Thanks, Rafael. Considering the successful outcome of your simpler patch (which
doesn't disable v4l), I pushed an update of cinelerra in the PPA for Ubuntu
Natty. I'd appreciate if any interested user could test the new binaries and
let me know of any issue.
Thanks again,
Nicola

I tested it and cinelerra opens and seems to work as always.
But I don't have a iOmega Buzz hardware to test the support for it..
Best regards,
Rafael Diniz
Have you tested the patch? It looks it will fail because it doesn't remove
support for iOmega Buzz (that my patch did).

For those in ubuntu 11.04, or any newer distribution with kernel =
2.6.38,
please do:
# apt-get install libv4l-dev
And apply the attached patch.
I'm not linking cinelerra with libv4l1, so you should LD_PRELOAD it in
order to use V4L in kernel = 2.6.38.
If you're using an older kernel, V4L support should keep working as
before.
Best regards,
Rafael Diniz
V4L1 is the deprecated and now removed from kernel programming
interface
to access video/image devices.
BUT the V4L1 interface can be supported via the libv4l version 0.8.3
onwards, as it that can do this conversion between the old API for the
new
(V4L2) API.
I think that we should link cinelerra against libv4l1 if libv4l is
present, otherwise, do not compile V4L support.
Have you tried swaping linux/videodev.h by libv4l1-videodev.h?
; )
Best regards,
Rafael Diniz
By V4L do you mean the possibility to record from /dev/video_n ?
In my case that would be a disaster I am using it to scan film frames
from
a 1394 camera.

Hello,
today i updated my kernel to 2.6.39 and was able to compile cinelerra
after
applying Nicola's patch from bugs.cinelerra.org to j6t's repo.
In my opinion we should support recent kernels rather soon.
So i wonder whether we have to keep v4l1 and buzz supported or
whether
removing support therefore (what Nicola's patch does) is fine, too.
Personally speaking i would vote for the second choice as we have
extremely
limited resources for maintenance.
However, if (and only if) this hardware should be still in use by
Cinelerra
users (please speak up if that's the case for you!) we should
consider
adding an option to configure.
Regardless wheter we want to make support optional or remove it
completely,
i suggest to release a new version of cinelerra (2.1.6?) supporting
linux
kernels =2.6.39 as soon as possible.
What is you opinion on that?
Regards,
Simeon
