ok well i downloaded the tar.gz that the link you gave leads to

Save it to the Desktop

You can then run:

cd ~/Desktop; tar zxvf t@b_zweistein_linux.tar.gz; ./t@b_zweistein_linux_mepis32_0703161351; cd ~/tmp/t@b/3362226

You can now try to run:

./INSTALL.sh

however I attempted this and got:

andy@fileserver:~/tmp/t@b/3362226$ ./INSTALL.sh
export: 9: LD./menco: bad variable name

If you get this then have a read of the readme to see what is needed to be installed to get this running.

Have you considered kino / avidemux etc. There are lots of video editting softwares in the repos. Have you tried those?

Hope this helps

It wouldn't work:
jorge@jorge-laptop:~$ cd ~/Desktop; tar zxvf t@b_zweistein_linux.tar.gz; ./t@b_zweistein_linux_mepis32_0703161351; cd ~/tmp/t@b/3362226
t@b_zweistein_linux_mepis32_0703161351
./t@b_zweistein_linux_mepis32_0703161351: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
bash: cd: /home/jorge/tmp/t@b/3362226: No such file or directory
Also I just need a free software that will allow me to use greenscreens

you need to install a library as you are missing a file:

error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I think this will sort you out:

sudo apt-get install libstdc++6

If the rerun of the command:

./t@b_zweistein_linux_mepis32_0703161351

gives the same error then you will have to get websearching to find out what command gives the file. Or you can make the system search but it takes a LONG while

sudo apt-get install apt-file; sudo apt-file update; sudo apt-file search libstdc++.so.5

Will search EVERY package for EVERY file and try to find libstdc++.so.5. This will take a while.

Your call but you need the libstdc++.so.5 file on your system.

libstdc++.so.5 is provided by the libstdc++5 package which you should be able to get by running

sudo apt-get install libstdc++5

Personally, I would also consider actionparsnip's original suggestion of checking out some of the video editing software in the repository. This program you are trying to install is closed source and, from the look of their forums, seems to have a number of problems in both Windows and Linux. From experience, I know that kino and the others are the easiest programs to work with, but I'm guessing that they are going to be more stable than the software you are trying to download.

Heh.

"From experience, I know that kino and the others are the easiest programs to work with, but I'm guessing that they are going to be more stable than the software you are trying to download."

That was supposed to be:

From experience, I know that kino and the others are _NOT_ the easiest programs to work with, but I'm guessing that they are going to be more stable than the software you are trying to download.

Sorry for any confusion. :-)

NYGFan, If it was already istalled, the system wouldnt be complaining its not there. You can scan your system for the file using:

sudo find / -name libstdc++.so.5

but I doubt it will find anything. You need to install the right packae to get the file, the package I suggested was only my best guess.

I just tried installing ZS4 and also got the following error message:
export: 9: LD./menco: bad variable name

I was able to get it to install by editing INSTALL.sh and then running it again. It installed to ~/t@b/0.958/bin/686/release/ and you can run it with zweistein.sh. Here's my edited INSTALL.sh:

#! /bin/sh

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}

chmod 755 *.sh
chmod 755 *.so
chmod 755 ./setup
./setup $1 $2 $3 $4 $5 $6 $7 $8 $9 ${10} ${11} ${12} ${13} ${14} ${15} ${16} ${17} ${18} ${19} ${20} ${21} ${22} ${23} ${24}

Can you help with this problem?
