This is a guide for setting up OpenShot on Arch Linux. 

 I occasionally do some video editing and I've found that OpenShot is a great tool for the job. This guide will setup OpenShot with the frei0r-plugins and blender for animations and effects. 

 h2. Prepare the Environment 

 * Make sure the system is up to date: 
 <pre> 
 pacman -Syu 
 </pre> 

 h2. Install OpenShot 

 * Install openshot and frei0r-plugins: 
 <pre> 
 pacman -S openshot frei0r-plugins 
 </pre> 

 * Install blender: 
 <pre> 
 pacman -S blender 
 </pre> 

 * Open the OpenShot Preferences and set the *melt* and *blender* paths to @/usr/bin/melt@ and @/usr/bin/blender@ 

 *NOTE*: I needed to install @lib32-glew@ in order to get blender working. In order to accomplish this, I needed to replace @lib32-mesa@ with @lib32-mesa-libgl@: 
 <pre> 
 pacman -Rdd lib32-mesa 
 pacman -S lib32-glew lib32-mesa-libgl 
 </pre>
