The userbase of MLT, the userbase of my own CableText product, and there are many more. NLE is a completely different ballpark. Editors work on Macs, why? Because it is usually stable. If you can say one thing about Cinerella if it crashes it usually maintains your project, which is very good. But is it stable, in my humble opinion it is not. Don't forget the people you should attract! We are not talking about a news room, they use SMIL like stuff (H)DV/SDI footage is inserted, an editor markes begin and end times and it is put in a playlist. If we are targetting film or series editors we should have a benefit for them, and this means like one did before get Cinellera on Mac/Windows so people can actually try it. And think about why Cinellera is better than anything else out there, that certainly runs on less resources! I run Cinelerra because it has most things that one may want for editing. But don't forget all the basic editing that a user does only need a frontend. Many, maybe all actions can be done in tools like ffmpeg. - From what I understand of Cin3 there is a frontend and backend model. I hope it would be a playout and an interface. And if the playout is efficient enough to be used as realtime playout server, and supported some standards (unlike MLT) then we are on the right track. Certainly multiple people can work on the different directions of the project, but as long it is an unfocused effort I hate to say that everything evolves and we will end up with a Kino variant to be the next gen editor for Linux, if not Blender is maybe already at that position first.

If you seek through half an hour of video really quickly, by dragging the slider through the video in twenty-thirty seconds, it will play back blindingly fast: 50-100 times normal speed. Every two seconds of video will be displayed as a single frame. A five second clip will be on the screen less than 1/10 of a second. Yet this brief flash is long enough that you notice it, if you know what you are looking for. I've tried this in Cinelerra with large DV files. It was smooth and responsive. It was useful. I loved it. Now try this with high definition video, which is temporally compressed. It doesn't work. You'll only get a few frames per second at best. Scrubbing and seeking gets at least ten times slower, unresponsive, laggy, jerky. It was not very useful. I hated it. When you zip through a video at 100x speed, you won't care if it was frame 110 or frame 112 that just flashed by. Because your "temporal resolution" has been "zoomed out" to one frame every fourth second. If Cinelerra displayed frame 135 instead of frame 110 you could not possibly tell, because at 100x speed it's just 1/100 second "wrong".

This needs also a sophisticated caching system which maximize and monitor memory usage and ensures that frames which are expensive to render and/or often reused (mpeg keyframes for scrubbing) are readily availabe and dont need to be re-rendered.

[CinCVS] I believe in cinelerra continued
I think cinelerra if ever becomes or try to be a PROFESSIONAL tool, must CHASE and LISTEN MARKETS, I´m not of the idea that money is source of all evil... actually, I HOPE that MATROX releases its SDK so the comunity can develop products out of it, and in that way, when cinelerra becomes a HARDWARE/SOFTWARE solucion, it could benefit from selling hardware or selling tech support for companies (I work in a company where we provide equipment for tv channels and stuff like that, and they want SUPPORT and most times buy 12 computers with matrox hardware, that´s in the third world, what would happend if you close a deal with editing studios out there or tv channels? maybe some kind of CERTIFICATED TEACHING PROGRAM like blender has now, if cinelerra becomes usable, stable and my company sells solutions based on it, they would PAY to take me to have the certification (actually soon I could become an Adobe Certified trainer, and they pay for that)... cinelerra IS A GREAT TOOL, but it is being hold back because developers want to keep it OUT of markets., well you did it CINELERRA IS NOT in the markey...but cinelerra can be free and produce A LOT OF MONEY, but somekind of foundation may be needed, a CIN3 foundation maybe?. CINELERRA is a great tool but shoud become more industry friendly. - Open Premiere, Vegas, Canopus projects, Finalcut PRO... just the clips, not the filters, thjat would helps studios to have linux in 1 computer CONECTING to other pcs or macs. - have somekind of support for AfterFX filters - EXTENSIBLY USE FREE formats: loading xcf with layer, and allowing select which layer use or load a layer in each track Use blender 3D scenes to implement FX, and SAVE cinelerra layers in blendfiles so blender user can load it in sequencer, and use CIN-MASKs or rotoscopying A PROJECT, not just a video. - FORGET ABOUT COMMANDLINE PARAMETERS for the user. - ALL should be Preseteable, so user can reuse parts of a projects, animations, masks or things like that in other projects. - render parallely to 3GP and FLV when you render your project in sd/hd so you cand have the render for distribution in any media at the same time. - DVD from timeline. those´re just ideas, listen or ignore it... no big deal, but LISTEN WHAT TE MARKET IS SAYNG, and the market IS NOT USING LINUX. ok, bye there are many cool stuff that can be achieved, and cinelerra can make money with no need of DONATIONS, if cin becomes PRO and the market responds, you can make money in many ways, and cin-linux can´t be beaten in some for other tools.
