Download / Install Avidemux 2.7.0 in Ubuntu:
The getdeb repository and Thanh Tung Nguyen’s PPA maintain the Avidemux packages for Ubuntu, though the two repositories do not update with the new 2.7.0 release at the moment of writing.
The official AppImage, a single executable file for all Linux, is available for download at the link below:
Make the AppImage executable from its ‘Properties’ dialog, and run the file will launch the video editor:
If you don’t see ‘Run’ option, go to menu Edit -> Preferences -> Behavior -> tick the box says ‘Run executable text files when they are opened’, and finally re-open Nautilus file browser.
