I have just managed to get Cinelerra installed and it looks great and is obviously so full of goodies I'll take ages to work it all out. But in trying a short test edit I ran into a big problem that I can't solve.

I loaded a video filmed on my digital camera. It is a .AVI file
38646940 bytes long (about 38 megs and 50 seconds of video). All I did was chop a little bit off the end and 'render' it, once more to an AVI file.

The output was well over a gigabyte long, and the normal linux noatun program played it back in false colours.

So I suppose I have two related questions:

1) How do I get the file out in something like the same compression as it went in? and

2) How do I get a file that ordinary play software understands properly?

Just love the software, so I'm hoping someone can put me straight with these questions. And apologies if they've already been asked a million times!


Ron.
