Frame Numbers move too fast #232

Closed Haika-IT closed 6 months ago

Haika-IT commented 6 months ago

Need a frame number bar at the bottom of the player. That gives all the frame numbers, and highlight the current frame number.

ggarra13 commented 6 months ago

I am not quite sure I understand. The speed of the frame number changes based on your FPS setting. If you want them to move slower, just change your FPS to a lower setting.

The current frame number is shown in white in the timeline bar and in the frame number indicator (the F, S or T to the left of the play buttons -- F for frames, S for seconds, T for timecode).

I agree that movie files without zooming in the timeline viewport indeed don't show as many frame ticks as I would like (it is in my todo list), but frame sequences show them relatively sanely with evenly spaced frame ticks. Showing ALL frame numbers would make them overlap too much.

Yes, while playing movie files (.mov or .mp4), the frame number moves too fast. This makes frame by frame check to be difficult.

I imagine English is not your first language, so I am not understanding what you mean. You can step frame by frame with the buttons <| and |> and with the left and right arrow keys on the keyboard.

I can communicate in English properly, it is just that I do not know much of the technical terms in this domain, I am just conveying to you what my colleagues(Artists) told me about what they are facing trouble with in mrv2. If the issue is already solved or if it is a miscommunication between us we will leave it like that.

When you report a bug or a problem, you need to provide as much information as possible. You need to tell me (version of mrv2, platform used, etc. If you can upload a short movie or picture with the problem, the better. (if github does not allow you because it is larger than 10Mb or proprietary, upload it to a download place like mega.nz and share the link with an email at ggarra13@gmail.com or just post it here if it is public). For example, from mega.nz:

There I show all the frame numbers locations (in the timeline and in the left corner). I show you how to step through frames. I also show you a preference setting that makes scrubbing through frames faster (maybe that's what they mean), as they scrub with audio. Turning that preference (Window->Preference->Playback->Auto Scrub Playback) OFF (it is ON by default) makes movies play without audio while scrubbing but it is easier to scrub frames. Maybe that's what your Artists mean.
