Fedora 10 x86-64 Cinelerra build

Update 2009/02/24
You can avoid having to build Cinelerra from source by using Nicolas Chauvet's (Kwizart) precompiled Cinelerra installs:
1) install the Kwizart yum repositories
http://rpms.kwizart.net/kwizart-release-10.rpm

2) install cinelerra-cv
[mule@ogre doc]$ sudo yum install cinelerra-cv* --enablerepo=kwizart

Building from Source
Though editing video on Linux is never easy, I'm happy to say that Fedora 10 is finally stable, after I've resolved or worked around the various bugs I've encountered.

I built Cinelerra from the CVS repository (not Heroine Warrior's) on Fedora 10 x86-64 about a month and a half ago, but haven't had time to post the steps. I can say I've put the Fedora 10 build through its paces by editing all different formats in the context of 1080p video. I will add the caveat that Cinelerra is very choosy about the formats it likes, as shown in my testing results below:

* Note that I haven't tested all combinations of containers and compression schemes, but this is a good first step

The steps are the same as the steps I ran to build Cinelerra on Fedora 9. Though this post will be rather short, consult my Fedora 9 post for all the details. FYI - the Fedora 9 system and Cinelerra build was so fraught with problems that I opted to move on to Fedora 10. I suggest you do the same.

Detail
The below steps should all be run as "root" or sudo
1) install Fedora 10
I usually select the Developer's package, as it will include many of the developer libraries necessary to build Cinelerra from source. Be aware that this install is rather large, weighing in at around 7GB.

Update 2008/02/17
After reviewing the storage consuming "Developer" install, I decided to build out a "Custom" install of Fedora. The base + Cinelerra dependencies yielded a slimmer install, at about 3.5GB.

However, for ease of use, it is probably easier to go ahead and install the "Developer" install. I did not do this, and even with all the Cinelerra dependencies checking out as "Found", I encountered three problems:
1) g++ was missing (go ahead and do "yum install gcc-c++" to resolve this)
2) libXv-devel was missing (the Cinelerra make process failed on a libxv header file)
3) libXxf86vm-devel was missing (the Cinelerra process failed on "/usr/bin/ld cannot find -lXxf86vm")

Oh, the fun we have!
*** end update ***

2) add the RPM Fusion repository for yum
http://rpmfusion.org/Configuration

3) install the dependencies for Cinelerra
For this step, I've provided a script below that installs all dependent programs for a Cinelerra installation from two repos: Fedora base and RPM Fusion.

Paste the below text into a file, save it and run it as a script. Don't forget to "chmod a+x yourFile" in order to make your script executable. The script will install all the dependencies in order to build Cinelerra
yum install gsm-devel \
libvorbis* \
libogg* \
libtool* \
libtheora* \
libpng* \
libjpeg* \
libtiff* \
esound* \
audiofile* \
libraw1394* \
libavc1394* \
freetype* \
fontconfig* \
nasm \
e2fsprogs* \
OpenEXR* \
fftw \
fftw-devel \
libsndfile* \
libiec61883* \
libdv* \
libquicktime \
ffmpeg \
xvidcore* \
lame \
lame-devel \
a52* \
faad2* \
x264* \
mjpegtools* \
faac* \
vlc*

4) get the Cinelerra source
git clone git://git.cinelerra.org/j6t/cinelerra.git cinelerra_source

5) in the Cinelerra source directory, run ./autogen.sh

6) in the Cinelerra source directory, run ./configure

7) As long as configure shows no errors, go ahead and run "make"

8) As long as make showed no errors, run "make install"

That should be it. Again, consult my Fedora 9 Cinelerra install post for more detail on these steps.

Lastly, you could avoid the whole build process and just use my Fedora 10, x86-64 VMware virtual machine, about 3GB, here:
Fedora10 VM

Please drop me a line and let me know how it goes..love to hear from you.

Good luck,
The Mule
