Hi Nick,

What introduction and welcome in the free Open source world and specially
in the project Openshot Video Editor.

Could you put again your attachment ? It seems to be lost somewhere. :-(

Like Andy have already said, there are in our todo-list and it will be
great if somebody would/could like to implement them.

 Effectivelly, we 'll change last year at our own library called
libopenshot which will replace MLT. So, it doesn't matter if you are not
familiar with MLT.

For the moment, nobody other the core engine of the project has access at
this one. Don't worry, when she will be finished this situation will change.

First, lest take a look at your ideas.

Thanks.
