It's older than dirt, but I like  Kino. It's SIMPLE! You do have to use 
the command line "padsp kino" so pulse is invoked for the audio, when 
kino expects to find /dev/snd

I would love for kino to be upgraded to use multicores and faster 
algorithms. If all you want it to edit an existing video (cut and/or 
paste), it is dead simple to use. I just turned 69, simple is better. 
But, if you need to create a video from merged video and audio tracks, 
kdelive works just fine.
