It looks to me like How can I use raw (containerless) DV? is pretty high up on the list of most frequently asked questions, and the answer people get is You can't. Wrong. The answer people get is Yes! You can! I heard people saying that Raw DV is the best format for source files

Hi For my two cents, the reasons Cinelerra doesn't seem to be worth my time and effort are: : - It won't build. : It won't build - I should never be told that a needed library is missing when the library in question is already installed on my system; To add fuel onto the fire, I must

This has been tested on VectorLinux 5.9-Pseudo2.1. It is based on Slackware 12 but the X version has been upgraded to Xorg 7.3. On previous releases, without Xorg 7.3, Cinelerra worked. The problem is this. When I load up Cinelerra, the splash screen displays fine, the GUI looks fine and

well, this is the email list about the cinelerra-cv ;) It is. As I mentioned in my initial post I was providing the information purely for interest in case it was useful to anyone. could you try it? Not easily in the next few weeks - I don't have time to collect and install the libraries

maybe it's getting off topic, but i had similar sync problems with different recording speeds between one of the camcorders and the mini-disk-recorder in a multi-track project. Yes, you would have. (i solved it by just leaving a blank frame in the camara track every now and then, to let

actually if drift stays constant, then it is very simple to fix in cinelerra.. just right click on asset, and change frequency from 48000 to 48002 or some similar value - depending on the scale of your drift. Yeah, that would work in some situations; of course working out what the magic

Looks like I was chasing ghosts (or my own tail) with this one. Seems the table of contents file was corrupt. When I manually created a table of contents for my HDV source file, the render worked properly. I'm glad to hear it. The symptoms were a little strange though, even for a TOC issue.

I'm having a problem with the audio sync on a rendered video. This is a video of a rock band playing. I have used the original audio from the cam (720P HDV, MPEGTS, 48.1khz audio) to sync up a multi-track recording of the same session (WAV, 48.1khz audio). When reviewing the audio waveform

I've had issues with cinelerra' resampler at times, so you may need to use sox to do a better quality version.. Sox isn't all that great either really. I tend to use sndfile-resample (or whatever it's called) which comes with libsamplerate as an example of how to use the library. Yes, it

Hi Nicolas I use keyframes and the compositor window to create a vertical scrolling (end credits) from a still picture. However, the scrolling speed isn't constant. I assume that's due to the fact that interpolations between keyframes are made with a bezier curve. You are correct; the bezier

Hi Piotr 1) the material is not going through a lossy intermediate format. DV is good but it's still lossy. Avoiding it results in a better overall result - less artifacting, lower bitrate for the same quality. Hm, that doesn't sound good. So I can't save my DV clips without
