Public bug reported:
Imagine this situation:
You have a 3 minute clip in which some people fight, Mortal Kombat style. You
import the clip to OpenShot and start editing.
In the middle of the clip there is a one second interval where one of them
should throw a fireball. Wouldn't it be great if you just could cut at the two
places where the fireball should start and end flying, right click the newly
created clip and choose "Convert To Clip"? I have tested converting a 3 minute
clip, and it took a very long time. Also that gives you all frames, not just
the ones you want.
Patch below.
The patch works like following:
Adds a "Convert To Image Sequence" option when right-clicking a clip on the
timeline.
Let's say the clips name is MORTALKOMBAT.
If clicked: Creates a folder with the name MORTALKOMBAT in the same folder as
the video and then creates a folder in the MORTALKOMBAT folder with the name
MORTALKOMBAT_1 (or _2 if taken, or _3 if taken ...) and places the frames
there. If videos are converted to images in the old way (the whole video), they
end up in the MORTALKOMBAT folder as before.
The reason I put MORTALKOMBAT_1 in the MORTALKOMBAT and not in the clip
folder is because someone could then create a clip with the name
MORTALKOMBAT_1.avi, convert the whole video and then overwrite frames
from another clip.
I hope everything is clear.
