Constant Values

[Thangalin]

There are a few constant value limits that I could not see how to change (in the code):

1. 300.000000000 - The limit to the number of seconds an image can apply.
2. -110 - The limit for X and Y (%) when setting keyframes for an image.

Such limitations seem arbitrary and unnecessarily prohibitive.

Recommendations:

(a) Include a single Python file called constants.py and place all limiting constants in that file.
(b) Allow the user to change the limits in the Edit -> Preference settings.

The limit for -110 cannot be worked around. The limit for 300 can be worked around by duplicating the image.

Hum Personaly, i don't know how are fixed this values. Is it a limitation of MLT or a limitation that we have done including to be sure that 's working without problem. Only Jonathan can answer at that (and modified too) ! So i'll tag it in the wishlist.
Thanks.

I think we should do something similar.
Examples of strings that can be found everywhere in the code:
".osp"
"thumbnail"
