Reverse Engineering / Re: Adobe on Linux?
« on: November 13, 2013, 02:08:25 pm »Its currently impossible to run After Effects or Premiere on Linux properly. Impossible. Don't even try. I wasted enough time on it.
To replace After Effects you could use Blender. Blender has improved a lot recently, and has a very powerful node based compositor that you can use to do compositing instead of AE. If you are not into compositing and want to do more of Motion Graphics stuff, then yes, blender is not optimal; you can use it to do SOME motion graphics, but it just takes 5 times longer to get the same result. So if you want VFX/compositing, then blender can do everything and more then what AE can or will ever do, but if you want motion graphics you are stuck with win/mac.
As far as premiere is concerned, take a look at Lightworks. lwks.com
Linux release should be coming soon.
Yeah, i have a little experience in blender, and it is a great software, but i work with motion graphics and i would take much more time to do the things i do in After effects, but thanks anyway
Dunno if OP will come back here, but I'll leave this info anyways:
Jahshaka changed its name to Cinefx: http://sourceforge.net/projects/cinefx/
Also, Avidemux: http://avidemux.sourceforge.net/index.html
Also, Wax: http://www.debugmode.com/wax/
i'll try those options to see if they could help, thanks
