Oh, memory! I remember I was reading those lines but completely forgot where!
========= https://crazedmuleproductions.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html?m=0 Friday, July 16, 2010 Green Beret parachutes in to help Cinelerra Unbelievably, just in the past week, the Cinelerra CV community (http://cvs.cinelerra.org/) has had a heavyweight developer parachute in and start fixing stuff all over the place. The guy is Chris "Monty" Montgomery who developed the Ogg multimedia container and Vorbis audio formats (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Montgomery). He is a developer currently working for Red Hat. Monty, You're The Man! His primary effort has been to yank out the kludgy and incompatible file loader in Cinelerra and replace it using good old FFmpeg. FFmpeg has problems of its own, but a helluva lot less problems than the Cinelerra loader. This is a task that the original developer of Cinelerra, Heroine Warrior (http://www.heroinewarrior.com/), has wisely done with the 4.1 version of Cinelerra. Much props to Father HV, for without him, this blog and Open Source video editing would be very different, if exist at all. ===== Unfortunately xiph.org migrated their git without user directories, so only patches survived reside in directory archived by archive.org (duh!) https://web.archive.org/web/20150323164307/http://people.xiph.org/~xiphmont/cinelerra/patches/ not all patches downloadable, but biggest (18 mb!) first one surely is Note, I am not saying code from this experiment directly entered cingg vi cincv (I mistaken files with same names but different content) yet it shows how three separate parts (one from cincv (ffmpeg wrapper class from 2004!)), another from hv (Adam's 2008 experiment) and work by Monty in 2010) formed something users can test! -- Cin mailing list Cin@lists.cinelerra-gg.org https://lists.cinelerra-gg.org/mailman/listinfo/cin
