Revival of batchrender xml patch
by Phyllis Smith 28 Apr '26

Starting a new thread for a subject in the middle of recent email titled "Failed to compile" on Apr 21, 2016 where Andrea wrote: > Do you have any patches you'd like me yo try out, from the ones you've > created recently? > Andrew responded: > I think I do not have new patches, only old and again controversial > patch for batchrender batch file ? > > Right now if you point batch render function from command line to > non-xml file Cin will chew first, fail later.

Colors questions
by Andrea paz 28 Apr '26

28 Apr '26

Two questions about colors: 1- Regardless of the color space used for the sources, and regardless of the operations we perform on the timeline, do we always see only an sRGB signal on the monitor? Even if the monitor is set to a different color space? I mentioned this in the manual where I had gathered various comments from GG and others, but I can no longer find the sources. Can we see from the code how the signal sent to the monitor works? 2- In the rendering window, is it possible to use any options to set a color space (e.g., BT.709 or DCI-P3) of our choice? For example, can we use the zscale or libplacebo parameters?

Noticed it was missing from system installs. Now picking syslib in BlendAlgebra opens folder with preinstalled programs.

Failed to compile
by Andrea paz 26 Apr '26

26 Apr '26

I tried compiling CinGG from Git without using any patches. I wasn't able to do it; I'm not sure if it's because of libaom or something else. Here's a link to the log. Maybe I need to use some patches? I haven't been able to keep up with the latest developments, so I'm pretty confused about what to do. https://limewire.com/d/qteft#dqNRnvN80N

Brief maintenance window today + new forum coming soon
by Sam 25 Apr '26

25 Apr '26

Hi everyone, just a quick heads-up: the Cinelerra-GG server will be briefly offline today for maintenance work. We expect the downtime to be short. We're also happy to share that we're working on a new forum for the Cinelerra-GG community, which we plan to launch soon. It will replace the current WordPress-based forum with a modern, dedicated forum platform — more on that shortly. Sorry for any inconvenience and thanks for your patience! Cheers Sam

> Right now if you point batch render function from command line to > non-xml file Cin will chew first, fail later. I added check hopefully > preventing this from happening at least on non-xml files (you can > still shoot your xml file with this gun) I'm not sure if I understand what to do. I'm getting these results: Without the patch: ./cin -r prova_1.rc [plain text, no xml file] [...] ** rendered 0 frames in 0.000 secs, 0.000 fps Session time: 0:00:00 Cpu time: user: 0:00:00.118 sys: 0:00:00.043 ./cin -r expanders.txt [plain text, no xml file] [...] ** rendered 0 frames in 0.000 secs, 0.000 fps Session time: 0:00:00 Cpu time: user: 0:00:00.111 sys: 0:00:00.034 With the patch: ./cin -r expanders.txt [...] Not XML file!

compiling on freeBSD 14.0 still works
by Andrew Randrianasulu 16 Apr '26

16 Apr '26

But I think new pkgsrc (newer than nov 2023) might introduce some errors ? There is link to freeBSD bugzilla with my patches for freeBSD's pkgsrc from Nov 2023 https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=275374 I think they need some updating because address from where fetch sources changed, not to mention we updated our codebase a bit since that time (even if for non-thirdparty build this means little) NetBSD also works and I pushed update to their own version of pkgsrc-wip If anyone uses or just plays with those two BSDs they can test current git too (BSD use separate versioning for base set like kernel/utilites/compiler/X and user packages from pkgsrc - so base can be 14.0 but userspace vary wildly)

respin of libaom build options patch to use NASM
by Andrew Randrianasulu 14 Apr '26

14 Apr '26

I tested it on ubuntu 16.04 + updated nasm and it seems to build fine (with libaom 3.8.0) Dear Phyllis, can you test it again? I hope it will work in other cases too (this is supported option, after all), and you (and anyone else) will able to build cingg on old Ubuntu out of the box.

by Andrew Randrianasulu 14 Apr '26

14 Apr '26

LOR user asked for this. I briefly tested it by running "./blds/bld_prepare.sh termux" on aarch64 termux but because all important packages were already installed it did nothing but printed them all.
