SUMMARY

Add the capability of the mark and guide include time range instead only a
timestamp/one frame. So, want I mean is the developers were going to add a
"sub-feature" for Marks and Guide.

WHY?

I create livestream highlight cuts and in order to achieve that I first watch
the whole livestream. I use marks for list this good moments, but most of time,
a moment is a time range. If I want to list this section, I need create two
marks, one for beginning and one for ending. It slow down my workflow, since I
always need rename the marks to describe what's happens.

Another motivation would be: this is a common feature between the professional
proprietary Video Editors - and really useful.

I GUESS THERE IS A SHORTCUT TO ADD IT...

I know that Shotcut video editor allow you add duration for mark. Since that
KDEnlive and Shotcut have components in common, maybe the developers could get
shortcut to implement this feature for marks in KDEnlive checking the Shotcut
source - sorry if I saying something really stupid.

ISN'T "INSERT ZONE IN PROJECT BIN" ENOUGH?

I know about the "Insert Zone in Project Bin" feature, but it's slow when I
handle with a long livestream (at least, 5 hours). Also, when I select the
sub-clip for rename, I need select it in Project Bin and it make me lose the
waveform zoom in Clip Monitor and always need redo the zooming, what's really
annoying.

And, marks and guides can be export from KDEnlive, what's really cool, but
"Inserted Zone" not.

HOW WOULD THIS WORK?

When you to add a mark, the dialog box now have field to type the beginning and
the ending point of the mark. By default, mark would keep one frame time range
as soon as add.


"SUB" FEATURE REQUEST?

Also, if I may request one more thing about this stuff, it would be so amazing
if the developers add a function to add mark and guide with the same range as
the zone are set in timeline or clip monitor. I mean, the mark already would be
filled with the beginning point the same as zone in point and the ending point
the same as zone out point.

Actually, this sub feature request is a feature available in DaVinci Resolve
video editor, but it is so useful.

THAT IS IT!

Thank you for read till here and also for all effort to make the KDEnlive.

After make the whole text, I found out this feature already was request:

Report already sent in Bug Tracker -
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=415987
