Hi, I already tried downloading and using the appimage on the cin-gg website, when I launch it I see a splash screen pop up for a second before it exits with a failure, the same thing happened with the appimage you linked. I attached the log for this under the file "appimg.log"

The same thing happened when I tried to get the appimage from the AUR.

The error message I included in my last email was from my attempting to launch the version of cin that I installed using pacman using the instructions outlined here. I has assumed it would be the latest version, but upon further inspection it seems to be the 2020 version (cin-5.1-20201031).

Ive also tried compiling the appimage from source using the AUR but it would always result in an error due to missing some CUDA helper headers that I had to track down to install. The log file for which is attached under the file "comp1.log"
 
After getting the first set of headers installed, when I tried to compile again I was hit with a second set of missing headers. Contained under "comp2.log"
As I have been unable to locate and install the second set of headers, I am finally reaching out for help.

Thank you for your time,

I am just "guessing" that you downloaded the year 2020 Arch version of Cinelerra ( https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/tars/cinelerra-5.1-arch-20201031.x86_64.txz) and that would explain the error message you get. If that is the case, please download the AppImage instead at:
Put it in the directory of your choice and be sure it has execute permission (chmod +x CinGG-20241231-x86_64.AppImage). Then just start it from a window by keying in its filename, as: ./CinGG-20241231-x86_64.AppImage

Andrea Paz builds on Arch all of the time with no problems. He usually keeps his Arch O/S updated all of the time too so it should run. However, he did report recently that an older AppImage did not start for him.

Hello! Ive been trying to launch cin on my new arch device, I downloaded it following the instructions provided on the website and installed it through pacman, but when I try to launch it, I get the error:
cin: error while loading shared libraries: libIlmImf-2_5.so.25: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

None of the "solutions" I have found have been able to help, I was wondering if you would be able to assist me, or point me in the direction of someone who can.

Thank you for your time,
