Thanks again - all seems to be working well now.
A quick question - now that I've built it, do I need to keep the files from the "build" directory (other than the celestia executable itself of course)?

Thank You JVV!
I just got Celestia-SPICE installed on my Leap 42.2 system! As well as SPICE, I had to install qmake from the Build Service, but after that, compilation and installation of Celestia went without a hitch. Everything is so much crisper and snappier, even though I was devoting about 80% of RAM to Virtu...

Re: Celestia 1.6.1 on Linux has no codec options
I've been using Lagarith which came bundled in a codec pack. I did a bit of research, and, according to one technical review, it was the only one of those tested that was genuinely lossless. Filesize has not been a problem yet, and if necessary, I can stitch videos together with Avidemux. I think I'...

Celestia 1.6.1 on Linux has no codec options
I just managed to get Celestia installed in OpenSuse - I have previously, been using the Windows version in a VirtualBox. However, when I went to record a video, there were no codec or container options - only Theora in an .ogg container. I'm using Celestia to make backgrounds for a video, so I real...

Video Capture of CELX script Not Syncing
Greetings fellow Celestia lovers. Background (skip if you like): I am a noob when it comes to Celestia scripting, but I'm reasonably familiar with Celestia, and very conversant with other scripting languages - especially javascript, so the syntax and OOP side of things are not a problem for me. Gett...
