Hi folks,

as far as I know video editing needs lots of RAM and CPU in general, so I would
go for a system with plenty CPU cores and much RAM, at least 32 GiB, better
more. This would make the system future-proof to some degree in different ways:
- You will need much memory for huge (GUI) software like libreoffice, chromium,
  qtwebengine and similiar in the future.
- You will need the memory for video editing, especially if you like to use a
  GUI programm to do so.
- The general trend was always to use more and more memory for each application,
  and my last hardware was an x86 CPU (not ARM like the Raspberry Pies) with
  only 8 GiB of RAM which wasn't fun anymore with Gentoo.

For the software I would take a look at kdenlive and ffmpeg (both have packages
in probably every linux distribution):

https://ffmpeg.org

The Raspberry Pi image (stage3) seems to be unmaintained so far:

Actually not. Gentoo supports *many* and even older architectures, but not
all. If there is no-one to maintain it than there is no support. No hard
feelings, just pure pragmatism.

Kind regards,
Nils
