There must be some kind of interference when you try to email the large file.  Did you actually send from your Gmail account or your teknikk account.? When I try to send a large file from my gmail account, it says it is too big and automatically uploads it to the google drive and gives me a link.  I just sent you one now so you can see and delete it.

My old teknikk account is expired. I use Thunderbird as email client IMAP connected to my gmail account.
For one or another reason the connection has been horrible slow since yesterday. But now I have sent you a filelink I hope you receive.


I try first to send it without the manual, in case issues to get it included. I've experienced issues before with file attachments larger than ca. 30 MB, either it is due to the sender or receiver side, I don't know.


So I need to know from where and how to copy these html files?
Just download the tgz file and tar xvf to wherever you have bin/doc so it can be copied to AppDir/usr in bld_appimage.sh.

Yes, I copied all manual files to bin/doc, and repeat the steps as follows, to get verified if something is wrong:

cp HTML_Manual-20241031/CinelerraGG_Manual/** /home/cinelerra/cinelerra-5.1/bin/doc

so now the total in AppDir/usr/bin/doc is 1007 elements, 80.3 MB

Ran bld_appimage.sh again and now have CinGG-20241120-x86_64.AppImage 166.5 MB
(which still is smaller than the previous CinGG-20241031-x86_64.AppImage 178.8 MB)

While Manual Help works for the latter, it doesn't load for the new AppImage:

~/Applications> ./CinGG-20241120-x86_64.AppImage

Alt+h

Cannot open /tmp/.mount_CinGG-24Mpo2/usr/bin/doc/CinelerraGG_Manual/Contents.html: No such file or directory at /home/terje/.bcast5/ContextManual.pl line 205.

Is this a known issue and possibly how to solve it?


may be you should move in folder named CinelerraGG_Manual and not its content?



I thought Manual Help should work before I send the complete AppImage.




Oh, there it is. Actually I had stored a 2023 version on my system, but now tried to "download" the HTML manual from here, and it only displayed in Firefox :)

Can the bld_appimage.sh take the wanted file name as argument, or is it just fine to rename it afterwards?
It is just fine to name it afterwards; that is what I do when renaming for the website to include the date.
opening index.html and "cinelerra.html" is "Secrets of Cinelerra", Version 4.1 by Adam Williams
We always want to have these files with the source to recognize Cinelerra's origin and continuance.

And not to forget: it is thanks to Andrew's patchwork and time consuming guiding that has made this possible !
Yes, that goes without saying, but I should have said it anyway.

It was merely intended for possibly others coming to and read this later :)
