Hello Kurt

The final frame rate is 18 fps (super8).
I eventually got it to work properly, Coriander is sending a serie of pictures on /dev/video0
Cinelerra is listening on /dev/video1
In record preference you define the final frame rate, and during record DO NOT use the 'fill frames' option.
Eventually cinelerra drops a sequence of Tiff files.
Stop recording, uncheck "monitor video" and click on the Ok button to paste the lot into your cinelerra video track.
Works beautifully. I can now make some color correction and export in HD H264 in half the time I needed before.
I just need a blue ray burner now :-)
Next step is to try openEXR.

Cheers
E

E, that sounds interesting.
I must admit i have no experience with coriander or vloopback.
However, I would think you need an idea of what frame rate
 you want to play back your end product?

Hi there
I am trying to interface 2 soft using vloopback. One being Cinelerra and
the other Coriander (DCAM firewire).
With my DCam I use format 7, meaning that I shoot a frame of my video
everytime an external event triggers the cam.
So of course the frame rate is more or less random.
In fact it happens at roughly 7to 8 fps. A bit like an automatic
stop-motion video only faster.

Coriander sents the frames to /dev/video0 and with with vloopback I get
the frames via /dev/video1 under cinelerra.

All works fine. However ... :-)
To record under cinelerra a frame rate is needed. If I use, let's say
25, I end up with much more frames than I am supposed to get a bit like
if cinelerra is readind /dev/video1 at the rate of 25 fps where
coriander is changing the frames at 7~8 fps. And that may well be the
case...

Now there is an option timed/untimed but can't get the "timed" option to
get anything.

So ... is there a chance I can configure something to synchronize the both
? Thanks a lot
E
