No. If you want to convert a MLT XML playlist into a Melted playlist, then you have to write a MVCP client program/script that steps through the playlist items and adds them to melted. In the process, you will probably lose all filters and transitions. Melted is intentionally simple; you can give it a complex XML composition, but the comp is just a virtual clip and Melted does not try to understand it. There is somewhat of a middle ground where you can attach filters to only clips (as opposed to tracks). Some filters like watermark can encompass a transition. Then, you can make a bunch of smaller XML files/chunks with filters applied to clips and enqueue those. Or, you can expand the program that reads MLT XML (using MLT API or not), stepping through the playlist, to "break apart" the XML into chunks of only producer and filter elements, PUSHing those to Melted. Or, forget Melted and make your own server with a more expressive protocol. -- +-DRD-+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master HTML5, CSS3, ASP.NET, MVC, AJAX, Knockout.js, Web API and much more.
