OpenShot Video Editor

Clip in-out information?

Asked by CinemaScope

I can't immediately find this on the website, and since I haven't installed openshot yet could you tell me if:

1) There is any form of EDL list for the clips on the timeline?

2) On the timeline can you access individual clip properties which includes in/out times (ie. when you trim the beginning and end of say a 3 minute clip so it only occupies say 3 seconds on the timeline and you want to know what both those minus durations were)?

I usually edit using a proxy system, so an EDL or in/out timings for individual clips is vital to recreate the on-line from the off-line edit.
Many thanks.

We do not support an EDL yet. But that is planned for future versions. You
can edit the clip properties of each clip, and set the IN and OUT points
with great precision. But you can't load in a text file of hundreds of
edits... at least not yet. Thanks!
