As we all know by now, interlaced video is not 25 fps but 50 fps. So how to deal with this accuratly. Well, for rendering uncomposited edits back to a file its easy. But two problems remain, how to composite and how to display it on screen.
I’d like to tackle the second issue first, because […]
Hi,
Different things happened, a local buffer overflow vulnerability was reported on the Open Movie Editor, actually I don’t care very much, but of course i fixed it. Be aware, there might be more of these, but if an attacker has local access, you’re propably screwed anyways.
There were some problems with large-file support, actually stat failes […]
Hi,
these days I’m mostly into bug-fixing, because I also do a little video editing, and this makes me aware of issues that I haven’t experienced yet. I also started to implement resampling, using the decorator design pattern. Funnily enough I wasn’t even aware that this is considered a design pattern, I just thought it was […]
Check out this talk about Open Source Graphic Drivers. The Paper is available from the Proceedings, volume 1, page 19.
Since the Open Movie Editor uses OpenGL for accelerated preview, open and free graphic drivers are essential. Because without, a lot of systems cannot run the Open Movie Editor unless you add evil non-free drivers.

Hi,
I made a release last week, that brings in some nice new features, for example a more extensive media browser. But more useful is propably the possibility to select several clips and move them at once.
So what is next? Well, libquicktime has support for a number of interesting formats in it’s latest fashion, therefore I […]
Hi,
the last week my brother started using the Open Movie Editor for a short film project. This was really nice, because in the process he discovered I number of issues that needed fixes, that I wasn’t aware of. Some of those were related to the changes that came along with the jack support, others were […]
Hi,
right now i’ve finished almost every undo action except adding/removing tracks, which I’ll hopefully do this week. And then I think I’m ready for yet another release, for which I might also fix some outstanding issues.
This would then be the first release featuring native jack support, complete with jack transport control, that is you can […]
Hi,
so what’s going on in the Open Movie Editor Universe?
Well, I’ve been hacking the Undo/Redo stuff a little, it mostly works except for the automations, which still need to “commandified”. However, this week are a lot of deadlines and stuff to do for university, therefore I won’t be hacking anything until next week.
Have […]
Hi,
lots of stuff going on this week, mainly due to all the patches by Robin Gareus, who implemented support for the jack audio connection kit. It’s not quite done, but it works very well already. All his changes are in the repo of course.
I’ve started hacking the infrastructure for Undo/Redo support, because I think that’s […]
Hi,
I will be at the Linux Audio Conference for the next days, if you happen to be near karlsruhe feel free to stop by and tell me your exciting ideas for the Open Movie Editor.
Have fun

Hint: I have an “Open Movie Editor” t-shirt.
