Fedora 9 Cinelerra deps, ATrpms note

Some people have complained of incompatibilities with Fedora and ATrpms. Instead, they recommend using the better supported RPMFusion, the repository that has merged all the other repositories for Fedora. This is a good idea; however, I have not yet had a chance to test the Fusion RPMs.

Here's a post on how to build Cinelerra from source on Fedora 10, x86-64
*** end update ***

I'm using ATrpms for a small number of Cinelerra dependencies, sixteen programs in all (listed below). I've given my new Fedora 9 system a fairly good break in test and have not found any issues arising from my use of ATrpms.

12/17/2008 Note regarding my use of ATrpms
So often in this topsy-turvy world of new distributions and funky repositories, the moment you write that an install is without problems, that old devil fate creeps up on you and proves you wrong.

Such is the case with my recent Cinelerra build from source using ATrpms dependencies. The whole day last Sunday was shot with a nasty Cinelerra hang that was only resolved when I removed the ATrpms repo programs, installed the RPM Fusion repository and recompiled Cinelerra. I'll follow up with a more detailed explanation but for now, The Mule would like to humbly apologize to anyone he led astray by recommending ATrpms.

On the positive side, unexpected problems usually lead one to find new solutions and better ways of doing things. So that's the upside of this mess.

I've put my system through the following tests:
-edit 720P project in Cinelerra
-via Cinelerra's YUV4MPEG streamer and mpeg2enc, export 720P resolution MPEG2 video
-from Cinelerra, export MPEG, Layer II audio
-using mplex, combine MPEG2 video and MPEG Layer II audio stream into MPEG-PS
-using VLC, convert program stream into MPEG-TS
-using FFMPEG, convert transport stream into DVD
-using FFMPEG, convert DVD file into iTunes compatible format

This is my normal workflow. Nothing seems to have broken in this workflow, so I think ATrpms has not effected my particular install.

Again, my apologies if anyone had tried using ATrpms based on my advice.
