Yes, I agree, but specifying the time in seconds would simplyfy programming a great deal. It'S far easier to parse a simple number than something like 12:21:12.32, isn't it? We just multiply it by the number of fps and get the framenumber (currently) or use a more sophisticated algorithm later. > Cheers, > Rolf Servus Casandro > *************************************************************** > Rolf Dubitzky > e-mail: Rolf.Dubitzky at Physik.TU-Dresden.de > s-mail see http://hep.phy.tu-dresden.de/~dubitzky/ > *************************************************************** > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This sf.net email is sponsored by: To learn the basics of securing > your web site with SSL, click here to get a FREE TRIAL of a Thawte > Server Certificate: http://www.gothawte.com/rd524.html > _______________________________________________ > Kdenlive-devel mailing list > Kdenlive-devel at lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/kdenlive-devel -- Warning!
