Wishlist: Different frame/time stepsize when moving in video

Open pjotrek-b opened this issue 9 years ago • 2 comments

In order to conveniently and quickly move around in the video, our ingest operator has pointed out that it is desirable to have the ability to quickly jump faster than frame-wise.

For example, in Virtualdub, there are the following step sizes for movement:

  • frame [left/right]
  • 50 frames (=1 sec. PAL) [Shift left/right]
  • 1 minute [Ctrl left/right]
  • Previous/next I-frame
  • Previous/next dropped/inserted frame [<>] (excellent for verifying proper capture and/or born-digital material)

Additionally, the same functionality would be good to have in the graph, too. This enables the operator to quickly skim through the recording, while watching out for peaks.

I agree a shortcut to jump by 1 second or 1 minute increments could be helpful.
