Implementation
[edit]
Controls
- current: a linkbutton control with which a random position can be manually entered
- zoom: this is of lower priority which allows to set the zooming level of the image (either fit or a percentage)
- total: total time of the clip
- jog: with the left mouse down you can jump to previous frames by moving left or to next frames by moving right
- shuttle: with the left mouse down you can rewind or forward with variable speeds
The current and total controls should be able to display in units of frames or time.
[edit]
Steps
- current & total
- jog (not custom control)
- shuttle
- refactor so that it can work as a widget independently of pitivi with plain pipelines
- zoom
- jog (as custom control)

About myself
I am willing to work on this but will need mentoring. My background:
- graduated as architect and visual/video artist (I care about aesthetics and UI design)
- experience of python (no C or C++)
- plenty of gui experience with wxpython
- author of SPE (Python IDE - http://pythonide.stani.be), Phatch (Photo Batch Processor - http://photobatch.stani.be) & sdxf.
- new to pygtk and gstreamer -> mentoring needed
- I don't have a lot of time so I prefer to focus on something I need myself and I can finish
- working on ubuntu
