<p />
When Cinelerra saves a file it saves an edit decision list of the current project but doesn't save any media. Go to File-&gt;save as.... Select a file to overwrite or enter a new file. Cinelerra automatically concatenates .xml to the filename if no .xml extension is given.
<p />
The saved file contains all the project settings and locations of every edit but instead of media it contains pointers to the original media files on disk.
<p />
For each media file the XML file stores either an absolute path or just the relative path. If the media is in the same directory as the XML file a relative path is saved. If it's in a different directory an absolute path is saved.
<p />
In order to move XML files around without breaking the media linkages you either need to keep the media in the same directory as XML file forever or save the XML file in a different directory than the media and not move the media ever again.
<p />
If you want to create an audio playlist and burn it on CD-ROM, save the XML file in the same directory as the audio files and burn the entire directory. This keeps the media paths relative.
<p />
XML files are useful for saving the current state before going to sleep and saving audio playlists but they're limited in that they're specific to Cinelerra. You can't play XML files in a dedicated movie player. Realtime effects in an XML file have to be resynthesized every time you play it back. The XML file also requires you to maintain copies of all the source assets on hard drives.
For a more persistent storage of the output there's rendering.
