Some plugins need access to sequences of pictures, not just single pictures. That's all the input there is to begin with; after all, video is just a sequence of images. However, motion and rotation tracking use a lot of CPU time to produce a rather compact set of parameters. There should be a common way to store the output of such "solvers", for quick realtime reuse. -- Herman Robak _______________________________________________ Cinelerra mailing list [email protected] https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
