Seperate monitor for Timeline and Clip viewer #17

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
It would be better to have a separate Timeline and clip viewer in flowblade. I 
could monitor where my cursor is on the timeline while selecting and inserting 
the clip from the clip viewer.

MLT does not currently support multiple monitors for output. I think there is 
some work done on this feature and if the functionality becomes available we'll 
revisit the isuue.

However, I think it would be very difficult to do this, so whether we try to do 
this or not is difficult to say right now.

I agree that option to have separate monitors ala Avid might be useful.

In kdenlive i have seen how timeline viewer and clip viewer are seperate. Can 
you please look into that software? As it is also based on MLT, maybe something 
you are missing? Ignore me if i am completely wrong, as i have no clue in 
programming.

You are correct, KDEnlive seems to be able to do it. There seems to some sort 
of performance penalty thought, clip monitor was very sluggish. Responsiveness 
is a corner stone goal of the project, and I won't make significant sacrifices 
in that area.

HAlso, aving thought about it, my internal code structure does not support this 
at all, so attempting it would be a major investment. I'm not saying never, but 
this won't be happening in the near future.

Marking this WontFix. This is not part of current development plans for the 
future.
