hi,

today mainconcepts released its video editing software MainActor for Linux ...

As we are speking about GUI's and necessary compontents, we should also take a 
look, what the others do:

http://www.mainconcept.com/mainactor_v5.shtml#linux

Its for now in a preview version and can be downloaded ...

Its for an SuSE Linux 8.2 / Mandrake 9.1 System and has as major dependancy 
qt3.1.1 ...

On Systems, where qt3 is splitted to plugins it seems necessary to do:

export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/qt3/plugins/styles/libqwindowsstyle.so
(Repeat for echt plugin that is expected to be in the binary or recompile 
libqt3 from source with threads)

(Thats the case on debian-based systems for example)

Another major dependancy is Pentium III / Athlon with 700 Mhz. (They use 
sse2/mmx2 optimized code for the codecs)

However with deleting or renaming libmcdvd_32.so it was possible to start it, 
with just an AMD K6 II and one can still get an impression how the program 
works ... (DnD and context-menu seem to be two major parts of the ui-design)

I'm just telling you, so that MPlayer G2 and its guis can compete with 
commercial projects :-).

A'rpi, what would be nice was, if you could give a small status report about 
what is finished and what still needs to be done. (Somewhat more detailed 
than the TODO-List) ... Was just an idea :-)
