Workflow for editing multiple angles #116

Open stefanadelbert opened 3 years ago

stefanadelbert commented 3 years ago

I would like to hear advice from users of Flowblade about workflow suggestions for editing multiple angles. A use case would be switching between several angles taken of a musician performing against a single master audio track.

The functionality in Flowblade for aligning video tracks using their audio us excellent. But once all the video tracks are aligned, what is a good workflow for switching from one video track to another without affecting the alignment of the video tracks?

I think it is best to quite simply:

1) Click monitor icon on each track in tracks colun on the left to turn video on/off to view material. 2) Use Cut tool or track activity switches and X key to cut clips on different tracks. 3) Use Lift delete not Splice Out delete button to remove video and maintain sync with other tracks. 4) To cover holes drag clips ends, not clips them selves.

The current achievable workflow is quite manual. There probably will not be anything new in this area for the next few releases but in medium term we will look for improvements here too.
