Do you know if this version (1.4.3 precise) would run on Slacko 5.3.1
or is there too many differences? not sure if the kernel diffs or other matter Embarassed

hi chekrout,

it likely won't work as i think it contains a precise version of python

however there's a slacko version here http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=75528

No, I tried it in 5.3.1 and it didn't work.

The console output indicated a Python problem, just like 666philb said.

It also won't work in Lucid 5.2.8.

Does this program need Python?

hi andabandsen,

this is for precise puppy only and should work without having to install any more dependencies precise puppy already contains python.

andabandsen,

is this the openshot from the package manager?

try reinstalling the .pet from the first page http://www.mediafire.com/file/wh5hjkb56wfldna/openshot-1.4.3_precise.pet

it contains python-gtk and all the other dependencies.

Nowadays the only tool working well is avidemux for Lucid.
I have just tried open shot reading a video... one second, and it's the crash.
People who include openshot in the distro are saling 'the wind' and the nervous breakdown ! Evil or Very Mad

I Check that again. Dont consider my message until confirmed.

hi pelo,

that's an old version of openshot you've got there!! i'm presuming it's the lucid version? if so then yes that crashes a lot.

i have found the PRECISE version of openshot very stable and very easy to use, and you can couple it up with blender to get some really slick 3D animated text effects. Openshot does require a lot of memory though, so editing on an old clunker may not be ideal Smile

Openshot ToOpPPY goes well (only reading tried).
I hope Puppy will have an editing tool of quality.
Too many are well designed but show failures when used.
I will advise soon.
I Know that my previous post shows an old openshot.
With a computer, photo and video editing are leasures which take a lot of time, and cannot be done on the cloud. Puppies management should take care of these tools.
