When rendering a HDV video to the H264 format media-libs/x264-svn-20070924
crashes with error:"x264 [error]: no ratecontrol method specified". Using
version media-libs/x264-svn-20061014-r1 gives no crashes/errors.
Cinelerra-cvs: media-video/cinelerra-cvs-20080115
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. load hdv video in media-video/cinelerra-cvs-20080115
2. render video to Quicktime for Linux, H.264
3. results in error: x264 [error]: no ratecontrol method specified
media-libs/x264-svn has been changed and is now expecting a value for rate
control and crashes if none is given (see changelog from x264). Not all
programs (like Cinelerra) do provide these options. Although it is actually a
bug in cinelerra, the change in x264 makes the system fail.
Please make older version of x264 version (20061014-r1) available again and
mask current, until main video programs (like cinelerra) are fixed.

this sounds contradictory :)
I've comitted a new snapshot with a patch to use the old default of x264 for
the ratecontrol method until cinelerra has the ability to set it via the gui.
Thanks for the report !
