Re: Video editing disaster

Why not fedora spin for cinelerra? It would not be great?

One suggestion was Cinelerra.  I tried the GG version 5.1 

and it worked.  However it would play and not stop.  Also,

I rendered to WEBM and the result was purple.  

I loaded handbrake and it wanted me to erase some program

and install a new ffmpeg.  That fixed kdenlive which now works

great on Fedora.  

I hope that the developers of pitivi and OpenShot can fix the 

stability issues.  

Another suggestion was bandshed.  I'll have to check it out:

Right now, I would say video editing is a challenge.

I am trying out multiple video editors on Fedora, with very poor results and a ton of crashes.  

Anyone have recommendations on how to stablize one of these or can you recommend a

video editor that just works (like kdenlive used to when I used it last a year ago)?

I am having the same results on two Fedora 25, 64-bit systems, fully updated.  The packages

are from rpmfusion and on one of the two systems from unitedrpms.  My main system is an 

older 6-core AMD with 8G of RAM so it should handle it.

The files I am testing with are:

  JPG images from a DSLR

  Quicktime from my DSLR (MVI_xxx.MOV), 

  Movie from my Android phone xxxxxxxxx.m2ts

  Movie from a DVD xxx.mpg

  Movie from a digital camcorder (Sony AVCHD):   xxxx.MTS

KDENLIVE:

My goto editor was Kdenlive, but it won't open files.  I keep getting "clip is invalid".

The terminal outputs:

mlt_repository_init: failed to dlopen /usr/lib64/mlt/libmltavformat.so

  (/lib64/libavdevice.so.57: symbol av_buffersink_get_sample_aspect_ratio, version LIBAVFILTER_6 not defined in file libavfilter.so.6 with link time reference)

I think there is a lib miss-match.

PITIVI:  

Pitivi is nice, but I can't keep it running.  Multiple core dumps.

OPENSHOT:

I really love OpenShot.  I tried the one from rpmfusion and it crashed all the time, 

for example when trying transitions.  I also tried the latest version via AppImage:

  OpenShot-v2.3.3-x86_64.AppImage 

This seemed much more stable, but I could still crash it with transitions, adding

an MP3 file for audio, etc.

Anyone have a good, stable video editor or have suggestions on how to run one of these

in a stable platform?

Note, I am filing bug reports on many of these crashes....

Thanks,
