From a technical point of view, a .flv file is a compressed one, that means
less infos about the file itself, which is the reason why professional editing
tools normally DO NOT support that kind of file, since quality is obviously
compromised.
Then a professional video tool uses an internal decoder/encoder which "could" coincide
with the system "video player", but it's a not a rule, so you cannot aspect to have any
of your video played by your system as well as edited with cinelerra.
As solucion you can both encode your .flv video to suite cinelerra or try with
a simpler editor, as openshot for example, which is gstreamer based as
totem-gstreamer, so you'll have at the same time a video file played by your
system and edited by your editing tool.

flv files with h264 video and aac audio can losslessly be converted to mov or
mp4.
I do this with my gmerlin transcoder (http://gmerlin.sourceforge.net).
Something like
ffmpeg -acodec copy -vcodec copy ...
might work as well.

Hi,
I must be missing something.
I've installed cinelerra and I've tried to import a video file by selecting "load
files" from the File menu.
Isn't that the correct way to import a video file and use it as a video clip?
I tried to import a flv file which is encoded with the h264 codec, and which I
can play without any issue in any video player (e.g. Gnome MPlayer or VLC or
Movie Player), so I definitely have all the needed codecs installed on the
system.
Cinelerra says it "can't determine the format, assuming PCM" (which it
obviously isn't) and asks me to select audio format parameters (such as sampling rates,
number of bits etc),
It obviously doesn't import the audio correctly and doesn't import the video at
all.
The question is, is there something I'm doing wrong, or doesn't really
Cinelerra support this kind of video file?
I would expect it to be able to import ANY file that my system is capable of
playing. Isn't it?
thanks
m.
