I second this. It would be really nice if Openshot could automatically convert the files to more usable resolution/format/codec for edition and use the original files during export.

Previews are slow, sometimes almost unusable and the application may even crash as a result. A great feature would be if one could convert the source files to some nice light "working format" (lower quality, smaller frame sizes etc), so that timeline editing goes fast and easy, and that one, when it is time for rendering, could choose to use the original files so that the rendered video becomes high quality. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openshot.developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openshot.developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
