-PiTiVi is a free, intuitive, and feature-rich movie editor.
+pitivi (video editor)
-This is a repackaging of the PiTiVi bundles.
+Pitivi is a Free video editor with a beautiful and intuitive user
+interface, a clean codebase and a fantastic community.
+
+It uses the gstreamer media framework, so it has support for most
+audio/video formats. It includes hundreds of animated effects,
+transitions and filters.
+
+Future versions are not currently possible on 14.2 due to requiring
+newer gst libraries than are included on 14.2.
+
+gst-libav is an optional dependency to add libav support to gstreamer
+
+The following optional dependencies are not currently available on SBo:
+pycanberra - enable sound notification when rendering completes
+GnomeDesktop - file thumbnails provided by GNOME's thumbnailers
+notify - enables visual notifications when rendering is complete
+
+NOTE: Please make sure python3-dateutil and python3-six are installed
+before building python3-matplotlib!
