In my opinion, one possible source of BR problems is when we use CinGG as normal users, but the default BR folder is in /tmp and thus requires root privileges. Perhaps it would be better if CinGG created a default folder in .../cinelerra5/cinelerra-5.1/. My other request: is it possible to create a button that deletes all BG image files from inside CinGG? Maybe near the input window for the path of such files. In fact, I believe that even the permanence of files of one format are problematic when you want to change formats. This is not an important request because when you use a format you continue to use that format; however, it can prevent possible crashes.

or may be in .bcast5/brender_dir/ ?

While after/during dog walk I recall there is renderfarm + background render feature, so may be having some commonly-accessible place (for all users) still might be good idea.? Anyway, path itself easy to change (even in code if you want) in cinelerra/preferences.C // Default brender asset <------>brender_asset = new Asset; <------>brender_asset->audio_data = 0; <------>brender_asset->video_data = 1; <------>sprintf(brender_asset->path, "/tmp/brender"); <------>brender_asset->format = FILE_JPEG_LIST; <------>brender_asset->jpeg_quality = 80; but default socket patch also lives there, I redefined it for termux, but for generic unix/Linux distro .... may be somewhere in /var ? Not sure if having two places to control for permissions better than one .....

Yeah, I hope to make something like this, just a bit scared about accidently deleting too much (like, if I just put rm -rf there and user pointed brender dir at their $home ....). I hope to reuse idea/code from deleting indexes.
