Works very nicely :-) I have been wondering for a while though on what to do with mouse events, drag'n'drop requests, (and mouse wheel events) that occur over the video window. I really don't think it is piave's place to handle them, since that breaks the UI/render seperation that we have so far kept. I am going to look into how X handles various events - I assume that it is fairly easy to tell X to pass them directly to the parent window, so that kdenlive can handle them without using VEML, which I don't consider to be a very elegant solution for mouse events. What I am saying is that for the moment, the mouse wheel support is fine, but when I figure out the best way to do it, all mouse/drag events should be dropped directly to kdenlive, which knows how to handle them much more generally - think for instance, arranging a picture-on-picture effect by dragging around the picture around in the movie window.
