Hi,

To clarify this error affected Cinelerra versions prior to 2.2CV as well.
I have noted the same error when editing H.264 video from an iPod Touch.
In my experience the error was annoying and will interrupt playback on the
timeline however I could still do fades and titling etc. and render the
finished product successfully.

As Raffa clearly says in the link that Einar posted AVC/H.264/MPEG-4 are
very lousy editing formats and take major CPU horsepower for Cinelerra to
decode, one thing about Cinelerra is that if you take a bit of extra time
to give it an input format it likes it will reward you with greatly
increased stability.

I realize not everyone enjoys converting video to different formats with
the CLI or batch scripts, I personally have set up my own DNxHD and MJPEG
presets in WinFF (an ffmpeg GUI frontend) and it will do batches as well.
Unfortunately preset exporting in WinFF seems broken currently so I can
post the actual preset files to share, but I could share the commandlines
or my own custom WinFF 'presets.xml' file that I use in AV Linux if anyone
is interested.

Regards -GLEN
