I've updated my QT for Linux Compatibility doc. Again, the purpose of it is to give an exhaustive list of all the Quicktime compression schemes available and their compatibility in Cinelerra, Mplayer and some other media players. The doc now has two main sections, one based on an HDV resolution

I will check Kino (though I haven't used it before!). Also, this will be a good chance for me to utilize Batch Render! Never done that before.. :) -- Original message -- From: "Herman Robak" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > On Tue, 19 Sep 2006 06:01:05 +0200, Scott C. Frase

Oh, I just realized, you said your source was HDV? What's the frame size? I recall someone (I think Herman) telling me that DV is limited to a smaller frame size, so if the only working combination is QT/DV, and your source is HDV, then you have no options for MPlayer compatibility... Ugh. :)

Kevin, Good point. It didn't occur to me that I left DV out because I have an HDV camera and so I didn't even TRY the DV option! That's a big "duh" on my part. A while back, I had produced a guide for beginners on how to get usable content out of Cinelerra for a variety of purposes: ( http://con
