Where are Cingg's ffmpeg compression files located?
During render testing to and fro, I have had a suspect that now and then the content of ffmpeg compression type has changed or could not be picked up again. But I have thought it was me that had confused or forgot something. Or may this occur by other reasons? Seemingly this happened recently during render switching between hevc_vaapi,mp4 and hevc_qsv.mp4 . hevc_qsv.mp4 has several more pixel options than hevc_vaapi.mp4 which has only the single "vaapi" option. And in one occasion I got more pixel options for hevc_vaapi.mp4(?) - or was it still on hevc_qsv,mp4? So to find out, I have tried to edit the hevc_vaapi.mp4 file, but have not got the edited content loaded in the video wrench compression window. So I wonder where is the preset file used by Cingg located? I have # ls -l /Cin lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Oct 22 20:23 /Cin -> /home/cinelerra/cinelerra-5.1 and the hevc_vaapi.mp4 preset file with the same content located in both /Cin/bin/ffmpeg/video /Cin/ffmpeg/video But the edited content isn't visible in Cingg?

I think cingg (or OS?) caches things I usually switch to another profile from lisr and back to see my changes.

What is "lisr" ? You are right ;) I tried again now, and it isn't enough to quit and cold start Cingg again. For better or for worse Cingg seemingly remember the last used profile. I had to switch one (or two times) to another profile before the profile content was updated. But why is there two similar locations for profiles and which one is used by Cingg? /Cin/bin/ffmpeg/video /Cin/ffmpeg/video Another thing, though off-topic here: the file menu has many useful shortcuts like Shift-R for rendering, but none for Load recent file ;) .

/Cin/bin/ffmpeg/video /Cin/ffmpeg/video
one in ffmpeg/video is distributed file one in bin/ffmpeg/video installed by make install command. This one actually looked up and loaded (because source part of cinelerra usually not present on user machine)
Another thing, though off-topic here: the file menu has many useful shortcuts like Shift-R for rendering, but none for Load recent file ;)
one of many? there might be whole list of them ... you can run bin/cin mediafile.m2ts directly from console.

Thanks for that tip. However during repeated testing I often use warm Load recent file after finishing one rendering before to the next, without closing Cingg.

no .... appimage is compressed directory, with its own copy of ffmpeg directory. (and it not easy to change those, but you can unpack appimage and edit/run cingg from unpacked directory) rpm installs into /usr so in this case profiles live in /usr/share/cin/ffmpeg/

may be "Load most recent"? Because we load one file, and this probably should be most recent in Recent files submenu ... I'll look into it.

It is fine to popup the Recent files submenu with Shift+o, because seemingly the last used file is on the top of that menu(?)
