First of all, thanks for your feedback about my little "video try". >>* I think pointing out "Solar" when you use a sun for the backdrop is >>probably unnecessary -- it's actually cooler to let the sun speak for >>itself as our theme. >> >>* The music is licensed as CC BY-NC-SA, which isn't appropriate for >>Fedora. Remixers need to be free to use the material commercially if >>they want. (Besides, I'd look for something where the performance >>doesn't have so many wrong notes and "clams.") I'll correct issues about "titolation" text as soon as possible, and I'll search a song with a correct license ;-) I've had to use Kino because unfortunately It seems to be the only almost-free software for video editing. Other option is Pitivi, but much "base functions" for video editing are not included. >>Well, if we don't allow software from rpmfusion then we are SOL, no >>videos beyond screen captures made with Istanbul or recorded from >>webcam with Cheese. To the actual situation the most advanced ready-to-use software is Kino, but I know the main branch of Kino is no longer developed (only bug fixes, last main version was released on March 12th, 2007). >> Kino uses certain codecs so can't be included in Fedora. It is >> usually installed from the just-launched repository that sould not be >> named :p Kino contains some "link" to proprietary codecs, apart these links I think that Kino could be considered a completely opensource software. The last problem: it's improbable to find video-files in a "native" free format. Much devices records data in a proprietary format, then is necessary a tool from an external repository that uses proprietary codec for converting the video in a free format. The question is: it's acceptable the use of Kino (actually from third-party repository) for video editing in order to produce video files for "Fedora Project"? -- Paolo Leoni ~ http://pleoni.altervista.org GPG fingerprint: DAD1 6419 D42B 0B1C D9E1 A9CB 4587 4812 17F7 F764 _______________________________________________ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
