I would understand that kind of comment from somebody who doesn't use and video tools - as you suggested a BLAG maintener. But when I heat it from Dan Sawyer who is a Linux writer and does professional video production then that is completely different story. He did claim that you need to compile kdenlive from source in order to make new features work because in older releases you couldn't even separate audio from video. Also video framework MLT that kdenlive uses has gone through mayor changes in past few months. BLAG linux is over year old and stuck at fedora 7 release so I wouldn't give them a look if they don't plan to update to F9.
So I would love to try for myself and see how kdenlive looks and works. If a linux video professional says that kdenlive is great I guess he knows what he is taking about because he is putting his money where his mouth is and using it in production.
I have been to cinelerra workshop and love it! But I would also try other tools if somebody packages it for fedora.
You're making many claims. Do you know Jeff Moe? BLAG deliberately stays behind Fedora by a version for solid reasons. It tries to be a slighly 'late' Fedora that just works, and it features compiled versions of many A/V programs that aren't available elsewhere - that's changing now, but, they were in front of the curve in many areas for awhile.
I don't know Dan Sawyer so I can't speak to him, but there are many Linux video writers and many claiming to do 'professional video production' -- if he claims he's doing professional video on Kdenlive, I would like to see that, but until I do...
I admit I'm not too familiar with BLAG or Jeff Moe, and I didn't say anything as a fact just as my personal observation. I was on BLAG forums and I don't see almost anything happening there, and that they don't have dates on their posts doesn't help also :( I'll keep an eye on BLAG a bit more. Does anybody know why aren't they making their packages available for livna or RPM Fusion?
Cheers, Valent.
