Zeke, well we will always "brag" about it ! Yes, it has hardware acceleration using vaapi or vdpau for rendering. The Manual ( https://www.cinelerra-gg.org under Documentation) goes into detail but a test case from probably 2 years ago as quoted there shown below: Results of a particular test case performed on a Intel, 4-core computer, with Broadwell Graphics using an mp4 input video/audio file with dimensions of 1440x1080/29.97 fps is shown next (note, filename is tutorial.mp4). This may very well be a best case scenario! But clearly, at least on this computer with only 4 cores, the hardware acceleration seems to be quite advantageous. A comparison of the 2 output files using ydiff as described in the Appendix (C.1) shows no obvious defects. *CPU usage* *Render Time* *File Size* *File* none 388% 100 secs 36,862,542 h264.mp4 vaapi 150% 19 secs 74,522,736 h264_vaapi.mp4 On Wed, Sep 8, 2021 at 11:53 AM Zeke Williams via Cin < [email protected]> wrote:
Is it true that cinelerra-gg is more powerful than kdenlive or openshot? The fact this program advertises as having hardware acceleration caught my attention. Something other libre video editors have no such feature. -- Cin mailing list [email protected] https://lists.cinelerra-gg.org/mailman/listinfo/cin
