Hi,
I've just recently started using Cinelerra [1], and I've encountered my
first real obstacle. My goal is simple, at least to phrase: I want to
render 1080p video with audio, and it should all play nicely on my
PlayStation 3.
The PlayStation3 supports a wide range of formats [2], but I prefer H264
encoded video, AAC encoded audio put in an MPEG4 container, as this is
also what my video camera uses, and what I use when ripping DVDs.
However, Cinelerra doesn't seem to support rendering to this format. In
fact, I haven't been able to come up with a combination of video format,
audio format, and container that both renders without crashing *and*
plays on the PlayStation3.
The "MPEG4YUV Stream" render profile looks promising! Unfortunately it
just spits out video -- no audio.
Wouldn't it be possible include the raw audio tracks in this stream? I
assume the video is as raw as it gets?
The idea of allowing a user-defined command to handle the transcoding is
extremely flexible and first perfectly in the spirit of *nix. On the
other hand, I also see it working against the whole concept of Cinelerra
being a complete application and out-of-the-box experience.
But wouldn't it be a nice feature? To be able to render to whatever
output you like? As a final option to us that can't do with Cinelerra
supports natively now?
Is this feature on the roadmap? How long would it take to implement?
Could I do it? I'm desperate! =) I have this great NLE but can't render =(
