Cinelerra working in XP with andLinux - no soundcard output

[mikeytown2]

I found this freshmeat list. Lots of projects are listed.
http://freshmeat.net/browse/256/

I came across this today
http://www.andlinux.org/
If this gets going (Avisynth virtual file system)
http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=133313

I'm going to guess that one of the freshmeat NLE projects will work in andlinux. I posted a question in their forum, asking about this.
http://www.andlinux.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=68


In short what i'm hinting at is a open source NLE for xp. I'm currently downloading the KDE package

I'll post back if anything works, any help would be appreciated!


EDIT
WOW!!! it works! at least the cinelerra gui...
Short steps i did.

Install andlinux
Restart
Wait for ever
Disable firewall
Run andLinux Console (FLTK)
Wait for linux to boot
start konsole from tray icon (user/pass: root)
copy paste commands into console

echo "deb http://repository.akirad.net akirad-gutsy main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
echo "deb-src http://repository.akirad.net akirad-gutsy main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
wget -q http://repository.akirad.net/dists/akirad.key -O- | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update
apt-get install cinelerra
cinelerra

project list from here
http://project.akirad.net/

to install LiVES (after following the above)
apt-get install lives
lives

Now this sounds kind of cool. Nice find with the andlinux.

Thanks! Cinelerra installed with errors, but it seems to work. Cinelerra, as far as i know, doesn't support any lossless codecs. Other then a slow preview it is usable! The main problem is the intermediary format, going from Avisynth to Cinelerra without any degradation. It reads/write to the NTFS drive. It operates similar to GIMP, multiple windows. I tried LiVES, it didn't work.

I have yet to try sound output, but it does load the sound. H.264/mp4 support seems to be limited, it wouldn't load a video made with the CQ-Lossess preset, and threw lots of errors when loading a video made with HQ-Insane. Loaded a mpeg-2 vid fine.

After looking at this
http://avisynth.org/mediawiki/FAQ_frameserving
I found this
http://akuvian.org/src/avisynth/avs2yuv/
http://www.avidemux.org/admWiki/index.php?title=Avsproxy
Would it be possible to pipe avs into Cinelerra under andLinux?

Cinelerra doesn't like avi's but it does like mov's

After playing around with Cinelerra i'm still looking for a opensource Windows solution; although AviSynth might have spoiled me. I'm not going to attempt to make a avs based NLE, but i think a list of avs functions that mimic parts of a NLE would be nice.
