<p>Sad news,</p>
<p>I haven't used cinGG for a while, yet from my early experiences
with cv version, this happened to me once with cv and since i was
saving every single change just after doing it and having a back
up, on a seperate hard disque, every five minutes of theses
changes so I can move back and forth if needed and that even with
Libreoffice. SInce, I didn't lost data. All I had to do was then
take the option upload the back-up (charger la sauvegarde, in
french) try it may be you got something there.</p>
<p>Hell yes, that hurts !</p>
<p>Bon courage :) <br>

<div>Very excited about Cinelerra, today I wanted to make a
silent short video, as an example, to upload to the YouTube
channel.<br>
<br>
I made a very meticulous desktop recording, with the goal that
without saying a word, anyone can understand a simple process,
such as changing the speed to a clip. I know this is as easy
for you as scratching a ear. But for people who start they
need someone to teach them. It is a question that several
readers have asked me.<br>
<br>
As usual, in me, create a new project, and as is also usual
for me when loading the files, I forgot to put the selector in
"Create new resources only" I had it in "Replace current
project" and when loading the 3 clips that I wanted to use for
this video, this they have been loaded on three different
tracks.<br>
<br>
Nothing happens, I pressed z and started again. I have
uploaded the files, selecting the correct option.<br>
<br>
I made the montage when it was almost finished, after
adjusting a clip, Cinelerra has blocked, it did not respond. I
had not saved the job, and I had to close Cinelerra, kill the
application from the system monitor.<br>
<br>
When I reopened Cinelerra I went quickly to file, load backup,
and well, there was my project, more or less as I had it
before the crash.<br>
<br>
So far so good... from here very bad<br>
<br>
I hastened to save in case the lock happened again... and here
comes the catastrophe... when pressing s, no wizard was opened
to save... I was surprised, I did not remember saving... I
look in the timeline window bar and I freeze, this bad joke
had already happened to me the first days in Cinelerra. There
it said "Cinelerra: speedChange-2020-04-20_20.25.34.webm"<br>
<br>
For the second time Cinelerra has converted a video into an
xml file.<br>
<br>
All my work thrown away, my lost time ...<br>
<br>
I have pondered, and I have thought, I am currently
recommending an application that can make a user lose a video
that is important to him. Because of an application that still
carries defects that were very common in the late 90s, but
that are inconceivable in the middle of 2020.<br>
<br>
Then all my illusion has turned into disappointment. I cannot
recommend or spend time with an editor who can make you lose a
video in such an absurd way. It is true that in my case, it
was not an important video. But what if it had been...? I am
not a computer scientist nor are I proficient with Photorec
... I am only an audiovisual technician.<br>
<br>
So after thinking it over and seeing the great risk of working
with Cinelerra, for the moment I take a break. If GG ever
decides to fix this, please let me know, maybe I'll regain the
lost illusion and keep writing tutorials.<br>
<br>
So sorry. I have already deleted myself from the youtube
channel and I am going to send the latest corrections of the
Spanish translation to Phyllis and take a break.<br>
<br>
Thank you very much for your good predisposition and for your
kindness always with me.</div>
