Pitivi master finaly gets effects!

So as suggested by the title, the work I did during the Google Summer Of Code has been Merged! It means that the next Pitivi release which should arrive quite soon will gain effects.

I haven't been blogging for a long while so sorry about not telling you what was happening but I did it in order to make a surprise :P

Now that it is merged, you are very welcome to test it and report all the bugs you will find so we have a great release soon to propose the world.... with effects!

Sorry for not making a screencast but as you can test it quite easily, it shouldn't matter so much ;) (and nekohayo is telling me he should make one soon)

As I enjoyed a LOT working in the pitivi community during this summer, I am going to keep working on it in my free time fixing the bugs you are going to report. And of course I am planing to enhance effects support and add features such as keyframes handling...

And just a little screenshot so you can have an idea about how the UI looks like now:

  4. Hello.

    Thanks vor your very good job. :)

    I have 2 questions:
    - Is it possible to define start and stop time of each effect?
    - This feature support all GStreamer filters?

  5. @korbé:
    * It's not yet possible to define keyframes so start/stop time of each effect, but you can just cut the clip and add the effect to the clip you want to define it.
    * Yes it supports all effect filters generating automatically the configuration UI

  6. Ah, you can't define "I won't title from 00:00:00 to 00:01:00" and "transition effect between this video and this video" ?

  7. You could do it cuting the clip so you can have an effect from 0 to 00:01:00 and the for transition, you should use transition instead of effect which is different. We have only a simple transition implementation for now. You can also work around for this, cuting you two clips where you want you 'transition' to happen and had the corresponding effect to those 2 peaces of clips.

    Hoping that's what you meant ;)
