Re: [CinCVS] [CINELERRA-CV MANUAL] Licensing issues solved

2006-11-01 Thread mack allison
 Since we are almost ready to collaborate on the manual, who is interested in contributing to the manual?I would be greatly interested in contributing to the manual. Specifically, it may not be cinelerra specific, but a section on rendering common formats would be useful. Though much of the relevant information (encoder command-line-fu) would technically be the documentation of each encoder used, it relates so closely to any results oriented approach to using cinelerra that it seems essential. 
Ideas would be essentially: How to get a universally playable DVD, iPod Movies, etc. out. I'd be willing to contribute to this as I figure out how to get these transmissible formats out myself.
  BTW, should we use American English, or Great-Britain English in the  manual? What's your opinion?Everyone knows that colour is better than color. It is done for onepathetic dyslexic president. So I suggest through in stead of thru.
Thru is not correct in any form except Corp-Speak :) I don't really care myself, I'm from the US, but generally likely to write words in either form, especially when replying to something written in British English. Colour does look better with a 'u,' I always write that *wrong*. 
Adopting the form of the bulk of contributed documentation seems to be the wisest course, IMHO.

Ah yes, there was the problem, I checked out sources at 4am, and must have been blurrier than I thought because I checked them out of thesvn://svn.skolelinux.org/cinelerra/tags/r1_2_2-last/hvirtual
for no logical reason I can recall.I agree the way SVN handles revisions made it hard to find the fault, but I feel dumb none the less. Thanks for the fix.MackOn 10/29/06,

[CinCVS] background render makes cinelerra unstable.

2006-08-21 Thread mack
I started using background render in cinelerra and ever since it's been
markedly unstable during playback, especially when playing back past the
last rendered frame, it crashes a lot there.

Are there options I need to tweak that have improved this for anyone?
Without BGR my cinelerra install was pretty stable during editing.

thx,
Mack

Re: [CinCVS] Red line on time line, video goes to green.

2006-08-19 Thread mack
OK, so I figured out that the red line marks a background render point.
I had fiddled with that feature earlier and thought nothing happened.

So I guess the question is why are all my background rendered frames
displayed as nothing but green in the compositor? I suppose I'm not
setting something up right. . . 

Thanks again

Re: [CinCVS] video playback stops working

2006-08-17 Thread mack

For further information, I'm using a pair of nvidia cards with the nv
driver, in xcinerama.  Switching the video ouput driver to x11 from
x11/xv has made the problem go away for the time being without issue.
I'll try the ffmpeg-to-unstick xv trick at some point, but right now the
x11 driver is *working for me*

Re: [CinCVS] SIGSEGV on render.

2006-08-16 Thread mack
I never really spent any time with the 32 bit cinelerra before building
for 64 so I can't really say.  64 bit hasn't been terribly crash prone,
it just tends to be silent about why things aren't working right.

That it loads in  30 seconds makes closing and reopening not
frustrating, and there's the backup log.

So far the timeline interface is confounding and making me question my
sanity.  I'll get through it.  I don't know how much of that at this
point is my inexperience with cinelerra or with professional NLE in
general.  

Thanks to all,
Mack

  64 bit Cinelerra is accepted as less crash-prone and is recommended by

   I sincerely doubt that.  But I don't have any data to support it.
 
 Hi Herman
 
 Just an impression.  I accept your counter impression.
 
 
  I don't believe you get any more working render codecs or other
  advantages running Cinelerra 32 bit.
 
 
 
   Not if your OS already runs well in 64-bit mode, and all the
  applications you want to run work, too.  But that's still a
  quite big if...
 
 I wasn't making an argument for 64-bit distros as a whole although FC4 
 is working reasonably well for me.  Just that cin-64 is not missing codecs.
 
 I miss many 32bit aps and am considering whether I need to set up 
 another box for them.  I actually made the 64-bit decision based on a 
 desire to use cinelerra intensively so I can relate to the path Mack has 
 taken.  However I am finding 64 bit excludes me from the multimedia 
 support provided by ccrma which has meant a lot of work to get things 
 like jack and ardour working.  And I have had zero luck with rezound.
 
 all the best
 Graham E.

[CinCVS] video playback stops working

2006-08-16 Thread mack
I have repeated occasions of the video playback in both Viewer and
Compositor stopping entirely.  When this happens, Everything appears to
behave normally, audio plays fine and the timeline window and other
indicators of playback are updated normally.  No unusual console
messages are displayed (just some usual things about alsa . . .)

Restarting cinelerra repeatedly could not provoke playback.  Rebooting
the computer made behavior normal again.  I suspect a simple X restart
would have sufficed, and I'll check the next time i see this behavior.

Any related experiences/ideas?

thx,
Mack

Re: [CinCVS] video playback stops working

2006-08-16 Thread mack
More info on that: my problem is seems to be triggered by running
another video application while cinelerra is running, such as mplayer or
vlc.  I thought it was caused by rendering initially, but it was when I
watched the rendered output in a player.

It's avoided by closing cinalerra before opening mplayer/vlc/other video
playback applications.

Restarting X11 unjams the bug.

 I had exactly the same issue yesterday.  A reboot also solved my
 problem.  I wrote about this in the Build Error thread about revision 839.

I think I compiled it with the -g flags as requested now, by doing:

./configure CFLAGS=-g LDFLAGS=-g --enable-pic

and of course make clean, make, and make install

I'm not sure how you want me to run this through gdb to get the right
info.
