>>>BTW, should this (http://openshotusers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=237) forum post be updated with instructions about Mediainfo? I used those instructions for this bug report.
No but Mediainfo is a great tool and you can either have an ouput in a file text either in a graphical way.


>>>Also, if you are wondering what CamStudio is... It is a GPLed screen capture program for Windows. The codec is also GPLed and implemented in ffmpeg. http://camstudio.org/
I know it same if i was having never used it. The problem is not FFmeg who is a conversion tool but more for read it and works with. Strange that this author continue to use a special codec while there is existing a lot of good codecs and free codecs (like it is a free software).
I am not sure that you will find a editor who can work with, without a conversion.
