I have a old D100 and would like to make a comparsation for nightshots between my camera and "newst technology".<br><br>By the way: Are there efforts to make kdenlive more stable? I think its a very useful app and has the biggest potential to become the future standard app for video editing. <br><br>Roland<br><br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;">----- Ursprüngliche Mail ----<br>Von: Florian Cramer <fc-kdenlive@plaintext.cc><br>An: For kdenlive developers <kdenlive-devel@lists.sourceforge.net><br>Gesendet: Sonntag, den 23.

There are just a few caveats:<br><br>- Have you made sure that you installed the community version,<br> <a href="http://cv.cinelerra.org" target="_blank">http://cv.cinelerra.org</a> ("Cinelerra CV" - some people wrongly think
it<br> stands for an unstable CVS version)? The community version is<br> sufficiently stable (crashes occasionally, but less so than kdenlive)<br> and has a cleaned-up interface.<br><br>- Have you read the Cinelerra CV manual? It is actually a very good<br> documentation: <a href="http://cv.cinelerra.org/docs.php" target="_blank">http://cv.cinelerra.org/docs.php</a> . To get started,<br> read Rob Fisher's quick Cinelerra tutorial:<br> <a href="http://www.robfisher.net/video/cinelerra1.html" target="_blank">http://www.robfisher.net/video/cinelerra1.html</a> <br> In short, it is essential to have understood the concepts of<br> armed/disarmed tracks, copy-paste vs. drag-and-drop editing, the<br> difference between previewer and compositor, the function of gang<br> faders and key frames to use the program. It has a high initial<br> learning curve (similar, although not quite as
high, to vi or Emacs),<br> but is actually an efficient and powerful editing tool.<br><br>- Cinelerra's strength for something like the Ken Burns effects lies in<br> its fully integrated compositing, particularly in the concept of the<br> "virtual camera" and the "virtual projector" in conjunction with key<br> framing <br>
<<a href="http://cv.cinelerra.org/docs/split_manual_en/cinelerra_cv_manual_en_8.html#SEC129" target="_blank">http://cv.cinelerra.org/docs/split_manual_en/cinelerra_cv_manual_en_8.html#SEC129</a>>.<br> You can drop an image to the editing timeline, adjust its handles for<br> the desired running time, set a key frame at the beginning and then
go<br> into the virtual camera settings of the compositor window, set a zoom<br> factor and the part of the image you want to be visible; then you set<br> a second key frame at the end, and adjust the camera settings a
second<br> time (for example, with the same zoom factor, but with a different<br> visible part of the image). As a result, Cinelerra creates a smooth<br> virtual camera pan (and, possibly zoom) between the two selected
parts<br> of the image. By setting additional key frames, you can create even<br> more complex pans/zooms in the image. <br><br>Here is a sample video I created in five minutes using the image<br><a href="http://www.dcresource.com/reviews/nikon/d300-review/nightshot.jpg" target="_blank">http://www.dcresource.com/reviews/nikon/d300-review/nightshot.jpg</a>,<br>Cinelerra for editing/compositing, and ffmpeg for encoding from
