Python target troubles are indeed common around major python version upgrades, which we've had quite a few of lately. In your case, I would try running a depclean, dev-python/pytest-runner does not seem to be in the tree at all, so complaining about not finding a newer version satisfying the wanted python targets makes sense there. Removing outdated packages is almost always helpful in these instances. Regards, Arve

The "project" structure and paradigm always seems to be WAY too complex for what I want to do and does nothing for me other than get in the way. 4. About 30% of the features/commands don't work at all, another 30% don't work they way the documentation says they do, and the rest have been renamed and moved to a different menu/panel/mode since the documentation was written. 5. All of the ones I've ever tried crashed frequently. They crash when adding a source, when adding or changing an edit, transitions, or effect. They crash when exporting/rendering. Melt is the only one I've ever been able to actually accomplish something useful with. The really nice thing is that you can write a bash (or other) program to automate stuff. If all you want to do is concatenate a directory full of video clips with some intro, outro, and transitions, you can write a script that does that and then run it on as many different directories or lists of files as you want. You don't have to set up a new project and start from scratch every time. I never had Kdenlive to crash. I just couldn't figure out how to make it work. As you say, most docs are out of date or for old versions. I've seen that with Kicad too. I kind of dread upgrading to Kicad 6. I actually masked it here until the bugs get worked out and the docs catch up. Maybe one day either the docs will catch up or they will make it easy to figure out. Maybe. ;-) Dale :-) :-) Gotta reply here - kdelive crashes at the drop of a hat with the files I am using - very frustrating.

Wow, sorry, didn't realize this was such a sore issue. Especially considering we've already discussed several command line programs in this thread. To export: 1. press the red circular "export video" button (or go to File => Export Project => Export Video); 2a.

I know a .ts is some sort of a container, with streams and whatnot, but I don't have a clue what's in it. Why should I? All I know is I want to end up with EXACTLY the same sort of file I started with, and this seems exactly what most video editors don't have a clue how to do!

I dont use Ktorrent, While what you are describing sounds like a memory leak, have you considered it could be the active downloads connecting to a large number of peers? Or it could be it building a very large dht index (not sure what the proper terminology for this is) You should double check your settings and make sure everything has sane limits On Mon, Dec 20, 2021 at 11:07 PM Dale wrote: > Howdy all, > > I been using Ktorrent for several months now.

I considered mentioning it, but its a bit much for what the OP needed, Avidemux is much simpler and faster. I have used openshot for creating a video from multiple sources and found it good for that. I had to add "media-video/openshot **" to package.accept_keywords. -- Neil Bothwick The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten per cent of its capacity ... the rest is overhead for the operating system. pgpaGy3cyycGP.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature

I've not seen anyone mention OpenShot. It is in portage, but masked for some reason. As someone else mentioned, you do have to create a project and then export. Really, though, the "create project, make export choices" is only like an extra minute or two of your time. I usually don't even save the project for just some simple trimming. Alternatively, there are sites that do video editing. I like veed.io just because it can add and then translate subtitles (which I need for my job), but I'm sure there are many others. -- Chris Spackman (he / him) ch...@osugisakae.com ESOL CoordinatorThe Graham Family of Schools ESL EducatorColumbus State Community College Japan Exchange and Teaching Program Wajima, Ishikawa 1995-1998 Linux user since 1998 Linux User #137532
