Lock position of any source contents within track
by Stefan de Konink 11 Jan '26

11 Jan '26

Considering the following use case. You have an ISO (multi cam) recording from an Atem device. To redo the switching in post. I know Cinelerra supports the multi cam option. But I am looking for something else. In essence I want to say to the content of these tracks, this is the time code from 0 must never ever move the on the timeline, not accidentally, everything is locked. The only operations that are allowed: - mute - move a split/cut forward backward (but not the movement when it is before the content, I think this happens with middle mouse) I think this time line lock is useful for many editing operations, like you are tweaking any keyframes. It is a different part of editing. -- Stefan

Split clips closing gaps in timeline in Roll edit mode
by info＠bandshed.net 06 Jan '26

06 Jan '26

Hi, I don't do a lot of clip splitting on the timeline but recently I had some footage that I was removing 5 or 6 damaged frames from at a time and when I deleted the damaged frames the clips would shift and close the gap on the timeline. Of course I would expect this in ripple editing but I have my preferences set for "One Edit Roll" does this not prevent the clips from closing together? In the end I used the middle-click menu and pasted 'Mutes' on the selected frames so that got the job done but I thought I'd ask if this was expected split behavior even when not in Ripple editing mode. Thanks, Glen --

patch for ppc64le
by Andrew Randrianasulu 05 Jan '26

05 Jan '26

Installed POWER Arch (Arch for PowerPC processors) on qemu. After 12 hours of compilation got cinelerra binary and unlike my previous attempt it shows all icons when displayed by remote (on host) Xephyr! So please add this patch for further ppc testing. line (qemu 9.0.3): install: qemu-system-ppc64 -cdrom /dev/shm/archpower-current-powerpc64le.iso -hda /dev/shm/5gb_ppc_le.qcow -boot d -nographic -m 1G -cpu POWER8 -accel tcg,tb-size=256 run: qemu-system-ppc64 -hda /dev/shm/5gb_ppc_le.qcow -nographic -m 1G -cpu POWER8 -accel tcg,tb-size=256 Arch POWER github (where I added two know issues already, one in documentation, another in font install) https://github.com/kth5/archpower/issues/

Can we close BT #610?
by Andrew Randrianasulu 03 Jan '26

03 Jan '26

https://bug.cinelerra-gg.org/view.php?id=610 it works for me on two (ppc32) distros, so hopefully fixed (I'll ask other linux/ppc users from 68kmla to test)

libsuil dependency issue with Einhander Debian 13 Cin 20260102 Package
by info＠bandshed.net 02 Jan '26

02 Jan '26

Hello and Happy New Year! First, thanks for all the hard work on the new Cinelerra release and also for quickly incorporating the new H.264 in MKV and MOV request! I am trying to move from the AppImages to the Einhander github packages and on AV Linux 25 (based on Debian 13 Trixie and MX Linux 25) I have a dependency error for libsuil: Solving dependencies... Error! Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: Unsatisfied dependencies: cin : Depends: libsuil-0-0 (>= 1:0.10.22) but 0.10.22-1 is to be installed Error: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. Error: The following information from --solver 3.0 may provide additional context: Unable to satisfy dependencies. Reached two conflicting decisions: 1. cin:amd64=1:5.1.20260102 is selected for install 2. cin:amd64 Depends libsuil-0-0 (>= 1:0.10.22) but none of the choices are installable: [no choices] At a glance it appears to be an epoch naming issue, because the system does have 0.10.22-1 already installed but the package wants "1:0.10.22" which is not in the Debian or MX repos. Just thought I'd mention this in case others on Debian 13 (and derivates) are seeing the same thing.. Best, Glen --

First test: CinGG rpm on openSUSE Tumbleweed-Slowroll
by Terje J. Hanssen 01 Jan '26

Happy new year! After OK installing and testing Einhander Cingg - built: Jan 1 2026 05:00:32 for opensuse15.rpm on Leap 15.6, I tried the corresponding with the new opensusetw.rpm on my openSUSE Tumbleweed-Slowroll Host: localhost.localdomain Kernel: 6.12.63-1.0.4.sr20251204-longterm arch: x86_64 bits: 64 Desktop: GNOME v: 49.2 Distro: openSUSE Tumbleweed-Slowroll 20251204 zypper in https://github.com/einhander/cin-gg-packages/releases/download/20260101/cin… ------ cin Cinelerra Infinity - built: Jan 1 2026 06:00:08 ....... BC_DisplayInfo::gl_fb_config failed build plugin index for: /usr/lib64/cin/plugins build lv2 index for: $CIN_PATH/lv2 I've seen this config failed message earlier, but don't remember if we figured out what the reason was or what fixed it(?) ........... I loaded the same plain hdv.m2t file and tried to Render it to plain h264.mp4 (as successful on Leap 15.6), but got just these message log on tw-slowroll: virtual void Render::handle_close_event(int): Create new file at labels checked, but no labels Any idea what the reason can be?

Website: link to html manual
by Andrea paz 01 Jan '26

01 Jan '26

I wanted to point out that, in the Support --> Documentation section of the website, the “HTML User Manual” link leads to a PDF file rather than HTML. The correct link is: https://download.cinelerra-gg.org/view.php?file=CinelerraGG_Manual/cin-inde… This is just a minor detail, because clicking on “Source code” takes us to a collection of links, including one to the HTML manual.

Cinelerra-gg on Debian 8 ppc
by Andrew Randrianasulu 01 Jan '26

01 Jan '26

https://mastodon.online/@Andrew_R/115820001044715253 I disabled a lot of features (giflib, openexr, x10tv) but it compiled against separately installed into /usr/local ffmpeg 8.0 Gcc 4.9.2 wanted -latomic for ffmpeg build, but after adding this and -ldrm to cinelerra/Makefile it worked! Just fit into 1 Gb of ext4 partition. qemu-system-ppc -M mac99,via=pmu -cpu G4 -hda ~/AndrewR/5gb_ppc_debian8.qcow -cdrom ~/AndrewR/void-live-ppc-20210825.iso -boot d -m 1G -accel tcg,tb-size=512 So, I booted livecd, then chrooted into Debian install. This is running fbdev (no graphical acceleration). I think Debian 8 s libgif 4.1 just too old for our filegif, but I compiled system/static for lesser compilation time and disk requirements.

The AppImage apparently does not work on Ubuntu 24.04.
