Description Pavel Fric 2015-01-10 15:20:49 CET

http://sourceforge.net/projects/qstopmotion/

The users will be able to create stop-motions from pictures imported from a camera or from the harddrive and export the animation to different video formats such as mpeg or avi.

qStopMotion is a fork of stopmotion for Linux. The main differences between stopmotion for Linux and qStopMotion are:

    Run on Linux and Windows operating systems. And probably also on MacOS,
    Redesigned user interface,
    Minimized using of external tools and replace with Qt functionality,
    No command line input from the user in the preferences menu.

No Czech translation yet? Come on Pavel :-D

Comment 3 Rémi Verschelde 2015-01-11 19:46:08 CET

Here is my package:
SRPM: http://remi.verschelde.fr/files/packages/mga5/qstopmotion-2.0.0-1.mga5.src.rpm
x86_64 RPM: http://remi.verschelde.fr/files/packages/mga5/qstopmotion-2.0.0-1.mga5.x86_64.rpm

I've played around with the software and I find it quite buggy, it sometimes segfaults if you did not preload newly imported images in memory (at least that's what it looks like), and it has two settings windows with the same parameters, but independent from one another, so it's quite difficult to set the parameters that will be used for the video.

Some of those issues are pretty obvious IMO, and since upstream announced a "beta release" two days before they published the apparent final 2.0.0 release, I guess it wasn't that well tested yet. I'll wait for a 2.0.1 or 2.1.0 release before I import it for Mageia 5 (or 6) :-)

Comment 4 Rémi Verschelde 2015-06-08 15:17:26 CEST

For the reference, it looks like they only uploaded the 2.0.0 source in April 2015 [1], so it might different from the source tarball used in my SRPM.

Comment 5 Rémi Verschelde 2015-06-08 15:20:10 CEST

Unassigning myself as I'm not actively working on it right now. There is a SRPM in comment 3 though if anyone wants to continue (I might come back to it later when the project has a new update).
