• The knobs of plugins such as Motion: the needle sat off centre and turned strangely with the theme images. Needle, blue arc and the drag angle now take the centre of the knob.
 Knobs working well, now.
  • The reset button that every effect has in its header in the Effect Inspector (the circular arrow) works now. It sets the effect back to the plugin's factory defaults at the current keyframe, as one undo step. If an effect cannot be reset, the footer says so.
 "reset" button (in inspector) working well too.
  • QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland always gave X11: that is on purpose while an X11 display is there, the variable for Cinelerra is CIN_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland. The log now says so. Easier still: see the new setting below.
 With the environment variable CIN_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland, everything works fine, as does the switch in “preferences.”
  • h264_vaapi crash (Assertion pic->nb_dpb_pics < 16): the AppImage uses ffmpeg 7.1, and that assertion is in line 62 of hw_base_encode.c only from ffmpeg 8 on. Which build did you use, and what does ffmpeg -version say?
CinGG classic: I was using an old AppImage (from 2026-12-02); with CinGG-20260831-x86_64.AppImage, I'm getting the error shown in the attachment. However, I'm convinced it's due to my graphics card (AMD RX5700XT), not CinGG-classic. 
  • The fontconfig warnings of the anylinux AppImage: could you send the exact lines?
 I'm attaching the AppImage warnings for older distros; the same errors appear in the last two AppImages (“anylinux” from October 25 and October 27, 2026). The build and AppImage for newer distros do not contain these warnings.

Thank you, Sam.
