multiple "scenes" in a single project. This feature makes it possible for users to combine different video elements and create a cohesive output.

To compile Vivia on Linux, follow the steps outlined below:

1. Ensure that you have Qt 4.1, SDL 1.2, and OpenGL installed.
2. Run ./build-ffmpeg-linux.sh.
3. Change the directory to src.
4. Run qmake.
5. Run make.

The requirements for Vivia are Qt 4.1, ffmpeg, libsdl, and OpenGL.

The latest release of Vivia offers some interesting new features and improvements, including a bug fix for the scrollbar bug in Multicam mode and the inability to load image files on Windows. There's also a new interface for editing clips and transitions. Moreover, Vivia no longer uses OpenGL for graphics acceleration, as too many people don't have accelerated OpenGL drivers. The software now uses SDL instead, although OpenGL will be added again in the future.
