I've been told it is a sign of insanity to reply to oneself, but to set
the record straight, the problem on KDE 4.2.0 was caused by a problem
between KDE desktop effects, which I had enabled, and the ati graphics
driver. After I disabled the KDE desktop effects, Cinelerra-cv ran fine.
There is still a problem in rendering using YUV4MPEG.

Sean,
Thanks. I went to try this but Cinelerra-cv locked up the IO to the
video card and the keyboard but not the mouse. The KDE version updated
from 4.1.4 to 4.2.0 and there is now some basic incompatibility with KDE.
I switched to Gnome to give Cinelerra-cv a try in that and was able to
render using "MPEG video."
So I can get back to editing now as long as some incompatibility does
not arise between Cinelerra-cv and Gnome.
Did I mention I really prefer KDE over Gnome? :-( Oh well. There are
perils and benefits to open source, free software. Sometimes the
benefits outweigh the perils and sometime it is the other way around.
I do appreciate all the hard work that goes in to a project like
Cinelerra. It is just very frustrating to go from a usable application
to one that is unusable when something "upgrades." OS, graphics driver,
desktop, or Cinelerra itself.
Regards,
John
