Well, I was also able to render to raw-DV, but then converting to .mpg via ffmpeg produced noticeably worse result, i.e. quality went down. :-/ john> I'll be happy to swap info with you, if it's at all interesting. john> But, for my part, the lower risk approach to finishing my project john> is to use the Raw DV technique, vs a deep dive into application john> building.

Ohh, java/CVS is something I never really touched, so you are much more qualified than myself. ;) Why don't you try something like: git clone git://git.cinelerra.org/j6t/cinelerra.git and then: ./configure --disable-mmx (if you're on x86_64) or ./configure --enable-mmx (if not) and then: make make install should be all you need. Check http://cv.cinelerra.org/docs/cinelerra_cv_manual_en.html#SEC12 more more info (I included git repo which is used for the build in Archlinux distro.) Hope it helps...
