It was so frustrating: I couldn't find command line tools for simple operation like split a video without re-encoding it or join two videos together that I almost gave up (yes, I know I can change all to avi/divx and get the job done with mencoder, but this pretty much defeat the purpose). In those time I badly wished a barely working PiTiVi... your work will be immensely appreciated when the application will be usable even for the simplest operations.
