Debian Multimedia - OK in Ubuntu?

[kasio]

Hi,

I have been using the debian-multimedia.org repository for a while now without problems. Then Kdenlive messed up, so I went and got rid of it, and it worked again!

Now my question is, does debian-multimedia.org and Ubuntu mix anymore? Cause the packages there are just OMG.

These repositories provide packages for the different branches of Debian, not Ubuntu. The fact it works in most cases means it won't in all cases, it really depends on your running Ubuntu and the current state of the Debian branch who's repository you're using.
So issues like this you'll likely run in to when mixing repositories for different kind of os's.
You better use Ubuntu repositories as much as possible.

Edit: Or use Debian

Very true. Are there any Ubuntu repositories that have up to date packages inline with Debian-multimedia or PackMan?

I would not use Debian repos or install debian packages on ubuntu. Almost everything in the debian repo is available in the Ubuntu repo also IMO

Cannot answer really.. I'm a Debian user myself
Mabe GetDeb provides some packages you need?
