Linear Editing involves old style Tape to Tape video editing systems where you essentially had to edit your program in order.

Non Linear Editing systems are the norm today, using computers to lay out a timeline where you can insert video clips, or sections of clips as needed. The overall length of the final program will adjust itself accordingly.

Magnetic Tape is linear and digital is computer. More specifically, linear requires several electronic components like tape machines connected into a switcher console with one output to another tape machine you edit onto. Each and every machine connected into the switcher must be electronically timed so that they match. When editing, everything is done in real time, and whatever is edited on the final master is there forever. You can't change it. Sounds complicated? It sure is.

Nonlinear tosses all that aside because all the components are now digital files, and can be mixed in the computer at will. Other than digitizing those files, there is nothing else that has to be connected to the computer in order to edit.

That's a layman's explanation of what I think you're trying to ask. I .

What is the difference between nonlinear devices and linear devices?

In saturation region transistor acts as a non linear device i.e, there is no linear relation between input and output because in saturation region output does not change for variation in input. Whereas in other operating mode transistor acts as a linear device.


What is difference between linear and nonlinear dynamics in mathematics and physics?

In linear dynamic systems, the motion traces out an orbit or trajectory in phase space that's a looping curve, mathematically predictable. In nonlinear systems the trajectory in phase space may be a fractal structure, leading to motion that is inherently unpredictable (chaos) from its equations of motion.
