and applied the 'Grandma's Fix', "Using the Graphical User Interface - WinFF", and then followed the instructions given there to convert the mpg file - ie, used "Cinelerra intermediate formats" and "Select DNxHD as Preset". When I do that I get the following error message:

Sorry about that. I didn't realise that the graphic would not be accepted here.

However, the error message can be seen here:

720x576 DNxHD won't work, that's right. DNxHD is a very constrained codec. It only accepts two resolutions: 1280x720 and 1920x1080, and only combined
with a fixed set of framerates and bitrates.

Beware!  I think there is a typo error or two in this table:

Many thanks for this, but at the moment the figures are of little meaning to me; they are simply numbers :-( . No doubt I will eventually understand them :-) .

However, I have resolved - temporarily only I hope because of the time involved! - my problem for this particular file. I imported it into Kino and then let Kino convert it to a *.dv file which Cinelerra happily accepted. I have now just finished editing and rendering this file (a film which is 2hrs 45mins long) and am about to put it thru DeVeDe to create a DVD.

Kino took forEVER to import the mpg file and it took a loooong time to export it - how long it actually took to do so I don't know because darn Kino doesn't show a progress timer, it's a bit primitive in this respect.

Now I need to find out what Kino uses to import the file and then to export it and then apply the same convertion 'scripts' to other similar files thus by-passing Kino.
