Vulkan prores decoding in ffmpeg.git
by Andrew Randrianasulu 01 Dec '25

01 Dec '25

Test file (1.7 Gb, 30 seconds 4k, 60 fps, bt709): https://web.archive.org/web/20250727093440/https://terra-1-g.djicdn.com/851… ffmpeg git commit commit 7043522fe07b4678de59e01f987de8f2f46d40a2 configure line: guest@slax:/dev/shm/ffmpeg$ ./ffmpeg ffmpeg version N-120778-g7043522fe0 Copyright (c) 2000-2025 the FFmpeg developers built with gcc 11.2.0 (GCC) configuration: --enable-opencl --disable-debug --enable-libx265 --enable-libx264 --enable-gpl --enable-libplacebo --enable-vulkan --enable-libshaderc --enable-libzimg --enable-libaom --enable-libdav1d --enable-libsoxr --enable-libfontconfig --enable-libfreetype --enable-libfribidi --enable-gnutls --enable-libass --enable-libbluray --enable-libcdio --enable-frei0r --enable-libgsm --enable-openal --enable-libopus --enable-librtmp --enable-libsnappy --enable-libspeex --enable-libssh --enable-libtheora --enable-libtwolame --enable-libv4l2 --enable-libvidstab --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvpx --enable-libwebp libavutil 60. 19.101 / 60. 19.101 libavcodec 62. 21.100 / 62. 21.100 libavformat 62. 6.103 / 62. 6.103 libavdevice 62. 2.100 / 62. 2.100 libavfilter 11. 10.101 / 11. 10.101 libswscale 9. 3.100 / 9. 3.100 libswresample 6. 2.100 / 6. 2.100 Universal media converter usage: ffmpeg [options] [[infile options] -i infile]... {[outfile options] outfile}... Use -h to get full help or, even better, run 'man ffmpeg' ==== So, it works with ./ffplay -hwaccel vulkan file and it also works (at 30 fps) ./ffmpeg -hwaccel vulkan -i file -f null /dev/null without -hwaccel it decodes at 10-12 fps (32-bit AMD FX 4300) and full cpu load. (there is much smaller cpu load for Vulcan decoding case). full page with bigger samples: https://web.archive.org/web/20250920123334/https://www.dji.com/inspire-3/sa… found via Kodi user forum. May not work in Russia without using archive.org (I tried and it errored for me first).

FFmpeg 8.0 in CinGG
by Andrea paz 01 Dec '25

01 Dec '25

I see that ffmpeg 8.0 has three new filters: Color Detect, Pad_Cuda, and Scale_d3d11. In CinGG, I only see the first one, Color Detect, which provides information on the “Jpeg/Mpeg” range and whether the alpha channel is ‘premultiplied’ or “straight.” It doesn't give me any errors, but I don't know where to see the information it provides. FFmpeg 8.0 also has other good news: decoders for the APV mezzanine codec (very interesting!) and for ProRes RAW. Improved VVC support (this would be h266, the successor to h265). Then encoding/decoding via Vulkan of FFV1 and ProRes Raw (for this only decoding). Still decoding Vulkan VP9, Vaapi VVC; ProRes and VC-2. I don't know if Vulkan AV1; ProRes and VC-2 encoding is already supported or coming soon. I don't know enough about other new features (G.728; Whip, etc.).

Cin-GG Downloads
by Terje J. Hanssen 28 Nov '25

28 Nov '25

Hi I don't know what the plans are, but I would suggest to update and enable the Cin-GG's Download menu entries and launch icons? As now, using the Download > Packages or Builds > Appimage or Packages, cause No Results Found https://cinelerra-gg.org/downloads/ Previously I noted and used these urls directly AppImage https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/images/?C=M;O=D Testing https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/testing/ Builds https://github.com/einhander/cin-gg-packages/releases Now only the latter Andrey's builds are working.

CinGG GIT checkin on new server for FFmpeg version 8.0
by Phyllis Smith 27 Nov '25

27 Nov '25

The new Cinelerra-GG server GIT repository is fully functional now and I have checked in updates for FFmpeg 8.0. It is now at https://git.cinelerra-gg.org/goodguy/cinelerra.git so the following read-only git is: git clone https://git.cinelerra-gg.org/goodguy/cinelerra.git *Note for Andrey*: hoping you will continue updating/creating the cin-gg-packages/releases In addition, I am planning on keeping the github.com/phylsmith/Cinelerra_GG repository updated at the same time for those people who wander through Github (smiley face). But if I ever figure out the ownership/password for the cinelerra-gg github repository, I will probably switch to that.

Based on Georgy's email ( https://www.mail-archive.com/cin@lists.cinelerra-gg.org/msg09216.html) and his further explanations, I would like to propose an addition to the manual regarding an important aspect of CinGG's operation. I am attaching a document and link to an image (https://i.postimg.cc/KjD1SXZS/AV-sync.png) If you can improve, correct, and add information, we can then consider modifying the manual.

Cin-GG Mailmann 3 - Service Restored - Email Delivery Issue Fixed
by Sam 27 Nov '25

27 Nov '25

Hi guys, We experienced a temporary email delivery issue that may have affected some of you over the past day. What happened: Due to a DMARC policy conflict, emails from certain domains (like comcast.net) were being rejected by major email providers (Gmail, Yahoo, Yandex). This caused some of your subscriptions to be temporarily disabled. What we fixed: - Enabled DMARC mitigation on the mailing list - Configured DKIM email signing for lists.cinelerra-gg.org - Re-enabled all affected subscriptions (17 members) What you need to do: Nothing! Your subscription is active again, and you should receive all future emails without issues. If you notice any problems receiving emails from the list, please contact me. Thank you for your patience. Cheers, Sam

Git question
by Andrea paz 23 Nov '25

23 Nov '25

Sorry for the basic question, but how do I update git with the new URL for the LaTeX manual? I read that I have to do the following: git remote set-url origin https:/ git.cinelerra-gg.org/goodguy/cin-manual-latex.git I'm afraid of messing things up before I even try. Can you confirm this for me? Do I also have to do “git push -u origin master” since I don't use git push?
