Re: [CinCV] xml into .avi or .mov
Rendering as you say I get the following error message: virtual int File DV::open_file(int, int): Raw DV format does not support following audio configuration: 0 channels at sample rate: 48000Hz But if I render it after ticking both render audio tracks and render video tracks it does so. After that I tried to render the Raw DV into both '.avi' and '.mov', and it does so, but the quality is just as awful as without rendering to Raw DV first. I read something about having a audio video set into two complements 16bits (Pcm) in order to have a video render into '.mov'. I'm not so sure if I'm interpreting it right. Would that be the problem here?

[CinCV] xml into .avi or .mov
I'd like to know if it's possible to take a '.xml' video that I have edited and save it in '.avi' or '.mov' simply by using the key save as. I have Cinelerra manual and there it says that before saving a video if I don't choose an extension, it'll automatically save as '.xml', but as matter of fact, it doesn't really matter if I choose an extension on my own, it still saving everything as '.xml'. For example: I have a video, let supose, called birds1.mov. Then I edit it and after I go to the save as key and type on the top window bird1.mov - because I want to save it as '.mov'. But then, after clicking ok, it shows up as saved as bird1.mov.xml. Why? How can have it the way I want? Is it a bug or a problem because I'm a Kubuntu 7.10 user?
Re: [CinCV] xml into .avi or .mov
The .xml file is your edit decision list used internally by cinelerra to remember your edit. It's not the final output. You need to render the file to your desired output format. ciao Daniel On Mon, Mar 2, 2009 at 12:24 PM, Thiago Guagliardo Klohn thiago_kl...@yahoo.co.uk wrote: I'd like to know if it's possible to take a '.xml' video that I have edited and save it in '.avi' or '.mov' simply by using the key save as.

Re: [CinCV] xml into .avi or .mov
Hey, Matthew - It worked as you instructed me, but the out come was a video with images in pink, green and blue colors mainly. How can it be fixed? Is there a name for that kind of erro so that I may research it? I couldn't find an option to render my '.xml' as '.mov' either - there must be a way to do it, but I just couldn't find it.
