Infoseite // Is Linux suitable for semi-professional / professional use?



Frage von Roddie:


Quick question:

Who has experience with Linux in the semi-professional / professional area for video editing as an online / video journalist? If necessary. synonymous for occasional short films?

Or was there a cheaper used software / used Mac useful?

Hi,
In my experience, available for Linux in the consumer area of "useful" software only "Blender". Movies, Yashaka and the rest of them, I was not convinced. And "Blender" is actually more of a 3D animation software as an editing program (if possible synonymous with it).
I got away from the base of Linux (synonymous when I'm basically a fan of Open Source Software).
Greetings!

Antwort von domain:

A very general problem of open-source software in the professional field is that there is often no contact person and really is not responsible for problems. Therefore, actually only in the amateur for "hobbyists" to recommend conditional, where it is irrelevant to reliability and productivity.

Where nothing has come out nothing ... Linux is completely useless for anything that has to do with moving images. It begins with the absence of certain codecs and and listened to the uniqueness of the few available software to ... Hands off! Waste of time.

Although there are always promising software projects for video editing, all previously existing solutions are not fully satisfactory.
Only Kdenlive I can recommend - after all, here is the level of an entry-level software achieved. Both features can be as synonymous stability for simple projects nothing to be desired. In Kdenlive should the current version can be used - this is not part of your distribution, but must be obtained from the description on http://www.kdenlive.org/.

You obviously do not even use Linux in! Especially the ffmpeg codecs to Linux by the package (libavformat and libavcodecs) completely covered. Linux software is not synonymous "odd" or poorly available. It is also true that many projects in the field of vision had its origins in Linux and only later ported to Windows. Especially the media player VLC is a prominent example - just as the popular codecs ffdshow or graphic editing software Gimp.

Not true. Any open-source project has mailing lists, where each questioner will be helped quickly and professionally. In most cases you'll find there synonymous already the answer to individual problems. Also, bugs in the software are fixed quickly and easily.
Just because many of you are Windows user and are familiar with Linux, at best, only superficially, one has still not teach other people with half knowledge.

Antwort von Bernd E.:

For professional video editing I would not consider Linux as a viable alternative synonymous with Mac OS X or Windows, but maybe yes for this project at some times when something:

Until further notice, however, it is in their own words for "Developers and highly adventurous users" suitable. The path to professional suitability should therefore be very long.

Why refer to a hopeless project, if there is already Kdenlive? The software is completely usable and one can very well work with it well.

Antwort von B.DeKid:

LINUX-based systems only make sense if you can spend time / may. So I would first buy a Windows-based calculator and as a Magix Video Progi.

On NEN older Calculator I would then incorporate the Linux install components and to incorporate me.

I'm a long time ago mostly for the Linux Progis find scripts / render used, but almost always to "test machines."

If my answer is a clear: Jaein - to your question.

So yes, you confirm exactly what I said. For professionals this approach is the question. Not uncommon for designers of all NLE editing systems including hardware together and maybe even supplied with loss of production insurance. If it does not work, you have at least one principal officer and must start tinkering yourself.

Antwort von B.DeKid:

@ Domain

This includes the synonymous Rosa giant? I think you want to know how it is not at all because if you call once because ne needs a dedicated line not funzzt ;-))

Furthermore, the way you just described is not always the case when the hardware may well still be so is not in the software but 90% Sun

Since you will be with so statements such as ".... they have installed the latest update already .... they have deleted the temp files .... etc" abgespeisst.

So the argument can be counted is limited.

Nevertheless, I am of the opinion that Linux synonymous in each area of video processing is almost irrelevant just because the majority of companies on the back have proven what works.

Does not the Linux-based applications make sense.

ProRes? DVCPro? BMD? AJA? Avid? AVCHDPro? P2? How should an aspiring photojournalist who constantly gets encoded in such materials down on the table to work properly? ffmpeg may indeed help much, but it is far from being proprietary, commercial codecs now synonymous offer on Linux. It may well be that one or the other can still play, but then we come to the next point, metadata and workflow integration. Your argument revolves s.dem latest point in a circle, because all is lost or incompatible with other systems. Sorry, Linux is beyond special pre-configured storage systems largely useless for professional video editing. And come to me with non-GIMP ... Most of the ex-GIMP user, I Kenen and are switched to Photoshop, GIMP would never touch again ...

Yes, precisely. Why would anyone do that in Avid or Apple Pro Resellers can buy an all-round carefree package? And I do not really synonymous, that mailing lists and forums are an adequate support system for software which has the ambition to compete with years of mature commercial products. Time nerves apart from the ugly little wars of the open source scene and the resulting mutual self-destruction already huge. I gain nothing at all, if a feature does not one day more, just because a project has left a coder in the dispute and no one else does. As such, it is doomed many projects are still stuck at version 0.1 ... I think it is synonymous questionable, bring the user to a permanent beta tester in position. Otherwise it ultimately when the "bugs are fixed very fast times." Far too much trouble for ordinary users ... Yes and clear - what happens when the MPEG LA's views suddenly changed his mind and wants to see Money? What if changing the licensing conditions for Qt, KDE and other libraries? What if the hardware manufacturer does not contribute more drivers? There are so many uncertainties, this is simply for someone with his work must earn money, no alternative ...

Antwort von jwd96:

In terms of video Linux is not necessarily the best, but in the 3D area is very popular (Maya) Maya many can run on Linux, because Linux is definitely safer, less vulnerable and above all free.

- DVCPro - Yes.
- Avid DNxHD - Yes.
- AVCHD (Pro) - Yes.
- XDCAM EX / HD - Yes.
- P2 (AVC-Intra) - No.
- ProRes and Co. - No, but that's does not synonymous to the "professional" work.

I've written here above:

In this respect, are you running with your argument with me an open door. You just should not demonize Linux synonymous same.

This is primarily a question of budget and not the personal preferences. Those who can not afford Photoshop and want to give up stolen software, has a good alternative. I personally like Gimp very happy and even put it on Windows and MacOS X, although we have synonymous Photoshop.

Antwort von Roddie:

Thank you for the many responses that provide a good opinion. I will probably rely on used Windows software. Have a nice weekend yet :-)
