[Kdenlive-devel] Fwd: Re: Multimedia Frameworks

[Jason Wood]

Hi, 

I've been having an interesting conversation on kde-multimedia with somebody 
who has his own working cutter/engine, who is interested in working with us.

Cheers,
Jason

Sounds great.

Ambitious. ;-) I wonder how much sepparation is possible. Anyway, as a goal
it sounds good. Who cares if you achieve it 100%.

this one?

Yes, I am. I'll check out your src and see what I can do. I have a few
sample projects that render to clips and are 100% hardcoded in C++. I want to
 try and embed a KVideoWidget in you GUI and display the samples, or is that
 already done? Next step, use your gui to set input strems to the samples.
 Next, try some dialogs to setup the transitions (ignoring a generic IFace
 for now). Then, there is a big problem. The visualization of the timeline.
 This is a big problem, but maybe not in the very near future. Let's see what
 happens.

Cheers
