Hello list,

I'm currently working on a Linux driver for the DM2, a DJ control surface which would make an excellent editing tool for cinelerra.

If there'd be the possibility of using MIDI controls for jog/shuttle, in/out-point setting, splicing, overwriting, and so on.

Skimming through the source code I see a lot of get_keypress() stuff, which doesn't lend itself to MIDI integration very well.

My idea would be to factor out the keypress handling segments into functions which can be called from key handlers as well as from a MIDI handler. Then, I'd figure out where in the main event loop (if there is such a thing) I can integrate reading from MIDI.

My first step would be to choose one function (like play/pause) and try to get that to work with MIDI.

If there are any objections, or collisions with other attempts to integrate MIDI, or any better ideas of how to achieve this, please tell me. Any helpful comment is appreciated!

In the mean time, thanks for a great video editing suite and keep up the good work!

- Ján
