For Windows 7 there is a program called Camastia Studio, which I use to edit videos. I need to edit videos on Ubuntu, so I tried to download Camastia and install it via wine, but it doesn't work. What alternatives do I have for editing videos on Ubuntu?

The suggested software should at least include the following options:

  1. cutting video
  2. adding text to the video
  3. zoom while the video is playing
  4. transitions should be available

I would recommend the program "Openshot". Install it from the Softwarecenter. It is quite good for 1 and 4. Point 3, I don't know. Point 2, there is a title function in Openshot. Or alternatively, there are different subtitle tools, as gnome-subtitles, which could do the job.
