            Bug ID: 512250
           Summary: Edit duration interface is extremely unintuitive and
                    unfriendly
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kdenlive
      Version First 25.08.3
       Reported In:
          Platform: Other
                OS: Microsoft Windows
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Timeline & Editing
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
The edit duration dialogue is, to my knowledge, not explained in the
documentation at all, and when something goes wrong with it, there is no
feedback given to the user.

Right now I'm trying to edit a clip to start at 1:42 instead of 1:02 without
having to move it around the timeline or anything. When I change the crop start
variable to 1:42, it goes back to 1:02 for NO reason once I click outside of
the crop start field. The crop end window is also set near the end of the video
when the clip in the timeline is only a few seconds.

This is the most unintuitive UI design I have ever seen and I am close to
ditching kdenlive over it since all I can do now to get the correct time is to
constantly move and resize the clip. This is unbelievable and irritating.

I am reporting this as a bug because I can't believe that this is intentional.

EXPECTED RESULT
Firstly document what the fields actually mean, secondly give feedback to the
user as to why the values reset suddenly.
