I hope that someone will be kind enough to address these questions:

  1. Is there a build of Cinelerra that runs "correctly" on Fedora 10?
  2. If the answer to 1 is no, is there a Linux distribution for which
     there is a build of Cinelerra that does run correctly?

I have not found a working Cinelerra build on Fedora since release 0.14.20080214.fc8 from Freshrpms which is on Fedora 8. That build crashes on Fedora 9.

Cinelerra for Fedora 9 was broken right after I installed Fedora 9 (I was late to the party.), so I immediately went to Fedora 10 when it released.

I have tried:
cinelerra.i386 2.1-16_git20081116.fc10 atrpms cinelerra-cv.i386 2.1-21.git20081103.fc10 kwizart

Neither of these builds render a YUV4MPEG Stream to anything that plays back more than a green screen.

I admit that I may have something configured wrong, but I have been successfully using Cinelerra on Fedora 8, and I am using the same project files that work on Fedora 8.

I have been hoping for a release of Cinelerra from RPMFusion. Matthias has always done a good job in the past. Sadly, I don't even see Cinelerra on RPMFusion or Freshrpms anymore.

I guess I could attempt to build Cinelerra myself, but I am not a good C/C++ programmer, and if those at atrpms and kwizart are not getting it right yet and Matthias has apparently given up, I doubt my odds of getting it right are good.

I am now left with staying on Fedora 8 which is at end of life or moving to a new distribution. I have been using Fedora since Core 4, so that is not something I would do lightly. Comfort level and all that, but we do what we must.

Regards,
John
