Hi Bart.
I've got my distro info in the article, Fedora 21, KDE, and or Gnome, no accellerated openGL unfortunately. Hence my issues with Lightworks, my test machine doesn't meet tech requirements.
As far as Kdenlive goes, I will be going to revisit it to figure out where the transitions have got to. I hope I can find the source of the issue in a short time as I quite like the layout and use of standard Avid like shortcuts with Kdenlive.
Cheers

Thanks for the support.
I'm sure once you start with Blender, your going to get hooked and you probably wont stop at video either. I'm definitely interested in checking out Quentin Theuret's recommendation of Natron too. Maybe I will review of that in the future too.
Have fun getting hooked on Blender, I know that the Blender community is extremely helpful too if you need help.
Cheers.
