Hi Jonathan Thomas. Before all sorry my bad english, i'm from Uruguay. I found your software and i tried to install it in Debian. Use for that 8.04 (i836, 32) option. I have some problems of dependencies but i can fix them with some help. Only one problem i can't fix when i try to run i have this error:

Hello.
I made an entry in Kubuntu-es [http://www.kubuntu-es.org/foro/200906/openshot-nuevo-editor-video-no-lineal-marcha ] to do know your project with the intention that the people who know about professional video editing, to become OpenShot testers and give you new ideas.
In the entry I do not recommend installing OpenShot to Linux newbies users, because OpenShot is not packaging in binary and not have an uninstaller yet.
Everything else are good words for your project.
Sorry for my English, I speak Spanish.
Bye!

Fred,
Feel free to post this as a question in launchpad, or file a bug. I bet FFmpeg had some issue during the ./configure and build process. And thus... never fully installed the new version. Just a guess.

2009-07-02T05:08:53.693-05:00

Hi Jonathan,

I used the ffmpeg option 3 and I still have the same error (consumer_avformat.c: video codec libx264 unrecognised - ignoring). The output video has only the sound.
When I type ffmpeg -formats, I have the git version with the libx264 codec.
It's a big mystery !
Another question : are all transitions working well ? For me some display only white during the transition. At least the firs transition is working, the next one not.

Thanks for your cooperation.

Fred

We would to have your help testing!

Our build wizard will always get the newest versions of all the dependencies (like FFmpeg & MLT), as well as OpenShot's source code.

I would recommend using FFmpeg option 3 (which is a question in the Build Wizard). I've only attempted installing OpenShot on Ubuntu, so you might have trouble if you are using Debian. If you have problems installing it, you can post a question in LaunchPad for us (i.e. the Support option at the top of the screen).

Hi Jonathan,
OpenShot looks very promising and I'm glad I found out about it, and look forward to following it's development.

A question:
I would like to help by doing some testing, and am wondering about the install process. I am running debian linux, and have installed ffmpeg from the debian multimedia repository (and possibly other packages that OpenShot uses). Will the installer for OpenShot overwrite the packages I have installed, and will the installed packages database become 'out of sync' in some way? Based on an earlier question I saw, it looks like it is not easy to completely reverse the installation. As a followon question, am I correct in assuming that the installer will update the installation as new development occurs?

Thank you for your efforts and time.

2009-07-01T14:30:35.992-05:00

Fred, if you run the build wizard with FFmpeg option 3 (at the step where you have 3 choices), it will install libx264, and add the ability to encode h.264 video. Enjoy!

2009-07-01T10:58:23.246-05:00

I thought, beta test for the next releases !
I have a remark : is that possible to have a video profile (project type) to record video in the correct codec for BlueDisk Video or AVCHD DVD : H264 1080p/720p L4.1 + AC3 or DTS.
When I try to make a mkv with libx264, i have an error : consumer_avformat.c: video codec libx264 unrecognised - ignoring and when I use mpeg4, tsMuxer say : wrong format.

Thanks,

Fred

Thanks for the comments! We aren't really in beta yet, but feel free to install OpenShot and help us test. We can always use help testing. It's easy to submit questions, bugs, and feature requests via LaunchPad.
