Awesome stuff Robin, I'll check out openmovieeditor and your ardour3

I don't think I need it. :) Syncing with ardour would be great.
Hopefully I can make it all quick and easy, otherwise the singer
freaks out a bit.
All the current videos are done with 2 behringer omni mics and no post
processing. It would be nice if we could have more mics for when
tracks with a drummer, and electric tracks where I drown the singer
out a bit. Ardour3 or openmovieeditor look like the plan.
Thanks tons!

If you don't need fancy video editing (zoom automation or sth.):
openmovieeditor.org - it's fairly easy to get started with and it can be
synced to JACK transport.
The alternatives are Blender (syncs with JACK) and Cinelerra or PiTiVi
or.. (kino, avidemux, lives..)
For the final mastering step (mux Audio/Video and export different
formats) use ffmpeg or mencoder.
ffmpeg -i input-video.avi \
-i input-audio.wav \
-vcodec libx264 -vpre hq -acodec aac -ab 192k -b 800k output.mp4
or
... -vcodec mpeg4 -acodec mp2 -ab 128k -b1000k output.avi
if your input-video.avi already has an audio-track that you want to
replace use '-map 0:0 -map 1:0'. Of course there are much more options.
man ffmpeg is your friend.
Blender for multi track video and if you want
audio too but I would
suggest using blender only for the video and one of the many audio daws
ardour, qtractor, muse, rosegarden, audacity for the multi track audio
part. With blender 2.49 you can sync with a jack script but latest
blender svn has native jack support.
There is also lumiera, cinelerra, avidemux, and several other multitrack
video editors.
lumiera is still in the early stages of development not yet usable.
Also Robin Gareus has just released a patch for
ardour3 that provides a
native video timeline using xjadeo which needs testing if you are keen.
It's been announced on the ardour-dev list. It'd be great to get some
feedback; but note that ardour3 is still under heavy development.
