Hi! I just purchased Ardour from official website. And installed correctly via downloaded package.
I have currently a problem with opening Video Monitor in both Linux and MacOS. Option is grayed out on both systems.

On macOS have you installed Jadeo (the video monitor, comes with the Arodur .dmg) in /Applications/
?
As for GNU/Linux, do you use the official Ardour binary from Download Ardour | Ardour Community ?
Also have you imported a video? Ardour Menu > Session > Open Video?
OK then, Menu > Window > Video Monitor to show it, after that you should be able to change the View settings.
I didn’t. But I just reopened .dmg and moved Jadeo to Applications. Opened Jadeo and left it running in the background, then reopened Ardour. And still no Video Monitor option (same as the original screenshot in the post).
Ardour will run jadeo on demand. There is an option when importing the video, and later you can use Window > Video Monitor
Let me show you Linux Fedora first.
Do I have to enable Video Server? I read about it somewhere while searching the web.
The video server is already running. It provides thumbnails for the timeline
Odd though that Window > Video Monitor is insensitive. Is there any thing in Window > Log?

PS. Does it work on macOS (after closing the manually started Jadeo instance)?
Yes, just checked - MacOS works just fine after Jadeo was added. I just had to completely close Ardour and reopen the video. Fedora however, still not working.
OK, on Fedora, can you open a Terminal Window and run
/opt/Ardour-8.6.0/bin/xjremote --version
and then try also
/opt/Ardour-8.6.0/bin/xjremote
Does that show a Window?
Apologies. I am not very experienced with Linux. I can share a screenshot from my Terminal.
I tried the commends you posted.
Ah. For some reason your system does not support openGL.
Is there a packae libgl1
(or similar) that you can install using the fedora package manager?
When I type sudo dnf install:
No match for argument: libgl1
Error: Unable to find a match: libgl1
apparently now part of libglvnd-glx
try installing that.
Looks like I already have it.
Package libglvnd-glx-1:1.7.0-4.fc40.x86_64 is already installed.
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!
oops my bad it’s libGLU – so
https://www.reddit.com/r/Fedora/comments/ly3uj5/how_to_fix_libgluso1_not_found_error_on_fedora/
so
dnf install mesa-libGLU
On Debian both libGL and libGLU come with the same package libgl1
; I assumed Fedora does likewirse.
Works! You’re the best Robin. I will donate to Ardour again very soon. Have a lovely evening!
Glad I could help, have fun mixing your soundtrack!
