Ability to separate audio and video, as well as display video frames and waveforms along the timeline

[Jimy]

It would be great to be able to separate audio from video.
It be also be useful to see a visual representation of the material within the clip ie: a filmstrip for video and a waveform for audio.
I find this feature very useful when using Final Cut but forget buying a mac I'd rather be using THIS on linux.

1) KARMIC KOALA
2) haven't installed this since I upgraded from jaunty, yesterday, and won't until my VLC is safe. I'm looking at you PPA
3) was running 0.9.52

THANK YA KINDLY

Thanks for the suggestions. I would like to have more options to visualize
the video and audio on the timeline. It's pretty basic right now, but gets
the job done. This is on the wishlist now, so we won't forget about it. =)
I have been dumping my time into fixing the PPA, so hopefully I'll have an
update soon.

Thanks,
-Jonathan

Thanks for the reply and thanks for the effort, I really appreciate what you and a few others are doing here and I realize that yeah, there are definitely more pressing issues than representations on the timeline. This project is my favorite linux project to follow keep up the great work.

brilliant work so far and congratulations on reaching V1.0!!
i just wish to add my voice to the non critical issue of representing a visual audio wave on the timeline. as a music and (amateur/beginner) video producer being able to match the audio to key frames is very important to me for making videos to my music. i love the learning process.
also just a big thanks to having added the play video at "whatever" speed, feature in clip properties. this was what made me choose this project above many others. enabling me to make time lapse videos from standard footage. compressing 2 hours into around 7 minutes.
possibly i just dont know how to do it yet, but i would like to create a transition where, the screen brightness increases until reaching complete white, and then fade back to normal, into another clip. i envisage this happening in around 250-500ms.
thanks again.

one more thing, thanks for that build/install script. i use 8.04 and it saved me a world of dependencies headaches. forget the PPA, no need with a script like that!!! :P

[FairMiles (fermilesi)]

Would be a great thing to have a waveform drawn on every clip box. While cutting/joining the video on clips works great (you can move frame by frame in preview), cutting/joining audio on clips is pretty difficult (you can't preview audio frame by frame!). A waveform would allow the identification of audio gaps (at least volume gaps).

And much better if waveform changes according to fades in & out!

THANK YOU

It will come with our own library libopenshot and the future big version 2.0.
Thanks for your interest for this project.
