Well I have no idea about who is using webvfx and what they do, and since their website is dead, I couldn't find any infos. I will contact the maintainer of github's repository to find more infos. > > I still have a problem when trying to use these producers in Kdenlive > > because in EffectsImpl::render(double time, Image* renderImage), the > > QMetaObject::invokeMethod(this, "renderInvokable" (...) sometimes freezes. > > > > You will find my changes on my personal copy of webvfx: > > > > https://github.com/j-b-m/webvfx > > > > Dan, I am also wondering why you limited the transparency stuff to "plain" > > .html files.

Ok, but with some minor changes to an existing HTML5 animated page, the javascript extensions allow to create seekable animations that can be overlayed on existing videos. I posted a few sample videos created with my transparent producers version here: http://kdenlive.org/videos/retitler.html I will clean up my code and ask more infos about the implications for webvfx users and keep you informed. regards jb ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Mlt-devel mailing list Mlt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mlt-devel
