+Kino is a non-linear DV editor for GNU/Linux.
+
+It features excellent integration with IEEE 1394 for capture, VTR
+control, and recording back to the camera. It captures video to disk
+in raw DV or AVI format in both type-1 DV and type-2 DV (separate
+audio stream) encodings.
+
+Kino does not support other video file formats or encodings, but it
+can import them by transcoding with FFmpeg and optionally MEncoder.
+
+This requires libraw1394, libavc1394, libiec61883, libdv, libsamplerate,
+and optionally ffmpeg, all of which available from SlackBuilds.org.
