Hi, hm, I thought I had used the appropriate mkvideo version... However, now it seems to work in both constellations: With lilypond 2.19 in a regular Debian system, and with lilypond 2.21 in lilydev and with the corrected mkvideo-lily-diff. The only thing: In both cases it takes a rather long time to generate the files. First when "generating wav files from midi input"
Here fluidsynth is executed.
and after that when "generating xx temporary h264 files" the process seems to be stuck. It takes about 4-5 minutes per file to generate.
Here ghostscript and ffmpeg are executed.
So when I try your example "video_mwe.ly", it takes about 1 hour... I am wondering if this has to be, cause with the prior version without coloured notes, the whole video took no longer than 4-5 Minutes.
As the number of temporary x264 files increases, the coloured notes mode requires a lot more time. Typically the consumed cpu time will rise by a factor greater 10.
Do you have any idea?
Unless you use a very old system video generation really should be faster.

Edit mkvideo, change "CLEAN=1" to "CLEAN=0". 2. lilypond video-mwe 3. ./mkvideo Please send the console output that mkvideo generated. Please send the result of "dir --sort=time mkvideo-XXXXX | tac" (adapt the name of the temp directory created by mkvideo. Please send a description of your system (cpu/ram/disk). While mkvideo is generating the temporary x264 files: Is swap memory used? Slow hard disk? Partition almost full? Encrypted file system? Dont't forget to restore CLEAN and to remove the temporary directory. Knut
