Hi Jeff.
Thanks for the comment. I was using version pitivi-0.94-x86_64.
I'll definitely be looking at this in the future. As I said in my review.

"it looks like it has potential to be simple to use.......
I'll try again when version 1.0 is released."

I would be happy to talk to you guy's IRC in the future but for this review, I was approaching it from the WYSIWIG, download, install, run, I'm an impatient artist trying to find a tool now! sense. Pitivi has heaps of promise.
Cheers

Hi Mikko.
You are indeed correct. These reviews are taken from the perspective of a professional video editor who wants to find a "professional" like editing tool. I'm sure that this tool has alot of merit to people who have taken the time to learn it.

"I approached this as I would if I was an impatient artist trying to find THE tool for the job, with no time for messing about for little or no results."

Cheers
