Avisynth like NonLinear Editor for Linux

In my Red5 application, I need a tool that can tak开发者_开发技巧e 4 video streams and merge them into one bigger video in a 2x2 grid (like security camera videos). Avisynth’s script seem easy to use however:

• it doesn’t generate output (a new video file with the NLE commands applied)
• it doesn’t work on linux

is there some NLE frameserver for linux that can run scripts and give me output files?

If you are doing this in real-time you can use Xuggle. There are some demos floating around which show side by side displays of two videos ( I believe one is original and the second is a filtered copy). At one point the author of Xuggle was working on a commercial version which touted this feature.

If you are doing this strictly as playback on stored video you can use FFMPEG. There are numerous questions about this on SO.

• FFMPEG 2 Videos transcoded and side by side in 1 frame?
• FFMPEG - errors when combining videos
