AppImage has some great advantages but also some disadvantages, one of which is stated below from the manual:

It is recommended for > best > results that you build CINELERRA-GG on your specific computer.. > There is an AppImage workaround that another user provided to solve this library problem, but it is not for the casual user - https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/CinelerraGG_Manual/Managing_AppImage.html The laptop computer that I created the AppImage that you are using is an AMD based computer running an older Fedora version 32 and has the following installed: > ./usr/lib64/libvdpau.so.1.0.0 > ./usr/lib64/libvdpau.so.1 > ./usr/lib64/libvdpau.so > ./usr/lib64/vdpau/libvdpau_radeonsi.so.1.0.0 > ./usr/lib64/vdpau/libvdpau_radeonsi.so.1.0 > which I "think" is included in the AppImage generated there. (Andrew is knowledgeable in this area but I am not, so further clarification may have to come from him).
