Don't thank me, I just started Google'ing what some other
people were doing.  Lo'n behold, the cinelerra.org site
actually had some great info.  After Google'ing, it does
seems the Kwizart repo is well liked for its Livna
compatibility (which is well liked for its Fedora compat).

I've _never_ used that repo before, so use at your own risk.

I was looking for a "configuration" page for Kwizart, but
decided just to send the link to the packages.  Obviously
I looked right over the root of the repo:  

  http://rpms.kwizart.net/kwizart-release-9.rpm

Even better, I took a look inside ...

  $ rpm -qpl /tmp/youradhere/kwizart-release-9.rpm 
  /etc/apt/gpg
  /etc/apt/sources.list.d
  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kwizart.list
  /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-kwizart
  /etc/smart
  /etc/smart/distro.d
  /etc/smart/distro.d/kwizart.py
  /etc/yum.repos.d/kwizart-rawhide.repo
  /etc/yum.repos.d/kwizart-testing.repo
  /etc/yum.repos.d/kwizart.repo
  /usr/share/doc/kwizart-release-9
  /usr/share/doc/kwizart-release-9/kwizart-smart-channels.sh

I love freak'n repos that include Smart [Package Manager]
(as well as APT[-RPM]) configuration files, as well as
YUM[-RPM].

I'm already liking this repo.  Hopefully he'll either adjust
to RPM Fusion (from Livna) and/or directly work on RPM Fusion.

I don't have a "favorite Linux distro."  I use, develop
and support community efforts, often built around Linux.
Technology and solutions are my focus, not dragging in
assumptions, marketing and other concepts which dominate
non-community developed software, which I left long ago.
