Luckily, a new version of cinelerra was just announced on the PLF mailing list. You might try that - just add PLF as one of your urpmi sources (in case you hadn't already) and urpmi cinelerra. It seems that it can do the job, and much more. I've only lightly used it in the past, but the new version looks very capable. However, it's a big resource pig. I tried it on a 650 meg AVI earlier today and all I got was a blank screen, and seemingly only 17 minutes loaded into the thing. That may be due to a resource issue -- as it was successful using a much smaller AVI (42 megs). My machine is a 1 ghz with 256 megs of RAM; I suspect underpowered for this sort of thing. mencoder seems also capable of this but I have not tried it. For avi's there is avisplit, but you're using mpegs. I haven't tried conversion to avi, but that might be an option for you. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ David E.
