opensuse and cinelerra
 

has anyone here successfully installed cinelerra 2.0 (either the heroine one or the cv one) on their opensuse system? i really need help on how to install cinelerra on opensuse since i never had any luck compiling from source and i can't find a prebuilt rpm for opensuse. as well, i don't understand how subversion works, and the homepage does not even detail what subversion is. so there, help anyone? :)

You are right, there are no SUSE rpms, but I see a couple generic unlabelled, which I personally wouldn't try.

So, that leaves compiling from the source, which I see many places, and which it sounds like you already have.

Without looking too heavily as I do not have the source, nor a Linux box around, would guess you should be doing something similiar to:
./configure
./make
./install

But any variation can usually be round in the readme(s) accompanying the files.

If you have any luck, please post. I tried on my SuSE-9.3 about a month ago, and after wasting a weekend, I gave up on it. I ended up in dependency hell, and the way foward did not look pretty. .... Since then I've installed Smart Package manager that might help me with the dependencies, but given that many of Cinelerra's dependencies are latest version, that may not be the case. Still, I may try again, ... perhaps over Christmas when I get some time off.

If you succeed eventually, please post how you did it. There are a number of us who would like to follow in your footsteps.

well, i tried installing the rpm from the heroine warrior site. cinelerra-2.0-1.i386.rpm is the binary file name. it seems to be a generic binary for intel systems. it installed without a hitch, not even one dependency problem. i'm gonna try it later this evening how it handles, if there are glitches to be found.

maybe someone here can tell me how to use subversion? i wanna have the cv version installed. it may be more bug-free at least. :)

the cv version was the one I pulled my hair out over. After your success, I may try the version from the heroine warrier site. Since I failed with installing the cv version, I don't feel comfortable giving instructions. ... I do recall it wasn't too difficult to figure out the subversion (although maybe thats why I failed).

well, i can't render anything out using the cinelerra rpm i downloaded. where are the suse 10.0 binaries? anyone out there who might know? :)

I´m using open Suse 10. I tried download cinelerra from cvs. If i run ./configure i get the message that openexr is not available on my system. If I open yast i see it is. What can I do?

I think that cinerella isn't a serious viedo editing tool.
an someone install it? i followed the istruction but i receive alot of error, more probably it is a pre-alfa version.
