Re: Anyone do DV editing (Kino and Cinelerra)?
Apparently, _Bill Moseley_, on 07/06/04 15:00,typed:
Ok, I'm playing with Kino -- works reasonably well, although segfaults
when trying to control my Sony camera where dvgrab and gscanbus work
fine at running the camera. Now I want to try Cinelerra.
I am also just started using Kino ( 0.71-2 ) on Testing, running
2.4.26-1-686. I am able to control my Sony TRV25 and also capture the
video. I haven't experience any seg faults yet.
Can someone explain a bit about capturing. I found what seems like an
old tutorial at <http://www.robfisher.net/video/kino.html> says to use
dvutils (dv2mov and dvmov2dv) to move between formats.
What I did was:
1) Connect the camera with firewire cord.
2) made sure all modules were loaded (for some reason, I have to load
video1394 myserlf):
/sbin/lsmod | grep 1394
dv1394 18832 0 (unused)
video1394 12628 0 (unused)
ohci1394 25744 0 [dv1394 video1394]
raw1394 18584 0 (autoclean)
ieee1394 186628 0 (autoclean) [dv1394 video1394 ohci1394
raw1394]
3) Put the camcorder in VCR mode.
4) Choose to capture in Quicktime video mode
5) "Play" the VCR (from remote or camcorder, from Kino seems to give
problems) and press "Capture" in Kino.
The capture continues and when you are done, you will have .mov files of
your scenes in the place you specified in your Kino preferences.
I can explain more if you have specific question regarding these operatins.
I've found the dvutils in source at:
http://www.singingwizard.org/programming.html
But that page says the utils are deprecated in favor of using Kino
directly.
Yes, Kino directly seems to be working fine as far as I can say.
Ok, so I can use kino or dvgrab --format qt to export to .mov, BUT
there's no audio. dbgrap reports:
quicktime_encode_audio_stub called
I get this too but I am not sure what this means. Here is my sample:
quicktime_delete_acodec_stub called
quicktime_delete_vcodec_stub called
quicktime_delete_acodec_stub called
quicktime_delete_vcodec_stub called
quicktime_delete_acodec_stub called
quicktime_delete_vcodec_stub called
quicktime_delete_acodec_stub called
The real step I am having problems is to exporting from Kino to DVD
format as mpeg file.
so it looks like I can encode the video, but not the audio.
Any idea what's needed to get the audio? Does dvgrab need to be
recomplied and linked with a library that will encode the audio?
Can't help you there, I myself am looking for details.
dvgrab:
Installed: 1.5deb-2
Candidate: 1.5deb-2
Version Table:
*** 1.5deb-2 0
500 http://http.us.debian.org unstable/main Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
By the way -- any pointers to tutorials would be great. I'm also
curious about the difference between the raw1394 and the dv1394
drivers (and when to use each).
There was a post a couple of days ago about home movies and DVD burning.
But apart from that I am afraid it looks as though not many Debian users
are interested in this kind of thing. I haven't got many responses to
related queries. From what I can see, this mailing list (or gmane
newsgroup) is more greared towards the internal working of Debian, unix
or linux commands and their working, Debian constitution, etc. and not
towards these kind of applications (video audio editing) that perhaps
are relatively new entrants to Linux (as opposed too say cp or dd
commands). A better bet would be perhaps to read the cinelerra and kino
mailing lists directly. I post here in the hope that someone maybe
interested in these things or my post maybe, just maybe, would be
helpful to someone else.
Good luck,
