It turns out that the linux binaries do not necessarily run on other Linux flavours (Ubuntu related complaints were the latest). So we've made a bunch of changes/additions/fixes which hopefully will help in making ZS4 run on you very own Linux box.

This article assumes that you are familiar with the default zs4 rendering strategy, where the bottom (child) <a class="glossary-term" href="glossary#term38"><acronym title="track: input unit for mixer. basic component of zs4 project tree">track</acronym></a> in the project treeview is rendered into the parent (<a class="glossary-term" href="glossary-compositing"><acronym title="mixer: the combining (object) of more/multiple media tracks into few (usually one).">mixer</acronym></a>) track first and the top child is rendered last which results in the basic compositing strategy.
