Hi Tomas,

I was actually thinking of writing a perl wrapper script that would take a mildly structured text list of statements to make melt extremely convenient. Since I just found out about mlt a few days ago I haven't given it much thought as to what that text list would be formatted like. I would be most interested in seeing an example of what you would like. If it works seems intuitive for my small brain, then I could use that syntax. Obviously a perl wrapper script is not ideal, but if a text user interface were developed that was really great there's no particular reason we couldn't convert it to a proper C/C++ application which linked to mlt just like kdenlive does or whatever. > You could try the nix package manager which has the latest melt and > building is completely automatic, including all dependencies: e.g. > > Thank you very much for this tip! I am trying it out. I had to remove --nonet from one of the .mk files to get it to build (lots of people have to says google) but then it built. Now I told it to -i mlt and it looks like it's going to create a brave new world for me, looks like it's getting a new bash, a new binutils, gcc, findutils, lots of things, so I'll have to give it some time and see who my computer is when I come back! It's not gonna convert my slackware to nixos is it? :D Thanks, Jesse ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Mlt-devel mailing list Mlt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mlt-devel
