Re: Introducing Myself

 

>>In terms of future plans, I recently just saw that the OpenShot video
editing library is being developed. When OpenShot 2.0 comes out, the older
bugs that affected the MLT version of OpenShot will need to be handled.
Maybe mark them as invalid or wont fix?

Oh I see that you are aware. It was what I was thinking when I have seen the
tag mlt and all the bugs concerning.
For me invalid is more appropriated.

Thanks a lot for your active participation. :)
