Old-Topics: [CinCV] [Announce] Lumiera Developers meeting
Subject: [CinCV] Lumiera / gstreamer
Hi Guys,

naive question (if not already asked here): what would be the pros and
cons to use gstreamer for rendering?

And then a general comment from a person who actually worked in the
industry:
Please don't get carried away with funny effects. The only video
transition which is needed is crossfade (if any). The only audio
transition which is needed is also crossfade (if any). ;-) I really
would love to see an editor which copes with a professional workflow and
is not becoming overloaded with geeky features. I don't need to rotate
and edge detect and whatever. If I want to tell a story then I don't
need all that but I need a reliable program which does very simple
things very reliably. So far all NLEs under Linux do all differnt kinds
of funny effects very well but are not able to sync audio with video or
other basic stuff. Obviously, Linux programmers don't make films (in
terms of scripting, rehearsal, filming). Consequence: Linux NLEs are not
usable for any serious project (which involves actors, story, etc).
