[Bug 520941] Re: Fade in/out glitches

 

I am sorry to say that I was unable to resolve the issue in the end. I
spent 3 days trying to make the libraries agree on the clip length to
stop openshot getting messed up...I couldn't

I accept that my workflow is somewhat unusual, because I am effectively
using "proxy clips" (see details on my workflow above) outside of
openshot. I simple cannot edit my 1080p video using the raw
footage..required performance is not even close..which is not helped by
openshot using 30% of my CPU while idling on an empty project.

I have ordered a new machine Core i7 2600 with 8GB and a 2TB RAID 0
stripe disk because it will make life easier...however even with that my
performance calculations suggest that I cannot edit using the raw
mp4/libx64 clips. So proxying will remain essential

I tried with kdenlive which has proxy clips built in..and
...sorry...just worked.

kdenlive has bugs too..and it crashes...but this bug really cripples any
half serious usage of openshot for me (perhaps it's caused by the bad
mp4s my camera produces..although kdenlive handles them fine using the
same underlying mlt).

Title:
  Fade in/out glitches

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I don't know if anyone else has experienced this, but now and again
  (not all the time) my fades in and out glitch at the outer end: before
  a fade in, the image or video appears momentarily (probably just for
  one frame) then disappears, and the fade starts normally. Similarly at
  the end, with the final frame flashing up full brightness.

  It also seems to some extent to happen on audio - it's like OpenShot
  realises a moment too late that it's not meant to be playing the
  audio, or that a fade is meant to be happening.

  Sometimes it doesn't happen, and sometimes it fixes itself...
  unfortunately not on a 'quick' project I've been doing this morning!

  Anyway. It's absolutely great work - I'm so impressed! Something as
  good as this, and non-linear (I can't understand what you can even do
  with linear editing!) is a joy to have!

  Ubuntu 8.04
  DEB 1.0.0

  Again - great application. I've already done some stuff I'm really
  pleased with!

  Cheers,

  Mike
