New releases and manual updates are now available at the usual places: https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/images/CinGG-20210831-x86_64.AppImage https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/images/CinGG-20210831-x86_64-older_distro… https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/images/CinGG-20210831-multibit.AppImage https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/images/CinGG-20210831-i386.AppImage https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/CinelerraGG_Manual.pdf https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/CinelerraGG_Manual/ https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/releasenotes.pdf 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.

Fossies - software archive
by Andrew Randrianasulu 28 Aug '21

28 Aug '21

I wonder if we should add CinelerraGG into it? so far only Cinelerra 7.3 actually there (but it provides some autogenerated software documentation?) https://fossies.org/search/linux/misc?q=folder_search&ml=25&q1=cinelerra&q2… https://fossies.org/dox/cinelerra-7.3-src/adeviceprefs_8C.html for example.. might be useful for more real (experienced) programmers? ps: not sure if 7.3 can be called Community edition now?

Wayland
by Andrea paz 22 Aug '21

I'm trying wayland and CinGG opens a warning window when I load a project; see image. Everything works fine and there are no messages at the terminal, but I was wondering if it does it to you too.

Test rendering whit x265
by Andrea paz 17 Aug '21

17 Aug '21

I did some tests with the new and old x265. I report some data, while the terminal output is attached in test-x265.txt. I used a 5 min video in h264 4.2.0 but good quality. Size= 471 MB. x265-10bit: CPU 50-80% (multithread) 27.5 fps file size 46 MB x265-12bit: CPU 50-80% (multi) 25.5 fps file size 45 MB x265-Hi: CPU 80-90% (multi) 10.6 fps file size 1.7 GB x265-Lo(w): CPU 40-70% (single/multi) 34 fps file size 67.5 MB HEVC-vaapi CPU 0-50% (single) 85.8 fps file size 117 MB (I could not see the GPU engagement) Only in x265-lo do I perceive a small decay in quality compared to the original. All others are comparable. For me a great news (thanks Andrew!) is the exploitation of multithread; on the terminal you can read the sentence: "Thread pool created using 16 threads" I have a CPU 8c/16t. The only thing I regret is that the new x265 drivers introduce a CinGG build delay of 15 min. Before my entire compile was 5 min, now it's 20 min.

variable fast/slow playback speed hack
by Andrew Randrianasulu 11 Aug '21

11 Aug '21

so i wondered if changing speed for fast/slow reverse and normal playback was possible.. after few hours of hacking I made this patch. it makes fast/slow playback speed configurable in Cinelerra_rc via new stored variables: ===j LOADPREVIOUS16 /data/data/com.termux/files/home/LibRaw/RAW_CANON_G1.CRW LOADPREVIOUS17 /data/data/com.termux/files/home/av1-cpu5-crf10.mkv SLOW_SPEED 5.000000e-01 FAST_SPEED 4.000000e+00 here I set fast playback speed to 4x, while slow_playback default remain at 0.5 .... no gui yet because I am still unsure about gui elements but I had idea about putting two input boxes in Preferences for this.. but I can be wrong with my hacking....

Fwd: in/out point selected plugin attach fix?
by Phyllis Smith 11 Aug '21

11 Aug '21

For some reason, my reply only went to Andrew so am forwarding it correctly. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Phyllis Smith <phylsmith2017(a)gmail.com> Date: Sun, Aug 8, 2021 at 7:52 PM Subject: Re: in/out point selected plugin attach fix? To: Andrew Randrianasulu <randrianasulu(a)gmail.com> Andrew, forgot to respond to the following: again, I wonder why it was noted by Phyllis "but making it a Preference is > not > a good idea.". Just because our Preferences a bit crowded already? > In the past, we have gotten into trouble when the Preferences window got bigger on some smaller monitors. A goal has always been to have Cinelerra continue to work on lesser hardware (which is one of the reasons proxy exists). What was happening is that the Preferences menu on a small monitor was cut off at the bottom and so there was no way for the user to click OK, Apply, or Cancel ! so the user was stuck. There is a minimum size for this window and adding more Preferences in the Appearance tab causes problems if it does not fit while still "looking good". So at this time it is very important to save room in Preferences for the really necessary things.
