Mailing List
by Andrea paz 19 Nov '25

19 Nov '25

I usually read the mailing list starting from the archive so that I always have all the monthly threads at a glance. It seems to me that since it was reopened, the archive does not show the most recent messages, continuing to show only the first three emails sent. Am I doing something wrong? Is the archive updated only monthly or at other intervals? The mailing list works, because I always see all emails as soon as they arrive in my email client. I am only referring to how the archive works. It is not even important, because I imagine I am the only one who views the mailing list from the archive; I am simply curious. The archive address I use is the following (it may not be the correct one): https://lists.cinelerra-gg.org/archives/list/[email protected]/

Hi all, it seems that the AppImage DL page link is broken, do you know where to find it? https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/images/ Thx, Bests, Camille.

AppImage build log?

Rob, the AppImages are created on computers with different graphics cards/capabilities then what a user may have and therefore you will not get the same nvenc/CUDA speedups unless you built the binary yourself. There seems to be no way to create an AppImage that accomodates all of the variations.

Compositing two layers with transparency and chroma key
by Stefan de Konink 17 Nov '25

17 Nov '25

I want to achieve the following animation: - Track 1: the CGI animation, it has transparency and a chroma layer - Track 2: Video the animation runs over - Track 3: the CGI animation transitions to Track 1 + 2 = the default operation, this works when stacking the animation on top of the video. But *without rendering twice*, how am I able to mask out the chroma key in the animation, so track 3 becomes visible under it? -- Stefan

AppImage build log?
by Rob Prowel 17 Nov '25

17 Nov '25

Does the AppImage image contain active and working CUDA/nvenc or is it just a fallback to CPU encoding? My testing seems to indicate the latter, as I'm seeing zero difference in encoding times between libx264 and nvenc. My ffmpeg transcoding scripts always show about a 1/6th encoding time when using nvenc.

Clodflare-backed services only works with some providers in Russia?
by Andrew Randrianasulu 13 Nov '25

13 Nov '25

Georgy noticed he can't clone from new Cineleraa-gg git server. Even switching to https not resulted in working copy. (it worked for me after I switched from git to https) I am not sure what can be done at server end, if cloudflare's whole network blocked here on our end ..May be teach github to sync automatically? https://faun.pub/github-sync-31dede07c606 may be something from this article? ==== Step 4: The Actual Sync The actual sync is easy enough — rebase and push to both remotes: # .github/actions/sync-branches/action.yml - name: Sync Branches shell: bash run: | for branch in ${{ inputs.branches }}; do echo "Syncing $branch..." # Start from local branch git checkout -B $branch origin/$branch # Rebase changes from mirror git pull mirror-ssh $branch --rebase # Push to both repos git push primary-ssh $branch git push mirror-ssh $branch echo "✓ $branch synced" done [...] Native Git Mirroring git clone --mirror source.git git push --mirror destination.git ==== end of quotation === Configuring side (ssh keys etc) look a bit intimidating for one line script kiddie like me :/

Documenting steps to create new AppImages (just in case needed)
by Phyllis Smith 12 Nov '25

12 Nov '25

What I have been doing to create new AppImage releases for Cinelerra-GG (basically these are what I call Moderator tasks). Neither difficult nor time-consuming. - as provided or updated, commit any changes to GIT source and GIT manual on server - update msg/txt to describe more noteworthy items in the release and checkin - create a new PDF and HTML manual version so it has the current date - update the Release Notes in Office Writer and create PDF file to put on website - build new binaries of CinGG for a) most used generic x86_64 with libsvtav1 and opencv built on fedora 32 b) ubuntu 16.04 for older x86_64 with libaom 3.4 instead of 3.8 c) same for ubuntu 16.04 with alternative shortcuts d) debian 11 32-bit for newer i386 with libsvtav1 e) debian 9.1 32-bit for older i386 (requires special export ac_cv_header... and FFMPEG_EXTRA_CFG...) - copy all of the HTML manual files to the newly built bin/doc/CinelerraGG_Manual for Help inclusion - create AppImages using linuxdeploy from the binaries - make tgz files of the CinGG source and HTML Manual files to put on the website - 10 files are moved to /tmp on the server via firehoze, or scp, or rsync (firehoze was needed in the past to get multiple network streams as numerous packages for all of the various distros and distro versions were moved over but that has been replaced by the generic AppImages). On the server, copy files from /tmp to final location which involves some tar extracts, deletions, and replacing files. - set tags on GIT for both the source and manual to note a new release version update - update News in WordPress on website and notify Mailing list of release
