[Cin] I wonder if old bug 967 still with us?

[Phyllis Smith]

To the best of my ability, I think this bug does not exist in Cinelerra-GG
Infinity.
I tested playback and frame by frame spot compared most of the following:

scene5fps-720x576 to scene5fps-640x480
scene8fps-720x576 to scene8fps-375x300
scene10fps-720x576 to scene10fps-375x300
scene12fps-720x576 to scene12fps-640x480
scene30fps-720x576 to scene530ps-640x480

I saw neither "after the last frame the last-but-one frame is added and
played back"
OR "When playing back frame by frame a blank frame is added and played back"

They all played back the correct number of frames in each case in viewing
in the compositor and checking the frame count on the main window bottom
line.

Is there some other combination I should check?  I found it very rewarding
to see the CinGG Message popup when I loaded the XML demo file and it said
"Warning XML from cinelerra version 2.1.5CV.  Session date may be
incompatible."  AND IT WAS JUST FINE !! except the animated tree with
falling leaves was pretty cartoonish!
