Are you in need of a simple non-linear video editor for Linux? Consider checking out Vidiot. It\u2019s a straightforward editor tool targeted at new users. It does basic things like compositing, changing speed, transitions, titles, and other essential things a user would want when editing.<\/p>\n

The Vidiot video editor works on Linux, and the developer has ported the program to Ubuntu and Debian via a downloadable DEB package. Additionally, the users can install the application via a standalone TarGZ archive and a Snap package via the Snap store. Here\u2019s how to get it working on your Linux system.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ubuntu installation instructions<\/h2>\n

To get Vidiot on your Ubuntu Linux system up and running, start by opening up a terminal window on the Ubuntu desktop. Press Ctrl + Alt + T<\/strong> on the Linux desktop to launch a terminal window. Or, search for \u201cTerminal\u201d in the app menu and get it working that way.<\/p>\n

With the terminal window on the Ubuntu desktop, use the wget<\/strong> download command to grab the latest release of Vidiot to your computer. Alternatively, head over to SourceForge and download the \u201cVidiot-0.3.34-i386.deb\u201d file via the web browser.<\/p>\n

\nwget https:\/\/sourceforge.net\/projects\/vidiot\/files\/Vidiot-0.3.34-i386.deb\/download -O ~\/Downloads\/Vidiot-0.3.34-i386.deb\n<\/pre>\n
With the command downloaded to your computer, use the CD<\/strong> command to move into the \u201cDownloads\u201d folder where the DEB package is located. Then, use the apt install<\/strong> command to get the Vidiot application installed on your computer.<\/p>\n
\nsudo apt install .\/Vidiot-0.3.34-i386.deb\n<\/pre>\n
Debian installation instructions<\/h2>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
You\u2019ll be able to use Vidiot on Debian Linux via the downloadable DEB package that the developer supplies on their project\u2019s SourceForge page. To start the download of the DEB package, open up a terminal window on the Debian desktop.\u00a0<\/p>\n
To open up a terminal window on the Debian desktop, press the Ctrl + Alt + T<\/strong> keyboard combination. Or, search for \u201cTerminal\u201d in the app menu and launch it that way. When the terminal window is open, use the wget<\/strong> download command to grab the latest release of the Vidiot DEB. Or, go to SourceForge and download the \u201cVidiot-0.3.34-i386.deb\u201d file via the web browser.<\/p>\n
\nwget https:\/\/sourceforge.net\/projects\/vidiot\/files\/Vidiot-0.3.34-i386.deb\/download -O ~\/Downloads\/Vidiot-0.3.34-i386.deb\n<\/pre>\n
After downloading the DEB package to your computer, you need to access the \u201cDownloads\u201d folder on your computer. To do that, use the CD<\/strong> command and access the folder. Or, click on \u201cDownloads\u201d in the Debian file manager.<\/p>\n
\ncd ~\/Downloads\/\n<\/pre>\n
Inside of the \u201cDownloads\u201d folder, use the dpkg -i<\/strong> command to install the latest release of Vidiot on your Debian Linux PC.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\nsudo dpkg -i Vidiot-0.3.34-i386.deb\n<\/pre>\n
Once the package is installed on your computer, you\u2019ll have to correct any dependency issues that may have arisen during the installation process.<\/p>\n
\nsudo apt-get install -f\n<\/pre>\n
Arch Linux installation instructions\u00a0<\/h2>\n
Sadly, there is currently no way to install Vidiot on Arch Linux through official software repos. It also isn\u2019t available for Arch Linux users via the Arch Linux AUR. If you want to get this app working on your Arch system, you\u2019ll have to use Snap.<\/p>\n
To start the installation on Arch Linux, ensure you have the Snapd runtime installed from the AUR. If you do not, please follow our guide on the subject. Once it is set up on your computer, use the following snap install<\/strong> command below to install Vidiot on Arch.<\/p>\n
\nsudo snap install vidiot\n<\/pre>\n
Fedora installation instructions<\/h2>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
Vidiot works on Fedora Linux, but there\u2019s no downloadable RPM package file anywhere to be seen. So instead, if you wish to use this software on your Fedora Linux system, you\u2019ll have to get it working through the Snap store.<\/p>\n
To start the installation on Fedora Linux, ensure you have the \u201cSnapd\u201d runtime installed through the Fedora DNF package manager. If you haven\u2019t set this runtime up on your computer, please follow our guide on the subject.<\/p>\n
After setting up the Snapd runtime on your Fedora Linux system, the installation of Vidiot can begin. Using the snap install<\/strong> command below, set up the app on your computer.<\/p>\n
\nsudo snap instal vidiot\n<\/pre>\n
OpenSUSE installation instructions<\/h2>\n
Like Arch Linux and Fedora Linux, OpenSUSE doesn\u2019t have a way to download and install the Vidiot application on the system. Sadly, the developers haven\u2019t made a native RPM package for the app. Thankfully, OpenSUSE can run the Snap app store, so it is still possible to get the app working.<\/p>\n
To get the latest release of Vidiot working on your OpenSUSE Linux system, start by installing the \u201cSnapd\u201d runtime on your computer using the Zypper package manager. After setting up the Snap runtime on your OpenSUSE computer, you can install the latest release of Vidiot on your computer with the following snap install<\/strong> command below.<\/p>\n
