Hi, I am looking for video clipping tool that record the last 60 seconds or so from any game I play, but on Linux. Software such as MedalTV, Nvidia ShadowPlay(i have AMD card) etc.. is what I am on the lookout for. I know OBS is one option, probably the best(?), but are there any other suggestions?

Any tips or suggestions appreciated :)

Some further investigation lead me to ReplaySorcery; https://github.com/matanui159/ReplaySorcery However, it is a couple of years old now, no update this 2021.

Any one knows a powerful video editing software easy to use? Im currently looking looking at KDLive which seems to run on linux but still!

It depends on the tasks you are planning to do.

Here is a list with a bunch https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/List_of_applications/Multimedia#Video_editors I tested most of them. While they all work fine, I had better experience with the flatpak versions when available.

If you just want to do some quick cutting, trimming or merging - LosslessCut https://mifi.no/losslesscut/

I use ffmpeg from terminal for quick stuff that I do often. Like resizing a video, cutting, getting an image from a frame.

Lightworks and DaVinci resolve are industry standard, but require a license to use most of it. The problem with their free version is the limitation of input and output formats. Ideal if you are making movies/going professional. I prefer DaVinci Resolve, keep an eye for hardware sale, sometimes it comes with a license bundled - Speed Editor being the cheapest.

Kdenlive is well-rounded, from the open source is the most robust, and with most maintainers. I use it mostly for gameplay and to add voice over to videos.

For recording voice over and sound FX, there is nothing better than Ardour https://ardour.org/

Natron is great for Visual FX, you can also use Blender for pretty much everything.
