Fun things to try are some of the new FFmpeg 4.4 plugins such as
F_shufflepixels, F_colorize, F_exposure, and F_Kirsch.

*******************  Release Notes excerpts ******************
*GIT for Cinelerra-GG has the following changes from 08/01/2021-08/31/2021*

A forum post by *fary54* concerning an upgrade of the Debian O/S from 10 to
11 and a new install of
Ardour on 11 has uncovered a crash problem that could affect other
operating system upgrades and
application installs. Basically your setting of LV2_PATH in
$HOME/.bcast5/Cinelerra_rc may have to
be edited to revert to the default of $CIN_DAT/lv2. Find more information
in the Manual.

*Andrew R Contributions:*
A fix is now in so that when using In/Out pointers on an empty
track/location, “attach effect” correctly
  adds the plugin.
FFmpeg has been upgraded from 4.3 to 4.4 since Andrew provided the
necessary patch revisions and
   location of the tgz file. It includes some new audio/video plugin
filters:
   chromanr, afreqshift, aphaseshift, adenorm, asupercut, asubcut,
asuperpass, asuperstop,
   shufflepixels, tmidequalizer, estdif, epx, shear, kirsch,
colortemperature, colorcontrast, colorcorrect,
   colorize, aexciter, exposure, monochrome .
FAST_SPEED and SLOW_SPEED variables can be added to
$HOME/.bcast5/Cinelerra_rc if you want
  to change the default Fast Forward speed to be different from the default
of double speed and Slow
  Forward speed to be different from the default of ½ speed. Editing this
file can be destructive.
A new choice of EXR Sequence is now available for Background Rendering File
Format in Settings,
  Preferences, Performance tab.
For libvpx, the build now disables building unit-tests and examples, thus
saving quite a lot of disk
  space and some compile time.
Another minor code change that should have no user impact is the addition
of “const” for AVCodec.

*Andrea Paz Contributions:*
Testing of variations of multibit, the updated ffmpeg 4.4 version, anything
newly checked into GIT.
Updated expanders.txt and plugin.opts to represent new plugin filters in
ffmpeg 4.4 and info updates.
Manual updates as needed to include the new Speed PerCent plugin.

*Anonymous Contributions:*
Speed PerCent video plugin contribution is self-explanatory in usage. This
plugin will be easier for
  new users to locate in the Resources window and to use than ReframeRT
upon which it is based.
A Freelancer created the necessary CinGG fix for ffmpeg 4.4 where the last
few frames were being
  dropped when rendering. Bluray media test and tests by Andrea found this
error that was preventing
 the upgrade from being feasible earlier.
