!!! I am writing with google translation !!!

  Via DVD reader (No HDD, No SSD)
I use TCL in iso format,

  To avoid consuming much space on RAM,
It needs to be packaged in TCZ format.

  Please; * archive the .tcz package,
Thank you in advance for everything.

Once you have downloaded and extracted shotcut, you just need a one line command to make a tcz:
Code: [Select]
$ tce-load -i squashfs-tools
$ mksquashfs /shotcut_extracted_archive shotcut.tcz

shotcut extension posted

Hello Juanito

I've been testing Shotcut extension for a couple days and there's an issue - it doesn't export video.
As a long term Shotcut user I know it's using melt/qmelt or melt-7 for exporting video as a sub process.
In the extension when trying to export it mentions the path 
Code: [Select]
/tmp/tcloop/shotcut/usr/local/bin/qmelt"qmelt" doesn't exists there but "melt" does. But there's another issue - when I try to run:
Code: [Select]
/tmp/tcloop/shotcut/usr/local/bin/melt -verbose -progress2 -abort /tmp/shotcut-FKUpae.mlt?multi:1(this is what shotcut runs when exporting the video) it works however only audio is being encoded while video is not
available. So the next thing I did was downloading exactly the 19.08.16 version (the one mentioned in the .info file)
and run it locally - when I do that I still need to run melt manually because the paths are not getting resolved automatically
but in that case I'm able to encode both audio and video.

Assumption on what may go wrong:
1. Probably there's something wrong with resolving the paths
2. qmelt is probably getting dropped after creating an extension (btw when I did
Code: [Select]
mksquashfs Shotcut/ shotcut.tcz and then installed the issues are still there)
3. Whatever melt/qmelt when trying to encode video being exported by shotcut.tcz doesn't contatin any video stream

I'm not complaining at any point, just sharing my research.
Again, the workaround is to download 19.08.16 shotcut and
when exporting run qmelt manually and then it works like a charm.

I won’t be able to look at this for a few days, but I’d guess shotcut doesn’t like to follow symlinks?

Could you try loading the shotcut extension with copy2fs set?

From my build notes it doesn’t look like qmelt was compiled at all - I’ll try to look at this in a few days time.

@cmk

Thank you very much! I started a project and spend a significant amount of time working on it but when it was time for me to export I ended up stressed out due the export the file issue, but your solution popped up in the results and it worked!!!!

Besides that, the newer versions of Shotcut don't even run, FYI.
