[15:19] <pikurasa> I have a 3200x1200 15FPS clip (from a screenrecord) in OGV that I would like to edit in Kden Live--how does this work? When I bring the clip into KdenLive it doesn't seem to be showing the correct frames for the first half of the clip (in the project monitor and clip monitor). Should I change the file with ffmpg before bringing it in? If so, what would be the best way to do that?
[15:19] <pikurasa> Or should I change "clip properties" with Kden?
[15:19] <cfhowlett> pikurasa, will your final form also be 3200x1200?
[15:21] <pikurasa> The final form could be anything, really... I just want to get onto the editing process and pull some stuff together. It could be scaled--preferably with a similar ratio.
[15:21] <cfhowlett> pikurasa, scale it down with avconv then edits
[15:22] <pikurasa> I have never used avconc. Is that command line?
[15:23] <cfhowlett> pikurasa, it is.  avconv -i inputfile -s ****x**** outputfile          -s = output size
[15:23] <pikurasa> @cfhowlett Thanks. Will try now.
[15:24] <pikurasa> What output size would you recommend??
[15:24] <cfhowlett> pikurasa, you could also try resize with kdenlive
[15:53] <pikurasa> [pikurasa is trying things (like avconv), but having troubles...wait, on to something...]
[15:54] <pikurasa> Looks like you right click on the clip and then choose transcode in KdenLive.
[15:56] <pikurasa> What is this option "fix ogg theora"? Quite the provocative title for an operation...
[16:05] <pikurasa> Fix Ogg Theora gets this error -- Unrecognized option 'sameq'.
[16:05] <pikurasa> Error splitting the argument list: Option not found. Am I missing something??
[16:08] <holstein> you are trying to transcode audio? inside kdenlive?
[16:09] <pikurasa> @holstein Yes.
[16:09] <holstein> from what to what? and whats the goal?
[16:11] <pikurasa> I have a 3200x1200 15FPS clip (from a screenrecord) in OGV. Any "normal" format--and preferably in a free format--would be good.
[16:11] <pikurasa> I successfully transcoded to .mov
[16:12] <holstein> i have only ever exported to different formats.. but, ideally, the "freedom" would be considered *before* creation
[16:12] <holstein> maybe, at the source.. if you are just doing it for freedom's sake, so to speak..
[16:12] <pikurasa> the original is OGV
[16:12] <holstein> otherwise, i would go for what give the "Best" results, based on where its going
[16:17] <pikurasa> Basically, I am trying to make demo videos of this project I did with SugarLabs over the summer. It is web based software and I want others to see how it works, so I am making videos. RecordmyDesktop in UbuntuStudio creates files that KDenLive does not import well--the 3200x1200 15FPS OGV output from RecordmyDesktop does not seem to be a clip that KDenLive can use. Therefore, I am trying to change the format.
[16:17] <pikurasa> The "Fix OGV" returned the error I mentioned above.
[16:18] <pikurasa> I am trying Matroska, which seems to be working.
[16:18] <pikurasa> .mov worked.
[16:19] <pikurasa> [I am kind of just "talking out loud" as I work. No need to reply if busy--although, may be entertaining :)  ]
[16:20] <holstein> well, for me, i just use all of the options, and see what works
[16:20] <holstein> im not a video guy, so, i dont even have really the skills to properly troubleshoot the issues..
[16:20] <holstein> i did like kdenlive, though.. and i found it works "best" for what i was doing, at the time
[16:25] <pikurasa> I have no doubt that it works great. I just don't know how to use it... :)
[16:25] <pikurasa> Also, I only know two emoticons :)
[16:46] <pikurasa> I have another idea to get the result I want, but I need all my CPU power to do it. Thanks and Bye!
[16:46] <holstein> pikurasa: good luck..
