kdenlive is going to be looked at again for sure.

I'm definitely going to be digging deeper into Kdenlive to see how I can get these transitions to work. I can apply a transition now but it but it still doesn't render.

I'm will also revisit Cinelerra when the new release comes out, according to their site, "New FEDORA & UBUNTU version of Cinelerra to be released February 2, 2015."
And Pitivi diserves another viewing once the new version is ready.

I didn't find any issue with accepting different codecs with Blender 2.72b I have ffmpeg version 2.4.5 installed with a multitude of codecs that were included in the standard Fedora 21 yum repos
