I'm trying to install Openshot 1.1.3. from source on Mandriva 2010. I don't understand what else I should do apart from the command "sudo python setup.py install", but clearly this isn't enough, because I get the following error message:
Error: invalid Python installation: unable to open /usr/lib/python2.6/config/Makefile (No such file or directory)
I've put the tarball at /usr/share/openshot-1.1.3. According to Software Management, I have python2.6 installed (and the other dependencies mentioned in the README), but what do I know. (I tried using an RPM file from rpm.pbone.net [URL], but that didn't work out either, I don't know whether this is the easier route or not.)

Does anybody use openshot in Slackware 13? What I made: I modified the slackbuild script for openshot of Slackbuilds.org for version 1.1.1 and then I made the package and installed it. Of course the dependencies too. But when I start Openshot, I get the following error:
OpenShot (version 1.1.1)
Error: OpenShot has not been installed in the Python path.
(Both the site-packages and /usr/share/openshot folders were checked)
Use the following command to install OpenShot:
$ sudo python setup.py install

How do I set the PYTHONPATH for the root user only? Or at least add to the python path for the root user? I need to read from the /var/log/apache2/access.log in my python script, so I need to use sudo for my script to be able to read from it.I tried setting the PYTHONPATH in /root/.bashrc but that didn't work. I don't want to use a .pth file because I don't want the directory to be on the path for all users due to import collisions.

On Ubuntu 9.10 I installed Python 3.1.1 successfully with Synaptic Package Manager. However the Python interpreter cannot find my scripts, currently in /home/dave/pycode. This appends _temporarily_ but python remains clueless about location of my scripts. Searched Internet and some speak of .rc or .bashrc or .profile..files. Found some of these and opened with Komodo : they are Linux script files and I am clueless as to how to modify.Currently I can import my scripts only if I change to the /pycode dir before running.Lutz's Python book says to change PATH file - Ha .Sobell's "A practical Guide to Ubuntu Linux" is no help. Ubuntu's own on line help is worth less than a fart in a hurricane. Ubuntu's gedit would not even open bash.bashrc.

I wrote a shell script but i now want to do this in python, as thats the preferred method where i work. anyway does anyone know how to specify directory paths for example the maillogs exist in /var/log so i want the script to go to that directory would LOG_DIR="/var/log/" work?

I have been trying to install the NumPy package for Python on to my home directory, as I run as part of a server and do not have permissions to install new packages in the Linux server.
I have set up Python in my home directory, and have configured ~/.bash_profile to find my local Python (which works, confirmed by testing).
However, when I attempt to install the NumPy package, I get the message error: could not create '/usr/local/lib/python2.6': Permission denied Which I find strange because I do not see why it would need to install files anywhere except my local Python directory.
how I might be able to specify the directory in which files are installed?

I installed openshot, looks like it will have everything I need, but I can't get my clips on the timeline track. I can import my files no problem, they all show up in the preview pane, but when I drag them to the timeline track the don't add. I am running ubuntu 9.10, I installed openshot following the instructions on the openshot webpage.

I eventually did buy a Terra HD from Zareason that I love, but I cannot get it to do my video editing of Flip Mino home videos. I know the machine is capable. It plays bigger AVI files without any problem. For sound it uses the Realtek chipset. Samples of the .avi Flip Mino videos are here. A nice short one for experimenting with is 2.3 MB, here. According to Avidemux, the Flip Mino videos have the following video properties...
Codec 4CC: XVID
Image Size: 640 x 480
Aspect Ratio: 1:1 (1:1)
Frame Rate: 30.000 fps
and the following audio properties...
Codec: MSADPCM
Channels: Mono
Bitrate: 22179 Bps / 177 kbps
Variable Bitrate: No
Frequency: 44100 Hz
My goal is simply to trim the beginning and end to get the best segment in each home movie. Avidemux worked great on my old machine as long as I changed the output audio format to MP3(LAME). But Avidemux is not working and wants to know all sorts of things about devices of which I am ignorant. The default settings must be wrong since the audio playback is choppy and usually the video saves to a one-frame broken file.
I also tried Openshot and it has no device preference issues. However, I am ignorant of how to make it save the videos properly. It wants to "export" the video using all sorts of options, none of which are simply "use the setting for the only track". Based on the 640x480 size I tried some Square NTSC tests but the exported file was always much too big -- usually larger than the untrimmed original!
Also, Openshot appears to lack a keyboard shortcut or button for "move the beginning or end of the clip back or forwards one frame". Is it really expecting me to use the mouse to position the clip's borders precisely? I have no vested interest in which software is used. Nor do I care about the resulting file format as long as it is neither wastefully large nor senselessly abandoning quality. I just want to share my home movies with friends and family.

Although I am an obsessed Ubuntu user, I am also a realist. When I have to give a presentation, I often have to use someone else's computer, and that system invariably runs windows. So when presenting via Powerpoint with embedded video on a default windows install, I need to be certain that the video format will play correctly. It is hard to convince windows users that Ubuntu is better if your videos/slides/documents etc don't play nice with their setups.
I have used kdenlive before (on OpenSuse) and it has a wmv export profile which works, but I was really hoping to sort this out using Ubuntu.
export settings or profiles in OpenShot that will definitely work for me??
I know that Openoffice Impress on Ubuntu plays every format I've ever tried flawlessly -- but when you give a talk somewhere you are often using someone else's computer and it is usually windows

I have recorded some video, and now wanted to add some sound.I added a sound track, but when it's playing, I can't hear anything.I'm usually running Jack - for Ardour/Hydrogen etc... - I can't find anywhere in OpenShot to change the Audio to Jack, so assume it's not supported.I have killed Jack in the hope that Alsa will work with OpenShot, but still I have no sound.

I've been using gtk record my desktop, which does a very good job and records nicely as a .ogv. The problem is, the Openshot editor doesn't appear to support .ogv files, which means I have to find some way of converting the .ovg to something Openshot can use. Having used both Pitivi and Arista to re-encode the file, I find the picture quality suffers some substantial loss by becoming noisy.
So, can anyone suggest:
1. A way to get Openshot to recognise .ogv files natively? or,
2. Suggest another screencast program that records to a high quality file that Openshot understands? or,
3. Suggest a video editing program that can open and work with .ogv files, allowing the addition of music and titles (text), and then save to a high quality file like mp4?

I have a video - taken on my mobile phone. In totem, I get sound and video: lovely. However, in Openshot I don't get sounds, and in WinFF it tells me "Unsupported codec (id=7372" for the audio stream. Why, when both are using FFMpeg do the installed codecs work differently in different programs?

I've been using OpenShot before with no problems at all, I then formatted and Dual booted Windows 7 and Ubuntu 10.10 and now I have a little problem. I've downloaded and installed OpenShot 1.2 via Software Center and installed LAME Mp3 codec via Terminal
Code:
sudo apt-get install lame
Everytime I try to export a video I've created in OpenShot I get this message.
"The following formats/codecs are missing from your system:
libmp3lame. You will not be able to use the selected export profile. You will need to install the missing formats/codecs or choose a different export profile."
I checked the codec in OpenShot and it's missing, I opened Synaptic to search "lame" and sure enough, it's installed version 3.98 so I tried reinstalling lame mp3 via Synaptic and still no audio codec is there in OpenShot when I click Refresh Codec. I have now tried reinstalling OpenShot with the codec already installed and still nothing, as well as uninstalling both, restarting the computer.
And then installing codec then OpenShot and vice versa for installation and STILL nothing is happening. I googled OpenShot LAME Mp3 codec problems and I can't find a single thing. OpenShot was working flawless before I dual booted and now it wont work at all, every single video format I can use, it's telling me I need the codec for it, which I have but OpenShot tells me I don't.

my goal is to record video using a canon powershot camera, edit the avi file on my ubuntu 10.04 computer, then upload the rendered file to videos.
problem is that when i cut the video, the audio is no longer in sync with the video, it's off by about 1-2 seconds. this happens with both openshot and pitivi, so i suspect that it's caused by a bug with the codec. (files are avi with mjpeg codec). after searching launchpad, this is apparently a "known issue". that's great but for now i need a workaround.
i do have an old g4 powerbook with imovie hd v6 on it that i can use, but i'd prefer not to because:
1. the powerpc mac is much slower than my new dual core laptop
2. imovie compresses my videos too much so the rendered file is lower quality
3. i simply prefer openshot to imovie
i was thinking of preprocessing my avi files by converting them to another format with a non-buggy codec on linux. i downloaded ffmpeg, but not sure how to use it and what format to use. would mpeg2 be a safe one to use?

Found a weird issue with Openshot video editor ( Gnome, squeeze amd64 ) version 1.1.3-1 ( stable ) but it also applies after upgrading to version 1.3.0-1.1 ( from sid ).
After starting Openshot there are icons ( and tabs ) missing on the toolbar :

I was having some trouble trying to get video editing directly with Theora OGVs on Ubuntu 10.04. To be honest, the default Lucid video editor Pitivi (which is a front-end for gstreamer) actually works fine with ogv - but you cannot do video overlays (compositing) in Pitivi. So I looked at Cinelerra, LiVES, OpenShot and Kdenlive as editors that may offer overlays/compositing. They can all be sudo apt-get install-ed, but none of them wanted to run properly with ogvs - especially the ogv video preview didn't work. Looking for a solution, the following bugs came up:
Bug #574457 in mlt (Ubuntu): �melt displays and renders garbage while playing .ogv in ubuntu 10.04�
Bug #535018 in openshot (Ubuntu): �Openshot cannot playback ogg video�
Bug #566781 in OpenShot Video Editor: �Imported Ogg Theora file shows corrupted video in OpenShot 1.1.3�
[code].....
However, since it doesn't seem a bugfix will be released for Lucid - that pretty much means only one thing, if we want video editing of ogv in Lucid: build from source. If we build all dependencies for Theora ogv video from the latest source: melt
ffmpeg
vorbis
theora
ogg
then, in principle, working with ogv in Openshot and/or Kdenlive should (and does) work - if these video editors are directed to use these new binaries (built from source). Note that Openshot is basically a python frontend for melt, and it does not need compiling as such (though some precautions should be taken, see below) - so once the above sources are built, a test with Openshot can be done. I used for building these sources is HOWTO: Install and use the latest FFmpeg and x264 - Ubuntu Forums This HOWTO uses checkinstall in order to generate .deb packages from source, which are then installed into the running OS, to allow for satisfying of dependencies. I'd like to keep my system 'vanilla' clean, and experiment with sources outside of my system (i.e. as in a "portable installation") - and this post outlines that approach.
Basically, we download the sources, and build them in order of dependency - and since ogg/vorbis/theora source already uses it, we can use pkg-config to configure some other source dependencies as well: by writing *-uninstalled.pc files in respective source directories; and then adding these directories to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable. However, some manual changes to source files will be needed too. Finally, for each source package, we will run only 'make', but not 'make install' - and then in the end, we will collect all binaries (libraries and executables) in a single folder; and add a couple of scripts, that will setup an environment referring to these binaries, so that Openshot/Kdenlive (when called from this environment) may work correctly with ogv. The full list of sources built using this approach are: ogg
vorbis
theora
[code]....
Both x264, and libvpx (for VP8/WebM), have been added as recommended in the HOWTO; while Ogg Video Tools are added mostly for the (relatively new) tool oggTranscode. The approach to building these sources is given below, in the form of a commented bash script - since its quite big, it is included in the reply to this post.

I ran into this bug: [URL]...I checked that overwrite-local was set to 1. So I want to delete all python packages that were installed by checkinstall with the /usr prefix.
Now it has been some time since I did this and I dont really remember. Does anyone using checkinstall know how to spot packages installed via checkinstall? I already checked the FAQ and doc of checkinstall, but no info on this.

This borders on stackoverflow/superuser, but I guess it's a simple installation problem.I've installed python-twisted on my ubuntu 10.04 server, but it can't be found.This is what I get when I try to import something:
>>> from twisted.internet import reactor
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in [code]....
I've installed the package through apt-get.That way the module is installed in this folder: /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/twisted with an __init__.py file.When I try to use python setup.py install (on the download from the site) it installs it to /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/twisted, but it also does not find it there.

I have a package (mlt-python to be exact) which can be found here: [URL]...ent/x86_64/os/ and it requires python 2.6. When I try to install it with yum, I get this error:

So Apparently I have python 2.7 and it needs python 2.6. Great. Is there a package that fakes python-2.6 and install anything?
