Hi humans, AIs and others.

I've been playing with transmegeddon. It doesn't seem to work at all. I can open an avi video file but, if I open anything else, it crashes. Once I've set it up to convert the avi to say an ogm, it sits there doing nothing.

It's GTK3, that's the way it is supposed to work! And it carries the name of the cousin of an extinct animal, so that's an omen! And megalodons on youtube come in mp4, no wonder you can't fit them in omg ;)

...

Can someone else check it out?

Would love to, but that piece of software does not agree with my devuan system, sorry. BTW, "ffmpeg -i infile.avi outfie.mp4" would not do what you want?

Thanks

You crazy kid.

I have other apps I use for conversion plus bash (bash is your friend) scripts I have assimilated and modified. I was just curious because it seemed very versatile.

Perhaps I'm jump down the dependency rabbit hole and try to built it from source.

Who's crazy now right?

Cheers Nik,

Kate

Seems development stopped in 2014. Not that I am against "old" software but in multimedia that often means problems. I was able to install from repositories on Stretch. Starting it from cli I tried a conversion. An empty file was created but I got this in konsole:

So the problem is comming from gstreamer it seems.

I use avidemux or handbrake for this sort of stuff.

Hi Ho Thierry

Aye, got some of the same errors. I didn't know devel stopped at 2014. Like you, I use avidemux/handbrake & CLI for encoding/transcoding. It just seemed like such a kool app. But, like Crazy Nik said, it's a GTK app (how rude). No sense in wasting time over a dead app... not that I ever do... 0_o

Thanks to all,

Kate
