Forum and MantisBT (@Sam)

These days I tried to create a new thread on the forum and also a ticket on MantisBT that do not appear. It could be a problem with my Firefox (but I haven't changed it in a long time), or a problem with my account or other things I don't understand has arisen. It's not important and there's no hurry, but can you tell me something about it?

Very slow opening of one specific mp4 file
by Andrew Randrianasulu 09 Aug '19

09 Aug '19

Hello, all! My friend recorded video tutorial for me (in Win7), and I successfully watched it with mplayer. But attempt at editing this file with Cin-GG (from July 1 2019 + ffmpeg git) resulted in Cin process eating a lot of CPU and only showing and playing first minute or so. I wonder if this behavior artifact of my hacking, or 'normal' version of Cinelerra-GG also shows such behavior?

July monthly builds available now
by Phyllis Smith 02 Aug '19

02 Aug '19

The July 31 builds are now available. I am happy to report that MantisBT issue #2 for masking is finally DONE! If you have any problems with it, please just open a new ticket. It looks like the probability of ever finishing 277 issues is zero. Debian 10 package is now available since it was officially released July 7th (did not get Olivier's recommended build fixes in yet though). MantisBT issue #237 is still being worked on Compositor background color / canvas color. Release notes included below as well as at: https://www.cinelerra-gg.org/download/releasenotes.pdf --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cinelerra-GG (Version Infinity) Release Notes for 07/01/2019-07/31/2019 for builds *Special Thanks* this month (of course, the usual thanks to all involved!): Andrea/Andrey are converting the manual to Latex and the long Plugins chapter is now complete. Pierre has updated the French wikipedia for Cinelerra-GG at: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinelerra IgorB has created all of the numerous Masking icon pngs/svgs for each of the themes. Sam has updated and improved the website even more – pretty much doing this on an ongoing basis. MatN has researched/tested the potential viability of using flatpak or appimage packages for distributing Cinelerra-GG to other Linux or Windows distros. See BT #261 for details. 1. Prof2, a *Profiler* that shows where a program is using up time has been checked into GIT. It can be used to determine if Cinelerra or other programs are using too much cpu in any routine. 2. *Upgraded ffmpeg* from 4.1 to 4.1.4. 3. *Masking improvements* are now complete and temporarily documented at: https://www.cinelerra-gg.org/download/Mask_changes.pdf There are now 6 more buttons in the Mask Points section for Point, Curve, or All of Linear or Smooth to automatically smooth or un-smooth parts of the mask which saves some tedious work. Cloning and Preset Shapes are now available. You can Load, Save, or Delete Preset shapes such as a Circle, Oval, Square, or Triangle and Save/Load/Delete your own on any video track. Center and Normalize buttons have been added to “center” a mask and “normalize” the size based on the scale of the video track. The Enable buttons can now be used to enable/disable particular masks so that they are not subject to any All or Gang functions. This is in effect for Feather, Fade, Translate, Scale, and Rotate. Masking rotate and scale, because they used the wheel, were not included in the keyframe generation but now that has been fixed. Updated shortcuts.html to include mask editing key equivalences from the Help information. Addition of X/Y scaling in 1 direction so that now you have scaling in both directions (default) simultaneously as well as just scaling in the X direction or the Y direction. This also applies tp Translate so that you can move a small distance in one direction without impacting the other. Now when you enable only Boundary you can see the boundaries of all present masks at that point without having to put a gradient behind it to see. You can move a mask precisely through use of the textbox in Mask Point section or the tumblers. 4. *Usability Improvements* An additional Settings→Preferences, Interface tab of “Timeline Rectify Audio” provides a choice to use this format to have the waveform cut on the zero line, making it easier to note silent areas. Spanning Keyframes now has its own toggle so that selections will no longer automatically change. An alternative shortcut for Ctrl-m drag/drop editing is the Backspace key. Added Compositor background color choice via Settings→Preferences, Appearance (in work still). 5. *Bugs/Issues Fixed* An OpenGL fix for make_shader segment count is now in. Thanks to reports from DeJay/Andrea. A mod has been made to the colorpicker that affects the Title, Gradient, and Sketcher plugins to hopefully avoid strange hesitancy behavior. Fixed tooltip for “Use HW Device” in Settings, the Performance tab. Increased data box size for modes in the Descratch plugin. Switched to using the default theme text color instead of white for Show Overlays, Hard Edges icon. FFmpeg filters, loudnorm and dynanorm, had invalid setup so were removed from usage. In the Viewer, the audio waveform disappeared when playing but this is now fixed. Fixed outer color setup for yuv in the gradient plugin In the Sketcher plugin, a fix was added for last_xy update in the sketcher grab_event.

Website & Server Improvements
by Sam 31 Jul '19

31 Jul '19

Hi guys. Some maintenance work was done on the server last night to improve load times and performance. The download speed for downloading builds and packages has been drastically increased. In addition, the website is mirrored via Cloudflare to provide faster access worldwide. This shortens the distance from the user to the website as far as static content is concerned. For a short time the changes can lead to slight interference. If problems should be observed in the long run, please report to me. Have fun with Cinelerra GG. Sam --

Addition of Cinelerra-GG to the French Wikipedia page
by Pierre autourduglobe 30 Jul '19

30 Jul '19

I have added information about Cinelerra-GG to Wikipedia's French-language Cinelerra page. Unfortunately I am not familiar with Wikipedia's procedures and my attempt to create a new information box by copying Cinelerra-HV's as a model did not give good results... If someone masters these procedures under Wikipedia, a small adjustment of the imperfect work I did might be useful... https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinelerra Pierre

Variable bitrate file processing problems
by preobraz＠gmail.com 30 Jul '19

Hi all! Opened a video file with a variable bitrate - it turned out not very well. Advise what to do to handle such files in the program? I do not want pre-encoding. Video https://yadi.sk/i/pHpGWq4f00yVLA Image https://yadi.sk/i/K9fEyyNnBzT-zQ -- Ugin.

Someone who has a Nvidia not too old, can you tell me if Cuda brings benefits in CinGG? I have to choose a GPU and I'm still undecided. Thanks.

This appeared among the daily updates of Arch Linux: aom-v1.0.0-errata1. More news is in: https://aomedia.googlesource.com/aom/+/refs/tags/v1.0.0-errata1 Looks like they've disabled multithreading. Is it important for CinGG?
