[CinCV] Re: Cinelerra YUV4MPEG render problems.
Hello again. I've found a workaround, see below. (Yes, it's been this long since I've had to make a DVD project.) On 02/06/2009 02:32 AM, Sean M.

[CinCV] Running with GDB - gathering crash back-traces
Hello, everyone. Here's a quick HOWTO for running Cinelerra under the GNU Debugger (gdb) and getting a back-trace of a crash to help the developers isolate and fix the problem: 1) Install the gdb package on your system 2) When you're ready to try to reproduce the crash, open a terminal and enter gdb /path/to/cinelerra 3) When the (gdb) prompt comes up, just type run and hit Enter. 4) Use Cinelerra as needed to trigger the crash. 5) When it crashes, you will get a (gdb) prompt in the terminal again. Type thread apply all bt and press Enter. 6) Keep pressing Enter to view all of the pages until you get a (gdb) prompt back again. (You may have to do it quite a few times depending on how many threads were running.) 7) Copy all of the output from when you started (with the 'run' command) to the final (gdb) prompt into a text file. 8) Attach this file to a bug report or message to this mailing list as appropriate.

Beyond that, if both channels were exactly the same, you can just pan
the right one to center and be good. If not, if all the edits were done
identically to the left and right, you could hack a copy of the XML file
and:
1) copy paste the entire TRACK/ code block from the right channel 2)
search replace 'CHANNEL=1' with 'CHANNEL=0' in the pasted block
(or whatever the correct channel number is for your sources.)
3) Change the track name in the TITLE/ tag.
(I once discovered that I had pressed 'd' but didn't know it since the
affected track wasn't on my screen to begin with and I had to
reconstruct it that way. Thank heavens it's just XML!)
Hope that helps!

Re: [CinCV] NTSC/PAL HDV question
Hello there. I'm not an expert, having never used HD footage in Cinelerra yet, so others may chime in here. First of all, you'll want to set the project settings in Cinelerra to your target output format (whether thats 720x576i @ 25fps or 1920x1080p @ 25fps or whatever.) Then make sure Cinelerra is correctly detecting the format of the source video (right-click it in the Media window and choose Info.) I know that at least on SD, NTSC uses bottom-field-first and PAL uses top-field-first. I would imagine it's the same for HD, so you might first try changing the field order of the source video in the Info box. (If the field order is wrong, you'll see horrible shaking on slow pans motion.) If that doesn't make a difference, you'll probably need to de-interlace the source using a de-interlace effect on the whole track, then the rendering engine will take care of re-interlacing if the project settings specify it. (To prevent detail loss, see the topics on the following wiki page about Defeating Interlacing and Making video look like film. http://cinelerra.org/docs/split_manual_en/cinelerra_cv_manual_en_21.html) Hope this helps!

Using the AMD64 Cinelerra package from Valentina Messeri's repo and debian-multimedia's AMD64 repo to fill in the gaps. I've been quite pleased with Cinelerra on this system. Yes there are a couple bugs with some effects, and you have to save often (thankfully it's one keystroke (s) so I do it after almost every successful edit) but once you get into that habit, it's very usable. (I usually start Cinelerra from a command prompt so I can 1) see why it crashed if it does and 2) restart it with two keystrokes (cursor up Enter.)) Heroine Virtual even says that Cinelerra is more stable in 64-bit than 32. In fact, I purchased the workstation I did due to their system requirements. I'm also coming from Adobe Premiere 4.2 on SGI/IRIX, and if you want to talk about buggy...I had so many workarounds for bugs on that thing it was a large project just to do a slide show video (having to render stills differently than motion due to artifacts, then trying to join them later in a way that didn't mess up the field order, with really only Motion JPEG-A Quicktime as a choice since all the other codecs were buggy in one way or another!

How can I switch this off globally? And how can I remove controls from a single keyframe? Don't think you can do it globally, but from a single frame, it helps to expand the size of the video tracks (using the combobox at the bottom of the timeline) then right-click the curve tangent point and click Delete.

FWIW, I recently worked around this by choosing MPEG-2 Video in the output format list rather than YUV4MPEG. This still uses mpeg2enc, somehow bypassing the 2YUV stage, but gives you less control over mpeg2enc's options, unfortunately. But at least I could get my project done. Hope this helps you in the meantime.

Re: [CinCV] difficulty loading video files.
Joey Stalone wrote: My problem is, while Cinelerra loads the videos I want it to, it won't play them. When I try to play them, the whole application shuts down with no dialogue, no reason, just *poof* First, I suggest ALWAYS running Cinelerra from a terminal so you can see any crash errors since they're usually only printed to stdout. Do that and get back to us with the output. In the meantime, can you play the video files in xine or mplayer? Sincerely, Sean M.

Re: [CinCV] Cinelerra YUV4MPEG render problems.
Hi again. Daniel Harris wrote: I was having the same problem but I cant remember if it was a problem with the video format ( lets face it cin is pretty sensitive when it comes to file formats) or the pipe command. I'm using raw DV input files as I always have. It's not the pipe because I can disable it, rendering to an uncompressed YUV file, and it still happens. (And any time that message is displayed, the new frame is dropped, so it looks like the video is paused.) Has this area been changed in the latest version of Cinelerra? (I can't get it yet because the AMD64 Debian package still depends on lame0 when it's now called liblame0.) I found a way around for this current project (a DCT filter in DVD-Lab which cheaply lowers the file size and quality, which is okay for the segment I'm doing it to) but I'll be screwed for new projects if I can't figure this out. Will mpeg2enc take anything other than YUV as input? Or can I render back to DV for minimal loss then do the DV-to-YUV-to-MPEG conversion outside Cinelerra? Thanks for your time! Sincerely, Sean M.

[CinCV] Cinelerra YUV4MPEG render problems.
Hello there. I was trying to use Cinelerra today to re-render a sub-project so it'll fit on a DVD. But I'm getting strange errors now using the YUV2MPEG output rendering: [swscaler @ 0x...]Slices start in the middle! Basically anywhere I'm not rendering any effects (source video is being copied to the output.) I recall this happening last month as well. (In between, I've just been making YouTube videos, so no YUV output.) This is on Cinelerra 2.1CV, compiled 6 Jul 2008, on Debian Lenny/Testing, kernel 2.6.26-1-amd64 on a dual-Opteron system. Is there anything I can try? Sincerely, Sean M.
