Things I would like to get in: - enhancements to Slideshow clip window to enable recent MLT enhancements (center crop, Ken Burns effect, and forthcoming random option for transition). I would love to get some volunteer help here because I am still not comfortable with code that must interact with the kdenlive doc. - additional items in Advanced section of Clip Properties based on a couple things in development (luma handling) and 2 old things (top-field-first toggle and display aspect ratio) Finally, what is the state of the "Region" stuff you have added? Firstly, I think "Region" is a horrible name. I know it comes from MLT, but I did not name it that. Secondly, the problems you mentioned. Thirdly, the usability and usefulness problems I mentioned in my thread with Till about masks. (Mask is the better term, and I suggest to reserve the term Matte to use when one applies a Mask to the alpha channel for compositing. Otherwise, a filters Mask will not alter the original alpha channel or its modifications for the purposes of compositing.) -- +-DRD-+
