My quick snooping on the registrar records for jonathanleighton.com suggest that you live in Reading in the UK. That is PAL country. Cinelerra defaults to NTSC. It has to be told to use 720x576 pixels and 25 frames per second. I have changed the default to PAL in my private build of Cinelerra, and I will check that change in someday. Yes, that will be less convenient for those in NTSC land, but they are fewer. The ultimate solution is to set the default according to LOCALE, and to nag the users who load PAL video into an NTSC project or vice versa. That's for a rainy day, or a longer manic episode. -- Herman Robak _______________________________________________ Cinelerra mailing list Cinelerra@skolelinux.no https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
