I think it has to do with the idea that the playback head is positioned on a sample rather than on a frame. When you say "move ahead one frame", you aren't actually moving to the next frame; you are moving ahead an amount of time equal to the length of one frame, and seeing what happens during that time. When you change direction, you end up replaying the same frame twice. I imagine the original developer of Cinelerra thought that was more logical. Now, we generally edit with "align playback head to frames" turned on, and in that environment, this behaviour sure is confusing. Before trying to change it, I think we should try to figure out how other editors handle this issue. I'm not sure it's trivial to know exactly what the "right" behaviour is. I've changed the title of this message because I'm pretty sure the "masks moving" issue was actually about "Edit keyframes while tweaking" being turned off, not this. -- Matthew Skala [EMAIL PROTECTED] Embrace and defend. http://ansuz.sooke.bc.ca/ _______________________________________________ Cinelerra mailing list [email protected] https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
