Sound editor volume problem with Openshot.

[Paulllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll]

I like to add music to a Openshot video. I can reduce the volume. But I can't fade out the volume to zero without the volume starting again from full volume.

Openshot does not have that functionality at this time. Here is how you can accomplish the audio fade out at a lower starting volume.

1. Drag your video/audio file onto a track.
2. Make sure the clip is selected (red border line around it).
3. Click on the "Previous Key Point" to jump the playhead to the left edge of your clip.
4. Right click on the clip and select Properties.
5. In the Properties window find the Volume attribute. By default it is set to 1.00.
6. Double click the 1.00 and change it to whatever your want your starting volume level to be. Let's say you type .5 and press the Enter key. This reduces the volume for the entire clip.
7. Now, click on the "Next Key Point" to jump the Playhead to the end of your clip.
8. Note that the Volume attribute is still set to .5. Double click the .5 and change it to 0 and press the enter key.
9. This should achieve audio fade out with a lower volume starting point.

You are leveraging the keyframes to accomplish this. Make sure that the Playhead is always positioned in the desired position before changing attributes to get the proper effect/animation.
