Jason,<br><br>Yes, and my problems are when usign ELAN on Ubuntu as well. And with the video.<br><br>I haven't myself gotten around to fixing the problem on my laptop (as Adam suggested, i decicded to sell a part of my soul and use ELAN on the office PCs when needed)... However, I have been told that if you download an OLDER version of ELAN, then it works with Ubuntu... and what you say about "it used to work but doesn't any more" would seem to match that scenario...<br>

I had it working on Ubuntu about 4 years ago, but something changed
and the video stopped displaying. After that, I've never been able
to get it going again. If you know of any good setup guides can you
let me know?<br><font color="#888888">

<div>I'd LOVE to use Elan more ... when I can
get it to work, I love it. But the learning
curve and I are not on good terms. Is there
a SLLing-L Elan support group in the

<pre>Hi. I was wondering what software people prefer for coding and/or transcribing videos of sign language. I know every program has its pros and cons.
