[opensuse] Again, trying to find a suitable video editor.
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I simply can't find a suitable video editor that works. My goal is to extract the interesting parts of a TV recording. Ie, mark the start of the movie, the end, the commercials inside, and dump all that into a single file, perhaps recoding. One limitation is that movies here have two sound tracks, one in Spanish, and the other one in the original language, typically English. I want to keep both, obviously. I don't need any transition or effect, just a simple editor that allows me to remove unwanted sections. I have tried: pitivi - crashes on start LiVES - works for an hour at 100% CPU and can't load the file. dvbcut - says my mpeg file is not a video (and it certainly is!) tragtor - can convert, but not edit. openshot - almost. My video has two sound tracks, and this tool ignores the second track. cinelerra-cv - I can't make head or tails of it. I tell it to load a video file, it does, but then I don't see how to do anything. It doesn't even display the video. I may have to read the manual, but I dislike having to read a manual for a GUI. Still... kdenlive - Well... crashes too often. I can mark the cuts, but it does not display what I'm cutting. And only one sound track. HandBrake - no edit. Avidemux - one sound track only. Kino - abandonware. Lightworks ?? Shotcut - Segmentation fault on start. cer@Telcontar:~/Videos/Fusion/trabajo> shotcut QSqlDatabase: QSQLITE driver not loaded QSqlDatabase: available drivers: QMYSQL QMYSQL3 QSqlQuery::exec: database not open QSqlQuery::exec: database not open Database::Database(QObject*) Failed to get version. QSqlQuery::exec: database not open bool Database::upgradeVersion1() Failed to create thumbnails table. Database version is 0 Segmentation fault cer@Telcontar:~/Videos/Fusion/trabajo> Flowblade ?? I don't understand the tool. May need some reading. At least it runs. I would like something that would produce a command line to ffmpeg in a GUI. Then I could modify further the options. This would be ideal. tragtor works this way, but has no editor. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

I could try on Leap, but I don't expect much difference. Multimedia software typically comes from packman, with some exceptions.

It is...
1-How old is your machine? Intel, or AMD CPU? Shouldn't make a difference, but maybe? Is it one that sports more than one hardware audio "device"?
It is a intel core duo with 4 cores, and 8 GB. Not young, but still powerful. I can convert 4 movies with 4 simultaneous ffmpeg processes in a reasonable time. The HD also imposes a limit on video conversion, and the machine has a minimum of 4.
2-Exactly how are you capturing, and into which file/container type? Those I need to edit AFAICT are raw transport streams, .ts files saved by DVB satellite receivers.
In this case, it is also transport streams, but coming via fibre, generated by kodi with a special plugin that talks with my provider.

3-Could those crashing be victims of Packman build and/or versioning problems that might go away after some time passes and updating?
Dunno. Maybe. Some of those crashes I have seen for months. I was reading a magazine comparison article on video editors for Linux, and the chap said that kdenlive crashed a lot on the distro he was using and had to use another distro where it was stable. I'll post the link later, it is on another machine.
4-Could those crashing be interface type victims? Maybe try them in a different DE session type, XFCE instead of Gnome, LXQT instead of KDE??? Use gtk interface rather than qt, or vice versa?
I'm using XFCE... The last editor I'm testing is flowblade. I told it to convert a clip of 5 minutes, and it has been chugging along for 95 minutes already. I must have done it wrong. I read the manual and didn't understand a thing: plain text manual in html with no figures, no samples. Just a text description valid for people that already know how to use a video editor. :-/ - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

Yes, that one. My link is: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/12/26/linux_video_editors/?page=1 It is working fine here, all four pages. And... flowblade also used only one of the sound tracks and ignored the rest. :-( -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)

A few years ago I used kdenlive with success, but did not need two sound tracks on a machine with 4 cores and 4 GB memory.

No, avidemux only reads one sound track from the mpeg file. It wants a second sound track to be on another different file.

How? The source mpeg file has one video track and two sound tracks. I want all three in the resulting edited file. Kdenlive ignores the second audio track. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

Well, I would have to do it with dd for reliability. No tool I know so far can copy video and audio (two tracks) cutting a region without crashing or manipulating the tracks. I can not tell the recorder to start and stop at points of my choosing. I have to tell it to record certain program, and it chooses the points from the official start and end times of the program. If I stop the recording, it deletes the file.
* I can't verify right now, but I'm reasonably sure ffmpeg can extract all video and audio from ant file
Yes, it can, but it does manipulation of the original so that may you would not see the problems I see.
* I think (only?) mkv can have several audio tracks
No, avi can as well. What is not typical is to include subtitles on avi, but it is on mkv.
When demuxing, all the tracks have the very same lengh (about time, not size, of course), so they can be worked on easily
it may be easier, then, to move them to mp4, for example, before editing to have the smaller file possible, because, of course, you can't edit the tracks separately :-(

No model. Telefonica fibre service. I get a "client", and they do the recording in their servers, not in my house. Later, I can play it with kodi and save the stream (the full stream, not a part of it).

For MTS files: if there are loss, it means the original file is bad. Only ProjectX can demux it, and only on SD files. It's extremely slow. I know of no other program able to do so. PojectX is very picky about setup, and you must absolutely demux before remuxing. I'm sure than the only problem is demuxing, this done, is all the tracks are on sync, kdenlive is easily able to remove any extra. There is no need to export in one container, you can export each track separately. That said, it's much work. Is it worth? and there is nothing better in windows... mpg files can be edited by most application, avidemux insists to index them again and store the index in the same folder as the file. jdd (NB: I just visited Toledo today, wonderful city!!) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I mean that most video codec compress at a loss of data, same as jpeg, mp3, etc. They remove detail from the image so that it compresses more.

Indeed! It is. :-) If you like old cities, try to visit Cuenca (shouth-east of Madrid). Toledo was capital of the empire with Carlos I, an important city several times. Cuenca is very much "provincial", big contrast. "Deep Spain" so to speak. Segovia (north of Madrid) is also interesting. For you, if you go there, stop at "La Granja (de San Idelfonso)", which would only be a village, were it not for having the summer palace of the first Borbons in Spain.

Well, no. It remuxes it. In some cases, remuxing solves the problem. However, it does not alter the actual video and audio streams, it just cuts them at a Keyframe/GOP-boundary.

Try to reproduce your problem with the extracted mkv ;)

The stuff I shortly described again with avidemux2, i.e. cut the crap (select crap block, delete), then save extra audio as external files by selecting each as Main-Track (Audio -> Maintrack), then save as... And then select your main audio-track as Audio->Maintrack and save that together via File->Save. With avidemux3 it works similar, but a) I forgot and b) it's unstable here. In a test, I got a async result, but that very much depends on a lot of factors, starting with the video itself and not ending with the libs your avidemux was compiled with. It's worth a try. And anyway, what avidemux2 is always good for is visually finding timecodes to feed e.g. mkvmerge ;) Or sizes for cropping etc. HTH, -dnh -- If the MPC [Michigan Penal Code] was a person posting to usenet, it would be a troll who conveniently slants word definition to its own purpose. -- Satya -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

It is not hardware, it is my ISP. You get a client, they do the recording in their servers, not my home. Later I can play it on the sitting room TV, or in my computer, using kodi and a third party plugin. This plugin is able to record locally a recording in the cloud. I may search the forum that recommended this plugin and see what they use for edit, but most of them are Windows people. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)

Huh? That worked here out of the box after I allowed 'build' to actually install libxml2 (I first commented out all BuildRequires just for the heck of it) and pkgconfig(libxml-2.0) vs. libxml2-devel should not make a difference here. Can you check / mail me / paste.opensuse.org a config.log of one of those failed builds?
I see your different BuildRequires for that and a few other libs. Why are these needing to be specified differently?
Generally, using 'pkgconfig(foo)' for packages that provide it is much cleaner and will work on any distro that supports 'pkgconfig()'-deps (which should be most by now). So, it won't matter if it's foo4-dev, foo-dev, foo-devel, or whatnot that contains the foo.pc, all provide pkgconfig(foo) and all is well. It's sort of being able to use 'BuildRequires: /usr/bin/foo-config' for a package that has a -config script. And the Requires get sorted out by rpm itself (depending on e.g. 'libmpeg2.so.0()(64bit)'), so generally you should not use those unless you know you need them. Which is why the trick with the dummy libmpeg2 (just headers and dummy libs) works, so even as libmpeg2 is "forbidden" in OBS, we can build gopchop "legally" in OBS. And BTW: the libmpeg2 stuff is in libmpeg2-0 and libmpeg2-devel and mpeg2dec, that latter contains (just) the binaries in /usr/bin/ (plus manpages).

Avidemux does the same if you use "copy" (subject to the limitations of the source material). I have used Avidemux (now or version 3) with no problems. Charles -- "The move was on to 'Free the Lizard'" -- Jim Hamerly and Tom Paquin (Open Sources, 1999 O'Reilly and Associates)

Hi,
I simply can't find a suitable video editor that works.
My goal is to extract the interesting parts of a TV recording. Ie, mark the start of the movie, the end, the commercials inside, and dump all that into a single file, perhaps recoding.
One limitation is that movies here have two sound tracks, one in Spanish, and the other one in the original language, typically English. I want to keep both, obviously.
I don't need any transition or effect, just a simple editor that allows me to remove unwanted sections.

It does not have a "help" menu entry. What do I read? Just resize the "compositor" window and I see redraw artifacts: bad coding.

Well... At this point I consider everything, but this desktop computer is not double boot to Windows, My laptop is, but not powerful enough for video editing all day. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)

http://heroinewarrior.com/cinelerra/cinelerra.html#LOADING-FILES +++----------------- 7.2 LOADING FILES All data that you work with in Cinelerra is acquired either by recording from a device or by loading from disk. This section describes loading. The loading and playing of files is just as you would expect. Just go to file->Load, select a file for loading, and hit ok. Hit the forward play button and it should start playing, regardless of whether a progress bar has popped up. Another way to load files is to pass the filenames as arguments on the command line. This creates new tracks for every file and starts the program with all the arguments loaded. If the file is a still image, the project's attributes are not changed and the first frame of the track becomes the image. If the file has audio, Cinelerra may build an index file for it to speed up drawing. You can edit and play the file while the index file is being built. -----------------++- Well, it does not do what the manual says. It thinks for a while apparently loading the video, but refuses to play it. I guess it does not like the format, but doesn't say anything. No error displayed. No video displayed, no audio displayed, and it does not even play. If I define a new project with one video track and two audio tracks, then load a video, after loading it, resets to 4 empty audio tracks. And of course, the input video file can not be changed, it is what it is. Plays fine in vlc, mplayer, xine... -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)

Can cinelerra work with dual sound track videos? Several good video apps can only work with one language, they discard the other. In Spain, many films are "dual": say, English and Spanish, and of course, I want to keep both tracks. Oh, I see this is an old thread of mine. At the time, cinelerra-cv was available. I posted:

The problem with avidemux is that it does only one sound track. I need two, because movies in Spain come dubbed to Spanish, but usually also contain the original sound track.

From some reads it appears that it is able to cut sections without recoding most of the video, only about the region of the cut if it doesn't happen at th exact place that gets a full image (the rest of the frames contain the differences to the key frame).

Good grief. I started it. I try to open a video file. The dialogue is capable of opening directories, it does not see the videos inside. It wants to open "Flowblade projects", not videos. If I create a new project, it wants me to type settings: Like DV/DVD PAL. This is nonsense: I want to use the exact same settings as the original video has, not recode to a new setting.

Agreed, Felix: cinelerra can handle as many video and audio tracks as you like in its A/B storyboard editor. You can have 10 sound tracks if you like simultaneously with the various tracks fading it/out and playing on top of one another. It is an incredibly powerful editor. You can do just about everything you need very efficiently from the keyboard as all normal functions are mapped in a semi-logical way to the keyboard (in a manner similar to Vim or Emacs -- which also implies a that level of learning to fully master it) That said, the UI is also a point and click mouseable interface as well. If you haven't used it yet, read through a tutorial and learn how clips are handled (your resources) and get a feel for the A/B storyboard editing approach it provides. Give a minimum an hour of learning and by that point you should have made friends with the interface, be able to create your clip resources, know how to lay them out on the storyboard, and know where to look for help to tweak the transitions, fade audio in/out, and the rest of what is under the hood. You simply cannot go wrong with cinerella. You can do StarWars quality video creation with the tool, then it's just a matter of spending another 1/2 hour or so when you are ready to render you video to re-learn all the ffmpeg option, video targets, etc... The only thing I've ever had an issue with is Video and Audio being offset just a fraction of a second so the video looked like an old Godzilla movie. That's not a problem with cineralla, purely operator inexperience, since the audio and video are rendered as separate tracks before they are combined for the final encoded video. (cinelerra has this neat 'bump' feature that lets you adjust the audio sync to fix it) It's involved, but using anything else or cinelerra is like using jot or vim/emacs. There is just no fair comparison. (however, the time to learn jot compared to vim/emacs is a fair analogy...) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

That's one of the main reasons I still keep and love my old Sony 3-ccd video camera that stores uncompressed video on digital tape (mini-dv) (and one that still uses digital-8 same content format, just different tape size). The .dv format provides separate stereo audio tracks along with the video track. Never had to work about demuxing the contents. Just read the clips in, and they automatically separate into separate video and audio tracks. (it takes 31 MB/s for storage, but not a problem on Terabyte drives) When I started video editing 80 GB drives were huge (and 5400 rpm slow...), but they worked. I'll have to look at kdenlive next time I put the arch drive in my box. That may be one area where FW5 outdoes KDE3, it will be the first check-mark in the FW5 column :) -- David C.

Yes. Many developers, being from the USA, simply do not understand the problem. I think kdenlive failed on this a year ago. And besides the two language audio tracks, there are the subtitles tracks, which can also be two. I have a video with about a dozen language tracks, both audio and subtitles.
Most are not even able to load the two audio tracks of the original file. One have to first demux image/audio1/audio2, load them in the editor, export them separately and build after that a mkv file

Indeed. I'm having to store the videos whole, commercials et all, and just hit the fast-forward on playback.

Where cinelerra shines is it provides a great interface for both video and audio that is almost identical to Audacity for sound (as far as the multiple track layout, etc..) Avidemux has no timeline or multitrack layout. The cli interface can do it, it just doesn't look like the gui can. From their Quickstart: Avidemux is a simple tool for simple video processing tasks. The keyword here is simple: it does not offer tools like a timeline, multitrack editing, you cannot freely move or splice audio and video clips from various sources. So it may be the desktop interface that's missing, the cli looks very capable. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

I know that- I never claim that Avidemux is a full blown video editor. However, Avidemux shines in simple cutting, applying some filters (such as resizing, which I do often) and conversion.

Where cinelerra shines is it provides a great interface for both video and audio that is almost identical to Audacity for sound (as far as the multiple track layout, etc..) Avidemux has no timeline or multitrack layout. The cli interface can do it, it just doesn't look like the gui can.
From their Quickstart:
Avidemux is a simple tool for simple video processing tasks. The keyword here is simple: it does not offer tools like a timeline, multitrack editing, you cannot freely move or splice audio and video clips from various sources.
I do not need any of that. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)

What do you mean. With Avidemux 2.62.0 from packman, it clearly allows me to enable up to 4 tracks.

Unless it has been improved, last time I tried it did not. Let's try again. Loading... takes minutes to index the video. Says: H.264 detected. If the file is using B-frames as reference it can lead to a crash of stuttering. Avidemux can use another mode which is safe but YOU WILL LOSE FRAME ACCURACY Do you want to use that mode? What can I do but use safe mode? Now it says: Multiple audio tracks. The file you just loaded contains several audio tracks. Go to Audio->Main Track to select the active one. Ok. Nothing new there. I do, that, then "select second audio track". I see nothing like your photo. Instead, I get one dialogue: audio source: choice of none, External AC3, External MP3, External WAW. So, no, it is impossible. Ah, the "frame" just displays a green box, the video does not display AT ALL. There is not timeline graph, either. I don't know how I may select cut points anywhere. This is Avidemux 2.5.6. Ah, I see the slider. When I move it the video appears. So, single audio track, difficult to set start end points, and only two, I can not remove commercials in the middle. I try to move the point with the keyboard. CPU goes to 100% on four cores and doesn't move the slider anymore. Killing app. Signal 15. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

Maybe you are using avidemux3? When using version 3, on select audio tracks, the fields are empty, it does not see any audio track in the already loaded video file. Apparently it wants me to load the track from an external file. So I select track 1 and 2 to be the same mpeg file. There is no way to select the audio tracks that exist in that stream. It should say that there are two tracks and allow me to select each one. This is useless. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)

No, it doesn't. I had to imput the video file in the selection box, instead of it automatically using the already loaded video file. Then, it presented me a selection with a hundred languages, instead of just the two that were in the file. When I did, it said that some tracks are used multiple times. It wants different external audio files as input! This is impossible to use.

I think in this case you'd be best off contacting directly one of the developers and presenting your specific workflow.

There are some simple tools that would do the task, but they are broken or abandoned. For instance, ProjectX. kdenlive people were adding dual language support last time I looked, perhaps at the start of this thread.

I would need another round of testing video software. One year I do it, I find nothing suitable, perhaps contact some project, then forget for another year. A GUI thing that would simply generate a script for ffmpeg could be adjusted, adding the proper switches to make ffmpeg work perfectly. I have not found such an editor. I have to try gopchop again. Oopps... version is March 2016, so the start of this thread. Pointless to test it again. Another abandonware? Yes. https://sourceforge.net/projects/gopchop/files/ Last dev version is 2009.

I keep thinking about the relative ease with which one could accomplish these kinds of edits 'back in the day' with the right (albeit expensive) analog equipment. :) I think a good start would be to write a script which reads a simple text input file, e.g. - - - - - 8< - - - - - simple text input file - - - - - >8 - - - - - ### Source ### # Source path and filename, e.g. /home/user/docs/videos/myvideo.mp4 ### Target ### # Target path and filename or directory for 'slices', e.g. # /external-usb/slicedvideo.mp4 or /external-usb/slices ### Slices ### # Create one new line with a value pair for each desired 'slice' using # hh:mm:ss format, e.g. # 01:59:00 02:00:00 'slices' one minute from the top of the 2nd hour: # cut-out-time cut-in-time ... # Inverse operation? 'yes' or 'no' ('yes' = keep the slices, # concatenate them into a single file and toss the rest) # Save 'slices' as clips? 'yes' or 'no' ('yes' disables concatenation) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - The script reads these inputs and generates the appropriate 'one liner.' Of course, the options supported by this system can be expanded to accommodate different needs. Geez!

I just found on the ffmepg mail list that avidemux has a cute hidden feature: you can remove sections in the middle, not just the start and end cuts. Just define a region from A to B that you want to remove. Then go to Menu/Edit/cut. The section goes instantly! You can repeat for as many sections as needed, apparently. Finally, do "Save" to apply it all. Works in versions 2 and 3. However. With my source video in version 2, I got a video with the audio taken from one of the removed sections, so totally out of sync.

Agreed,
Felix:
cinelerra can handle as many video and audio tracks as you like in its A/B storyboard editor. You can have 10 sound tracks if you like simultaneously with the various tracks fading it/out and playing on top of one another. It is an incredibly powerful editor. You can do just about everything you need very efficiently from the keyboard as all normal functions are mapped in a semi-logical way to the keyboard (in a manner similar to Vim or Emacs -- which also implies a that level of learning to fully master it)
I don't want tracks to fade in out. I don't want effects. I only want the output file to be an exact copy of the original, same codecs, same tracks, no recoding. It must be fast, process a video in minutes. Only commercials removed, that's all. Yes, I started cinelerra. I opened a file. I decided on an start and end points. Then I could not find how to tell it to generate the output file. Stuck. This thing needs a training course. Ah, if I hit "play" it plays both audio tracks simultaneously. This terrible, it should process both and play just one: either Spanish or English. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)

I downloaded vidcutter this afternoon, and now I told it to load a video. There is a help for keyboard shortcuts, where it says that the arrows move one frame. Well, it only happens when the mouse is on the timeline strip. Similarly with the mouse wheel. But it only moves forward! I can not select the point I want. I move the mouse holding the button to the point I want, and on release, it jumps several minutes to the right! In fact the procedure is to click on the time numbers and edit them. With the seconds highlighted, the keyboard moves the second up or down, from 0 to 60, not going over to the next minute. So, I generated and saved a clip. I did it wrong, it contains the commercial instead of the movie. But only the sound, no images! Obviously, a video editor that generates no video is useless. :-( -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

You'll probably want to study the script and play around with it a little bit, but it works for me. :) I'll repeat my suggestion to isolate your source, system and target disks to avoid read/write contention. hth & regards, Carl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Don't change the format of the output file leave audio and video codecs on copy also use mkv matroska as the file format. This is avidemux3 I'm referring to, I use it for joining videos because I can check the result on the fly use ffmpeg for converting. It preserves all the sound tracks as well if you output to mkv. The default avi doesn't.

Thanks :-) I'll try it out when it comes to packman :-) It is not only subtitles that matter for me, but different language audio tracks. Most movies here (on TV) comes in the original language (typically English) and the local one, Spanish. The subtitles they most often come in Spanish, and sometimes also in English (typically the ones for deaf people), which I prefer for me. I like to watch in English and if I have difficulties following the speech, I turn English subtitles on. If those are not available, I use the Spanish subtitles, but listening in English and reading in Spanish demands more effort for me. It is different from people that don't speak English, they are content with Spanish subtitles only. But then, most people here prefer Spanish audio; thus my recordings should have all options - and few video editors in Linux allow this. I don't know in Windows, but I guess they have them, seeing that I get recordings done precisely the way I want them. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.

I just use ffmpeg to remove adverts from my recordings. ffmpeg -i mov.mp4 -ss 01:00 -t 60 -c copy cut.mp4 -ss (which means start stream) will start at 1 min into the video (so removing the beginning). -t (time duration) will stream for 60 seconds -c copy will keep the encoding and not re-encode the video. So this command will output 60 seconds of video starting at 1 minute in. I use the slider in VLC player to find the exact times. Then just run the command again until you have all the segments of video between the adverts. Then join the videos together with concatenate command in ffmpeg. (Remember to specify -c copy to not re encode the video). You could write a bash script and input the times. Then it can cut out the sepcified sections and join them at the end. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Yes, this involved procedure works, but I have to add another step: a quick pass over the video stamping the time on the display, because otherwise there are errors.

Blender is a free app which runs on many platforms. It was originally intended for creating animated films, but its success has found it leveraged for other purposes-- i.e., I've used it to create objects for 3D printing. Development, based largely in Europe, is vigorous. Blender is designed from the beginning to accept and integrate add-ons, in a manner like Firefox and GIMP and other FOSSs. According to https://www.blender.org/features/, Blender has a built-in video editor and handles a variety of file formats. Documentation is available in several languages, but development happens so fast, the documentation can't be expected to cover all features and functions, so consult with other users and developers (e.g., https://www.blender.org/community/) before concluding that something can't be done. Installation from a Blender download onto CentOS 7.x went flawlessly for me, even though CentOS isn't what you'd call cutting-edge for providing the latest libraries (or kernel). There was just one dependency problem-- I had to pirate in a newer version of python--, this (I'm assuming) because either no shared libraries (excepting python) were needed or they were included (and specially or statically linked in) in the download. Me, I'd willingly trade a larger package of code over dependency-frustrations... wish more packages would provide that option. While I've never used Blender for video editing, it's a rich and promising app and shouldn't be a major hassle to install and try out. If the first attempt doesn't yield what you need, be sure to investigate the add-on libraries for additional functionality. hth, ken P.S.

FWIW, I just installed vidcutter (on 42.2) and got the same error. 'typing' is apparently a standard Python module that provides type hints.
But ... it's apparently only standard after version 3.6.5. So I tried:
$ python3 '/usr/bin/vidcutter'
but that gives the same error. Apparently I've only got 3.4.6
There is https://pypi.python.org/pypi/typing to download a backport but that's further than I'm going to try.
Ah, if I enable the devel:languages:python repository then I can install python3-typing and that fixes the error. Unfortunately, it then says: $ vidcutter QML debugging is enabled. Only use this in a safe environment. Error in sys.excepthook: Original exception was: Segmentation fault (core dumped) I have the suspicion that vidcutter is written expecting a newer version of python, so I shan't bother chasing it any further.

I think I read that the move to python3 is a work in progress in TW, so I guess that it is too early to get it into Leap 15.
Well both python 2 and python 3 are already in 42.2 so that's not a problem, and when I just ran vidcutter directly from the command line I saw afterwards that it automatically selected python 3 itself somehow. I'm not a python programmer but I suppose there must be some mechanism for a python program to declare that it needs a particular version of the python executable to run. I'm surprised that python doesn't appear in update-alternatives to select the default from the command line, though I suppose it is technically unnecessary. The work with TW may be adjusting system scripts to run properly under python 3, ideally as well as in python 2 but perhaps at the expense of python 2 compatibility. Since somebody has packaged vidcutter for packman, maybe its worth bug reporting the core dump, however that is done. BTW, vidcutter -h runs OK, so it may be worth trying to process some actual files. Maybe it's just the pathological case of no arguments that causes the crash? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

The problem appears to be in vidcutter version 5. I was running vidcutter fine until a few days ago (and I do not have python3-typing or python-typing on my system) but when I did an update which included version 5 it broke and I got the same error as above. I found version 4 here: download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/enzokiel/openSUSE_42.2_Update/ installed it and now it runs again with no problem. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Yeah, but it is a bug anyway if a required package is not installed by deps. Anyway, I installed that rpm, but vidcutter still doesn't work.

Anyway, I installed that rpm, but vidcutter still doesn't work. I managed to tell it to open a video file, it did nothing, the timeline displays nothing, it does not play the video, it is impossible to cut anything. If I give the name of the video file on the commandline, it crashes.
It works, Carlos, it really does (Leap 42.3 + VidCutter v5.0.0) :-).
It doesn't in 42.2, I tried again yesterday. It doesn't load the file.
It plays in 42.2 for me.
Well, I reported the issue in the packman mail list, and Luigi Baldoni is having a look. He has already solved the dependency issue, he told me, and asked to run with the --debug command line option. That produced a lot of output which I posted back there; I can not read pythonesse, so I don't know what it means ;-)

cer@Telcontar:~/Fusion/Hacer/Trek> vidcutter --debug p.mpeg QML
I wonder if the results depend on the particular video file? I tried playing several video files with different extensions (mp4, mpeg, mpg) and they all worked. Then I thought I should try a publically available one that we can all test with. So I downloaded big_buck_bunny.mp4 from http://www.quirksmode.org/html5/tests/video.html That plays fine from the web in Firefox, and the downloaded copy plays fine in totem or vlc on my 42.2 machine. But when I tried it with vidcutter, it completely locked my machine! No response to any keys that I could find; no mouse pointer visible; hard reboot was my only answer. So I think there's definitely some problem with vidcutter but I won't be the one investigating further, sorry. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Could be. I know the files recorded from that TV recorder have problems on other programs, but ffmpeg handles them.

I tried with the first episode of a particular serial that was recorded somewhat differently (not something I can do at will). This file succeeds to load in vidcutter, I could remove lead and tail, with some problems. The resulting video displayed no video on xine. It played well in vlc. But it had lost the subtitles and the second audio track (Japanesse in this case). If vidcutter is unable to keep the two audio tracks it is no use to me. There are other difficulties: I can move with the cursor keys, but the "left cursor" key works only for a bit, then it gets stuck. I have to use the mouse to pass that point, and the mouse is very innacurate, too sensitive. Ah, I see I up/dn keys work. Hovering with the mouse over the buttons produce a grey text box with probably a hint, but the text is missing. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.

This is really weird. So I just tried the big_buck_bunny.mp4, could without issues load it in vidcutter v5, cut out a subclip and save it, and properly play the edited one using mpv. Then I loaded an mkv, a 27GB Bluray rip with 3 audio tracks and one subtitle track. Again marked a small piece of it, saved it. The edit had all three audio and the subtitle tracks intact....

Going backwards is always an issue, because of the differential and reference frames. Especially on not too powerfull hardware. I think you have to go back to last I-frame and then apply diff frames up to the previous frame. I tried that (back move) with my laptop, and did not have stop issues, except it being quite slow (2-3fps). (lappy is quite beefy though, i7 with 16GB)

I tried both multimedia:apps and packman, I think. Currently it is from packman. See my previous response to David Haller, he has helped me locate problems in the software called by vidcutter, ffprobe. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.

All those are from packman. Xine displays fine the original video, not the trimmed version. In fact, alt-I says the codec is unavailable. The next data row is all zeroes.

cer@Telcontar:~/Fusion/Hacer/Trek> vidcutter --debug p.mpeg QML I wonder if the results depend on the particular video file?
I tried playing several video files with different extensions (mp4, mpeg, mpg) and they all worked. Then I thought I should try a publically available one that we can all test with. So I downloaded big_buck_bunny.mp4 from http://www.quirksmode.org/html5/tests/video.html
That plays fine from the web in Firefox, and the downloaded copy plays fine in totem or vlc on my 42.2 machine. But when I tried it with vidcutter, it completely locked my machine! No response to any keys that I could find; no mouse pointer visible; hard reboot was my only answer.
So I think there's definitely some problem with vidcutter but I won't be the one investigating further, sorry.
Hi Dave, VidCutter plays this video strip fine on my system: Leap 42.3. What I haven't mentioned yet is that I am running (the latest) kernel v4.14.2-3.

I forgot to mention, if you don't want to remux anyway to mkv, you can use '-oac copy' instead of '-nosound' and skip the mkvmerge. Reason for me is that _my_ old mencoder barfs on copying aac audio. And I'm not sure if it's still recommended not to use the -af mkv muxer but use mkvmerge instead as I do.
Thanks for the hint :-)
Foir the moment, I was not looking at recoding at all, but just to remove commercials in the middle and the lead/tail sections, which sometimes are half of the file.
Yeah, and with recoding, you'd might get down to 25% ;) Always depends on the sizes ;) If I can get a file down from 3GB+ to about 1.2GB ... On the other hand, if getting a file from 400M to 200M in a few minutes... And as long as (my) CPU cores have nothing else to do ... BTW: you can also set nr= inside avidemux (second tab in the x264 settings IIRC). Anyway: if you get constant-BR streams or other stuff, it's sometimes really astonishing how much you can save while reencoding. the "crf=23" has so far always been more than good enough and the 'nr=750' might make it even a touch less noisy, but mostly the nr= removes (inside the x264 codec!) tons of noise that'd result in frames differences, which thusly won't have to be encoded at all. If you _see_ the noise and want to remove that, nr= is not what you need, that's not "strong" enough by far. But it's very efficient at removing stuff that'd blow up frame-diffs. Even with "normal" VBR encoded stuff, I got 20%-30% less size in the result, just by adding the nr= option for x264.

Hi, DaVinci Resolve is freeware, and is much more powerful then any other non-paid alternative. With free version you can't output 4k and 8k videos, but I don't think its necessary for a hobby. There are a lot of tutorials on youtube. Installation on Linux requires nVidia card and CUDA support. On 11/20/2017 09:09 PM, gumb wrote:

One for Carlos - I hope this reply goes into the right place in this ancient thread.
I believe you were looking for video tools that would treat/export all the original subtitle tracks. I just saw a piece on OMG!Ubuntu! about an update to VidCutter, which *may* - if the notes hold true - provide this functionality, but you'll have to try it out yourself.

I only need a simple editor for streams recorded from TV. I want to remove the start lead, the tail end, and the commercials in the middle. It also has to keep the two audio tracks (Spanish and English) and the subtitles. Best if it doesn't recode the video stream, for speed - just remove sections, copy the rest as is. Does DaVinci Resolve do that? It is not available in Packman. I see in wikipedia that it is very powerful, but what I need is very simple, yet none of what I have tested does it, or it is very complex to handle. There is only Spanish wikipedia article and it does not cite the main web link. Project X does it, but crashes on my cable TV streams (https://sourceforge.net/projects/project-x/). -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)

To be honest, I don't use the commercial detection system in MythTV. I think I had trouble with it in the beginning (5 years ago), and then never bothered again. When an ad section starts, I find it just as easy to press '4' and skip forward (cursor right). (95% of ad sections are 4 minutes long, some 2/3/5 even 6). You also get to judge the popularity - the longer the break, the more popular the show :-)

Yes, it displays TV and radio from a variety of sources, using a pletora of plugins, and can directly record from those. Now that I think, it probably has a plugin to display from youtube.

I got, offlist, the idea of testing a Windows app, Smart Cutter for DV and DVB (<http://www.fame-ring.com/>). It is payware, but has a free trial version (I don't know what are the limitations of the trial version). It does not recode. You mark the points for removal, then generate a resulting file. I'm testing it inside a vmware virtual machine. Marking the edit points is a bit slow, but once done the recording is very fast, being basically a file copy operation. What I have not being sucessful yet is in removing sections, the result has the entire stream. I don't know if I'm not doing it right or that's a limitation of the "trial" version. Ah, apparently it is a water mark, says the web page - but I see no water mark in the result. I'll test a bit more. If I can make it work, the next step would be to run it in Wine instead. According to the help, I mark a start point, an end point, then hit delete to remove that section. It doesn't, instead it deletes the mark points, and the conversion applies to the entire stream. This software is the exact thing I want, but it fails to work. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.

I simply can't find a suitable video editor that works.
My goal is to extract the interesting parts of a TV recording. Ie, mark the start of the movie, the end, the commercials inside, and dump all that into a single file, perhaps recoding.
One limitation is that movies here have two sound tracks, one in Spanish, and the other one in the original language, typically English. I want to keep both, obviously.
I don't need any transition or effect, just a simple editor that allows me to remove unwanted sections.
I have tried:
pitivi - crashes on start

dvbcut - says my mpeg file is not a video (and it certainly is!)

I have it from packman. Besides crashing too often, I find it difficult to cut out the exact regions, and even if I get that far, it ignores the second audio track on conversion. I'll try again. I load the video. If play automatically is selected in the open file dialogue, the application crashes immediately. I see a clip monitor window at the top right, so I try to use that. The video I'm trying has 3 hours. I have to go to the start of the appropriate section with the mouse. To select the exact frame I would use the keyboard, but it doesn't respond. There is a little box on the right where I can select the second with the keyboard, but the image doesn't update till I release the keyboard. I then hit the "[" miniicon to signal that I want the start point just there. After some experimentation it does just that, but there is no visible sign in the slider till I also signal the end point somewhere. I drag that to the "video 1" slider. It is a 10 minutes cut for testing. I hit "render". I select Matroska, which I know for sure it supports several audio tracks. Running, start 13:22, Estimated time 36:18 - that's a lot for a ten minutes video, ffmpeg is faster. Finished in 59 minutes, at 14:21 hours. I got "untitled.mkv", and it only has one audio stream (English is missing), so it is of no use to me. I absolutely need both Spanish and English audio in the same file. I can live with a slow program, but not one that doesn't produce the expected result.

Looks promising, thanks :-) I selected easily the start and end of the movie. This one has no commercials, but I wonder if the program is able to remove more sections in the middle. Now to convert. It says it will take three hours. No, four. It is a lot. Now it is 22:16. If I try "mediainfo" on the partially written file, it has only video track, no audio :-? Maybe it is written later.

I notice that it is working all CPU cores: 382% (at nice level), the rest up to 400% is used by other tasks, like firefox, that is good. Machine is still very responsive.

Now it is 23:06 I notice now that the audio is set to copy zero tracks, so I stop it. Apparently I have to manually select audio tracks (from which file) and select language. No, it says "Error: some tracks are used multiple times". It forces me to remove one of the audio tracks, only allows one. Ok, it seems I have to select the file again, and I have two tracks now. I'm unsure if it is using both languages. Another thirty minutes, starting at 23:21 [...] It aborted at 72% :-/ The result has two audio tracks, both muted, no sound. It plays badly on xine, jerkily.

If you have a video without commercials, your way was the right one. If you want to remove commercials, you have to mark the commercial and then press "del" or go to edit->delete. Repeat for every commercial and the start/end you want to crop.
* Produces no sound. * Can not parse the input stream, it aborts somewhere in the middle.
I can only guess that the recording has some problems like missing frames. For the audio: avidemux3 can have problems encoding audio when the audio tracks change during recording. For broken files you may have a chance to fix it by cutting it with avidemux and select copy for both Video and Audio output. Then try to postprocess it with HandBrake. Or try to preprocess it with HandBrake and then cut it with avidemux3.

MTS (aka numerical TV files) often have faulty frames, and only a MTS reader can cope with this. This gives with most readers out of synv audio... I know of no solution.

Most of my videos come from a TV recorder, and I do them using two programs in Java: cridmanager and projectX. It does no conversion, just allows cutting at the GOP point, allowing removal of any section. It is quite fast, I can "adapt" a dozen of videos at the same time. And it runs in Java, so works both in Linux and Windows. And it handles both language tracks, only that the ordering is unpredicatable. After having a file with the material I want, I can use ffmpeg to recode it at a smaller size. However, these new videos come from a different device. Instead of over the air, they are transmitted on fibre, and the result is already an mpeg file, of a huge size, like 12 or more gigabytes. Several resolutions. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

Looks OK. h264 encoded video, 2 audio streams, a third broken. Can you start avidemux3 using a terminal and then try to cut/encode until it fails? Probably console error messages show the problem. Have you tried to set copy to video and audio settings? Have you tried to preprocess the file with handbrake?

Kino is an abandoned project, apparently. Cinelerra is simply unable to load the video. It prints no error, but after thinking for minutes, nothing is shown. Perhaps expanding it first, as you suggest, might do a difference. kdenlive only supports one audio track (verified on bugzilla).

Wrong. You need to reverse the way of cutting: - select crud at start with A/B-Markers, delete - select crud at in middle with A/B-Markers, delete [..] - select crud at end with A/B-Markers, delete save what remains to a new file.

avidemux2 only allows one track from the current file.

Certainly. But I haven't tried the exact point where it stops. Jdd says that this type of videos are indeed faulty.

Certainly, they are. There is one app that comes from the multimedia repo, not being available in packman. I don't remember which one at the moment.

I tested this with a 2 minute video and 2 extra sound tracks.
I know how to recode and crop a video with two audio tracks with ffmpeg, I do it often. The problem is to remove the minutes before the start of the movie, those beyond the end, and the commercials in the middle. With ffmpeg I can extract the section in the middle with ffmpeg. Tell it a start point in seconds and the duration, I think. I just need to find those points. However, some of these streams have a bad timeline, the seconds correspond to several seconds in the real world. I have seen a suggestion from someone here (sorry, I forget whom, busy day), about expanding (uncompressing) the video stream first, because some applications are happier. I'm unfamiliar with this technique. Anyone? -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)

Nope. You can cut the file as descriped in the parallel post, and then save first the second and more audio-tracks to an external file by selecting each as Main audio track (Audio -> Main track), then lastly select the "main" audio track as "Main Audio" and save that together with the video (or also as external file). Then mux it all together with mkvmerge.

Works for me.

By default, ffmpeg includes only one stream of each type (video, audio, subtitle) present in the input files and adds them to each output file. It picks the "best" of each based upon the following criteria: for video, it is the stream with the highest resolution, for audio, it is the stream with the most channels, for subtitles, it is the first subtitle stream. In the case where several streams of the same type rate equally, the stream with the lowest index is chosen. You can disable some of those defaults by using the "-vn/-an/-sn" options. For full manual control, use the "-map" option, which disables the defaults just described. It doesn't say an option to "include all streams"! :-( -map [-]input_file_id[:stream_specifier][,sync_file_id[:stream_specifier]] | [linklabel] (output) The first "-map" option on the command line specifies the source for output stream 0, the second "-map" option specifies the source for output stream 1, etc. So it should be -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -map 0:3 to include the three streams in the same order.

it's in french, but google translate is probably enough to understand it. I always find easier to correct first, then edit with any application. ProjectX gives separately video and audio. Not tested with several tracks
I can almost read French, but not completely, so I used google translate. I have ProjectX 0.90.4 installed from source, combined with cridmanager-1.4.3, which is a tool to work with the Gigaset M740AV. This cridmanager calls ProjectX with the appropriate list of files for movies recorded in the gigaset. This combo works perfectly. I tried in the past ProjectX from packman, but it failed somehow. I tried the ProjectX that I have with two of the movies I have now, and it is unable to load them: Error while decoding frame not enough data in buffer -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

Hi,
I simply can't find a suitable video editor that works.
My goal is to extract the interesting parts of a TV recording. Ie, mark the start of the movie, the end, the commercials inside, and dump all that into a single file, perhaps recoding.
Well, taking info from several posts here, I'm trying with ffmpeg in the CLI. I use avidemux to find the cut points and the crop values. In the sample I'm testing, I have to remove 138 lines top and bottom. The filter says that it is cropping from "1920x1080 ==> 1920*804" Thus the CLI option for ffmpeg has then to be "-vf crop=1920:804:0:138" For start and end times, also use avidemux. It starts on 00:05:44.600 and ends on 01:58:30.520. The parameter for ffmpeg is start and duration, so calculate the duration in LO calc. It becomes "-ss 00:05:44.600 -t 01:52:45.92" I include "-maps" for all streams, and I add "-async" to protect against sync errors. The full line becomes: ffmpeg -i "Star Trek.mpeg" \ -ss 00:05:44.600 -t 01:52:45.92 \ -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -map 0:2 \ -q:v 4 -q:a 1 -async 1 -vcodec libxvid \ -vf crop=1920:804:0:138 \ -acodec libmp3lame StarTrek.avi However, the movie ends short: the timestamps in the resulting video does not match those in the input. I had to convert the entire input file, after failing on 3 earlier attempts that also ended short. The stop point in the output is 3:14:25, which is absurd. The problem may be different. (It would be nice to be able to do a fast and dirty conversion for these tests, instead of waiting an hour or two for each test, but I don't know how) The problem is that sound is choppy, but not at the start, but since the point 15:30. There is a chirp, then the sound plays and mutes every second. Maybe those silent periods every second are adding to the total play time. As it is, of course, the movie is unwatchable. The full output on the CLI is: cer@Telcontar:~/Videos/Fusion/trabajo> ffmpeg -i "La pelicula de la semana Star Trek.mpeg" -ss 00:05:44.600 -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -map 0:2 -q:v 4 -q:a 1 -async 1 -vcodec libxvid -vf crop=1920:804:0:138 -acodec libmp3lame StarTrek.avi ffmpeg version 3.0 Copyright (c) 2000-2016 the FFmpeg developers built with gcc 4.8 (SUSE Linux) configuration: --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 --shlibdir=/usr/lib64 --incdir=/usr/include/ffmpeg --extra-cflags='-fmessage-length=0 -grecord-gcc-switches -fstack-protector -O2 -Wall -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -funwind-tables -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -g' --optflags='-fmessage-length=0 -grecord-gcc-switches -fstack-protector -O2 -Wall -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -funwind-tables -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -g' --disable-htmlpages --enable-pic --disable-stripping --enable-shared --disable-static --enable-runtime-cpudetect --enable-gpl --disable-openssl --enable-avresample --enable-libcdio --enable-gnutls --enable-ladspa --enable-libass --enable-libbluray --enable-libcelt --enable-libcdio --enable-libdc1394 --enable-libfreetype --enable-libgsm --enable-libopenjpeg --enable-libopus --enable-libpulse --enable-libschroedinger --enable-libspeex --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvpx --enable-libwebp --enable-pic --enable-pthreads --enable-vaapi --enable-vdpau --disable-decoder=dca -- enable-libdcadec --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libopencore-amrnb --enable-libopencore-amrwb --enable-version3 --enable-libtwolame --enable-libx264 --enable-libx265 --enable-libxvid --enable-x11grab libavutil 55. 17.103 / 55. 17.103 libavcodec 57. 24.102 / 57. 24.102 libavformat 57. 25.100 / 57. 25.100 libavdevice 57. 0.101 / 57. 0.101 libavfilter 6. 31.100 / 6. 31.100 libavresample 3. 0. 0 / 3. 0. 0 libswscale 4. 0.100 / 4. 0.100 libswresample 2. 0.101 / 2. 0.101 libpostproc 54. 0.100 / 54. 0.100 [h264 @ 0x703280] mmco: unref short failure [h264 @ 0x703280] Increasing reorder buffer to 2 [h264 @ 0x703280] Increasing reorder buffer to 3 [h264 @ 0x703280] mmco: unref short failure Input #0, mpegts, from 'La pelicula de la semana Star Trek.mpeg': Duration: 03:01:02.68, start: 1.017833, bitrate: 9902 kb/s Program 1 Stream #0:0[0x1e1]: Video: h264 (High) ([27][0][0][0] / 0x001B), yuv420p(tv, bt709), 1920x1080 [SAR 1:1 DAR 16:9], 25 fps, 25 tbr, 90k tbn, 50 tbc Stream #0:1[0x1e2](esp): Audio: mp2 ([3][0][0][0] / 0x0003), 48000 Hz, stereo, s16p, 192 kb/s (clean effects) Stream #0:2[0x1e3](AU2): Audio: mp2 ([3][0][0][0] / 0x0003), 48000 Hz, stereo, s16p, 128 kb/s (clean effects) File 'StarTrek.avi' already exists.

Same choppy sound after 00:17:46 (different TV channel) b) Same choppy sound after 00:40:02 (same channel as 'a') c) Same choppy sound after 00:48:15 (different TV channel). With a commercial in the middle. So, unless I find an option to ffmpeg that corrects the choppiness, conversion is impossible. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
