OK, so, Kdenlive is using about 33% of the time, and thumbnail retrieval would only be a portion of that - I estimate less than 20% of the overall time. In MLT, I could make an alias for the avformat producer, for example "avformat-validate", that will be the new default. Then, have it serialize itself to xml as simply "avformat." Next, when it sees it has been loaded through "avformat" instead of "avformat-validate" it will skip the validation and expect the properties it needs to be deserialized. I do not expect it to be too much work, but it will have to wait until just after the next release. -- +-DRD-+
