add Frame on PiP on manual
by Andrea paz 17 Jan '23

17 Jan '23

I have added a new section to the Real-World appendix of the manual. It consists of adding a frame to a Picture in Picture and is based on a post in our forum. I enclose the latex file with image and also the text in odt for those who would like to review it. See if it is OK for you. Link to the files: https://ufile.io/zfshf1ct

Dual-screen support was working in cinCV at least
by Andrew Randrianasulu 10 Jan '23

10 Jan '23

Managed to get qemu (v7.2.0-334-g959b27f577-dirty) running with two virtual displays qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -m 2000 -cpu qemu64 -device virtio-vga,max_outputs=2 -device virtio-vga -cdrom /home/admin/CDROM-4.14.246-big-7.iso -smp 2 -device usb-mouse -M q35 -usb then in running system I run xconf (script configuring X from old Slax 6) and then startx bring me two displays. first i send xterm to second display by using DISPLAY=":0.1" from there I launchd cinelerra I typed :0.0 in CinCV's output config tab, and on next startup Compositor was on original first display..

Interesting confusion on X screens vs displays
by Andrew Randrianasulu 08 Jan '23

08 Jan '23

I tried to test multi-monitor support by firing another, nested X server Xephyr :1 -screen 1024x768 then Cin displays her windows on either DISPLAY :0 or :1 depend on preferences but I can\t set compositor to just one ...xserver. I looked into code :) in cwindowgui.C CWindowGUI::CWindowGUI(MWindow *mwindow, CWindow *cwindow) : BC_Window(_(PROGRAM_NAME ": Compositor"), mwindow->session->cwindow_x, mwindow->session->cwindow_y, mwindow->session->cwindow_w, mwindow->session->cwindow_h, xS(100), yS(100), 1, 1, 1, BC_WindowBase::get_resources()->bg_color, mwindow->get_cwindow_display()) in mwindow.C char *MWindow::get_cwindow_display() { char *x11_host = screens < 2 || session->window_config == 0 ? session->a_x11_host : session->b_x11_host; return *x11_host ? x11_host : 0; } and screens set in void MWindow::init_preferences() { preferences = new Preferences; preferences->load_defaults(defaults); File::setenv_path("LV2_PATH",preferences->lv2_path, 1); session = new MainSession(this); session->load_defaults(defaults); // set x11_host, screens, window_config screens = session->set_default_x11_host(); so into mainsession.C // set default x11 host, window_config, return screens int MainSession::set_default_x11_host(int win_config) { if( win_config < 0 ) win_config = window_config; const char *x11_host = win_config!=1 ? a_x11_host : b_x11_host; BC_DisplayInfo display_info(x11_host,0); int screen = display_info.get_screen(); if( screen < 0 && strcmp(a_x11_host, b_x11_host) ) { win_config = win_config==1 ? 0 : 1; x11_host = win_config!=1 ? a_x11_host : b_x11_host; display_info.init_window(x11_host,0); screen = display_info.get_screen(); } if( screen < 0 ) { x11_host = ""; display_info.init_window(x11_host,1); } int screens = 1; if( display_info.get_screen_count() > 1 ) screens = strcmp(a_x11_host, b_x11_host) != 0 ? 2 : 1; window_config = win_config; BC_Window::set_default_x11_host(x11_host); return screens; } and display_info lives in guicast/bcdisplayinfo.C and h in our case in h file int get_screen() { return scrnum; } and scrnum set to scrnum = DefaultScreen(display); in void BC_DisplayInfo::init_window(const char *display_name, int show_error) so, it seems having two 'x11 hosts" as separate X servers to send Compositor to actually not supported... ? we query number of screens on specific display/host ... so :0.0 and :0.1 works, while :1.0 and :0.0 not ? also, 3 or more displays will not work?

at zoomed-in scale the audio timelines randomly drops/shifts the level bars in short bursts. Will attempt to add PNG file that shows this behaviour.

Not all blu-ray disk are the same ...
by Andrew Randrianasulu 06 Jan '23

06 Jan '23

https://superuser.com/questions/879216/how-to-determine-whether-blu-ray-dis… lists two methods one with cdrecord + internet, another one using imgburn === Here's the best way I've found: 1. Determine the manufacturer code and media type of the media. On Linux, I used cdrecord <http://cdrtools.sourceforge.net/private/cdrecord.html> dev=XXX -atip | grep -i 'manufacturer\|media type', where XXX is the code for the Blu-ray burner as listed by cdrecord -scanbus. 2. Look up the manufacturer and media type codes at http://www.blu-raydisc.info/licensee-list/discmanuid-licenseelist.php . The table on that site identifies "recording type" (i.e. HTL or LTH) and also write speed from these codes. === quote end==== site worked when I clicked on link. Apparently LTH should be marked due to their bad compatibility with earlier drives, but .... reality is less stellar :( and in imgburn ==== With image burning software. ImgBurn <http://www.imgburn.com/> for instance. In Imgburn main menu just click on anything writing related. For example, "Write image file to disc" Now a new window pops up Please check that you have the correct burner selected in the left hand side, if you have more than one disc burner. Scroll down on the right pane, and you find the info under "Recorded Mark Polarity" ==== HTL is apparently more durable.... Terje posted link to Canadian site and I did little search on my own https://www.pcworld.com/article/423607/hard-core-data-preservation-the-best… (from 2016) to be honest I newer heard about HTL vs LTH when it comes to BDs.... I found some ASUS drive in my city, so *may be* I'll have some means to test real disks in new year.

commit from cin-CV explaining some copyright
by Andrew Randrianasulu 06 Jan '23

==== commit 740d7ccc3bc952c689d9d09aa9d2e7f50d7b4a22 Author: Johannes Sixt <j6t(a)kdbg.org> Date: Thu Oct 8 21:54:48 2009 +0200 Insert license blurb with copyright at the top of source files. The majority of files carry only Adam William's copyright, regardless of whether other people contributed code. The following file are exceptions; they receive the copyright of the person who initially added the file: Andraz Tori cinelerra/exportedl.C cinelerra/exportedl.h cinelerra/exportedl.inc cinelerra/manualgoto.C cinelerra/manualgoto.h cinelerra/manualgoto.inc cinelerra/renderprofiles.C cinelerra/renderprofiles.h cinelerra/renderprofiles.inc Hermann Vosseler plugins/reroute/picon_png.h plugins/reroute/reroute.C Nathan Kurz cinelerra/fileyuv.C cinelerra/fileyuv.h cinelerra/pipe.C cinelerra/pipe.h cinelerra/yuvstream.C cinelerra/yuvstream.h guicast/bcrecentlist.C guicast/bcrecentlist.h Pierre Dumuid cinelerra/labeledit.C cinelerra/labeledit.h cinelerra/labeledit.inc guicast/bcpixmapsw.C guicast/bcpixmapsw.h guicast/bcpixmapsw.inc guicast/bcrelocatablewidget.C guicast/bcrelocatablewidget.h guicast/bcrelocatablewidget.inc guicast/bcwidgetgrid.C guicast/bcwidgetgrid.h guicast/bcwidgetgrid.inc Richard Baverstock cinelerra/filedv.C cinelerra/filedv.h This brings the file contents closer to Adam's Cinelerra 4. lines 7 ===== I currently read whole cinCV changelog and make local branches like this: git checkout -b r1053 c27217d5d014500aa5105222a5dbcb24b80ff30f git checkout master git checkout -b r980 e4a838b79f3de7ab7a64bd5c41d1f9dd90c29364 git checkout master and so on ... makes navigating to specific point in time easier.

Ffmpeg loader in cincv in 2010
by Andrew Randrianasulu 06 Jan '23

06 Jan '23

Oh, memory! I remember I was reading those lines but completely forgot where! ========= https://crazedmuleproductions.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html?m=0 Friday, July 16, 2010 Green Beret parachutes in to help Cinelerra Unbelievably, just in the past week, the Cinelerra CV community (http://cvs.cinelerra.org/) has had a heavyweight developer parachute in and start fixing stuff all over the place. The guy is Chris "Monty" Montgomery who developed the Ogg multimedia container and Vorbis audio formats (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Montgomery) He is a developer currently working for Red Hat. Monty, You're The Man! His primary effort has been to yank out the kludgy and incompatible file loader in Cinelerra and replace it using good old FFmpeg. FFmpeg has problems of its own, but a helluva lot less problems than the Cinelerra loader. This is a task that the original developer of Cinelerra, Heroine Warrior (http://www.heroinewarrior.com/) has wisely done with the 4.1 version of Cinelerra. Much props to Father HV, for without him, this blog and Open Source video editing would be very different, if exist at all. ===== Unfortunately xiph.org migrated their git without user directories, so only patches survived reside in directory archived by archive.org (duh!) https://web.archive.org/web/20150323164307/http://people.xiph.org/~xiphmont… not all patches downloadable, but biggest (18 mb!) first one surely is Note, I am not saying code from this experiment directly entered cingg vi cincv (I mistaken files with same names but different content) yet it shows how three separate parts (one from cincv (ffmpeg wrapper class from 2004!)), another from hv (Adam's 2008 experiment) and work by Monty in 2010) formed something users can test!

website link to download overview lead to german page

well, shouldn't it only do this in DE version of site? "Is Cinelerra GG Infinity also available for other operating systems? Cinelerra GG Infinity is available for GNU/Linux and FreeBSD. Due to the lack of professional video editing applications for Linux, Cinelerra was developed for Linux. Cinelerra GG therefore serves as a replacement and for this reason there is no Windows or Mac version. We support up to nine different distributions. Click here to go to the download overview page. " where here leads to https://www.cinelerra-gg.org/de/herunterladen/ real link https://www.cinelerra-gg.org/de/?page_id=3803 as far as my Firefox tell me ...
