There are new binaries for the latest version of cinelerra gg at: https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/ as well as the releasenotes.pdf. The release notes contain the known bug and workaround. The manual is currently undergoing major reorganization by Andrea so in order to avoid interference is not being modified until this effort is complete. 2 of the lesser used distros information: Gentoo did not build but Tumbleweed did. Text version of release notes is below. *Cinelerra-GG (Version Infinity) Release Notes for 08/01/2020-08/31/2020 for builds* *Special thanks to Andrew, Andrea, Houku, IgorBeg, and RafaMar for testing* this month, especially of the speed fixes and Auto Bumps as Phyllis was unable to do so. *Release contains a known bug with a workaround.* Clear Keyframes in some cases does not delete the right keyframes. The verified workaround is to turn on/off "keyframes follow edits” when this error could surface. It will be fixed as soon as possible and will be correct in next month’s release. 1. *Bump float Autos* feature has been added which provides a good solution for adding speed to a selection, like an edit, as well as some nice useful applications to the camera, projector, etc. Temporary document/explanation is at: https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/testing/bump_autos.pdf . A new “Create Keyframes”option for a selection area under the Keyframes pulldown was added. 2. Upgraded operating system distros on the build computers. 3. *Changed behavior:* Shortcut for Undo is “z” as originally + *Ctrl-z* so that new users are less confused. Because Ctrl-z was already in use with the middle mouse button on a track for “Cut Pack”, that was changed to Ctrl-Alt-z (video - Top 8 open source video editor – by Nice Micro). Shortcut for Save is “s” as originally + *Ctrl-s* so that new users are less confused. Because Ctrl-s was already in use under the Settings pulldown for Save settings now, that was changed to Ctrl- Shift-S (forum - Ideas for UI Modifications (Improvements?) - note by Tupper). 4. *Usability Improvements:* *Language preference* is now available in the pulldown Settings→Preferences, Appearance tab on the left hand side to make it easy to have CinGG always start in the user’s preferred language (BT #113 by MatN and Gerd via mailing list). Note that the only current choices are the ones that I am quite sure are actually being used. You can still set the environment variable LANGUAGE for other translations like Slovenia, Chinese, Portuguese, etc and if requested, we will add another possible translation in but they have not been updated in a long time and are only done via an automatic translator with no personal corrections done. Ydiff was upgraded to work for rgb/yuv and 16 bit depth. This was done in order to better analyze the problem in the forum of “Loss of detail” by dejay. *Prores format* for rendering was modified to use a default of “profile=3” for High Quality instead of the original “profile=2”. I will take longer to render and produce a larger file but the quality difference is certainly better with a ydiff difference of only 1.7 versus 7.7. This is again in reference to the forum “Loss of detail” by dejay. *Default settings for new configuration* setup in $HOME/.bcast5 have been changed. This does not affect any currently existing setups. Changes include default Load Mode, Click to Activate/Deactivate Focus, and Clear Toggles (Sam suggestion to align with user expectations) now is 0) and Size (was 24 and now 48). More video is of bigger width and height and it was difficult to even see the smaller characters the first time (suggestion from Andrea). Time-reference metadata value that showed up in Audio examples has been added as necessary for “Align Timecodes” (Katacuts supplied examples). Updated es.po Spanish (thanks to RafaMar as he has faithfully been providing for months now). A new feature is *drag speed highlight*s; it is quite useful because it shows you the change that the speed up/down will make to the timeline while moving and then drops it there when you let up on the mouse. *Multiple edit selection* capability has been added. 5. *Bugs/Issues Fixed:* Auto-Rotate for ffmpeg video was not working with hardware vaapi/vdpau devices. Had to rework ffmpeg a/v filter setup and hw decode with vid filters (notified by Ig0r in the forum). Speed Auto edit cuts resulted in incorrect results. This has been fixed as far as we have been able to test. A note about usage is: “ When working with edits and the speed auto, if you make a "cut" in a section, the speed curve values should not change over the remaining playable edits. It is possible to easily add "disjoint" curve points at the boundaries of the edit to preserve the curve shape (houku BT #477). Paste automation tweaks; undo fixes and tweaks for undo commit logic. Normalize speed follows (for example plugins/labels) enhancement. Update shortcuts to reflect changes and make some corrections. A fix was added to the video code interface with ffmpeg in order to make F_minterpolate functional. Although it will now work single-threaded, it is slow and does not seek so using the command line may be a much better way to go (IgorBeg suggestion). Anyway as a result there are now an additional 7 more usable ffmpeg plugins available (Andrea went through the set to find these). Bug fix for get_auto_at_position equivalence test.
