Thanks.

Haiku port: dream or reality ?

forart.eu — Thu, 30 Aug 2007 09:49:37 -0000

Since i suggested <a href=http://haiku-os.org/community/forum/multitrack_a_v_suite>here</a> to port some multitrack a/v softs to Haiku (that IMHO will become the killers apps for the multimedia-oriented OS) some developers replies coming.

From <a href=http://traverso-daw.org/forum/index.php/topic,19.0.html>this 3ad</a> @ <a href=http://traverso-daw.org/>Traverso</a>'s <a href=http://traverso-daw.org/forum/index.php>forum</a>:

<cite>I've looked somewhat into it, and the big problem with porting Traverso to Haiku is that Haiku uses a completely different concept of creating applications!</cite>

<cite>It uses it's own modules which can be used to build the application. But Traverso is allready an application, build on/with the Qt toolkit.<cite>

<cite>I'm afraid a port to Haiku is not feasible, primarily due the different approaches to make an OS/application.</cite>

...and what about HyperEngine ?

Universal/Intel build

Slokunshialgo — Wed, 27 Dec 2006 23:11:25 -0000

Due to the growing number of people purchasing Intel macs (And the lack of being able to buy new PPC ones), I would recommend making this program available as an Intel binary, or, at least, a Universal one.

Other OS port

Anonymous — Sun, 17 Dec 2006 13:21:57 -0000

It would be great to have an Haiku & ReactOS port for it !

- Haiku is an open source (MIT) effort to first recreate and then extend a most excellent, once-commercially-supported, media-oriented desktop computer operating system called the BeOS.

- ReactOS is an Open Source (GPL) effort to develop a quality operating system that is compatible with Windows NT applications and drivers (based on WINE's code).

Audio Clip Display Magnify Option...

Robert Purser — Sat, 20 May 2006 12:15:45 -0000

For editing sync sound productions with normally recorded audio, the
display is almost impossible to see at even 100%. It appears as just a
single line with only faint bumps.

There should be a menu item which will change the display to 8x
resolution. Nothing changes except the volume appears to be 8 times
larger.

Editing of sync sound is often done in the gaps between words. But the
gaps between words is often impossible to see because the words are so
faint. Therefore, there should be a menu option which can be turned on
or off which will display the audio wave form as if it were multiplied by 8
times. It does not matter if the larger wave forms appear clipped because
you are only looking for the gaps between the words.

Also, to make this more easy to understand, the background of the
audio clips should be turned to a light pink or orange while this features
is turned on. This will also help when working with audio clips since the
background color of the audio clips is too close the background color of
the video clips.

"Save To..." should be "Save Backup"

Robert Purser — Sat, 20 May 2006 12:07:35 -0000

The "Save To..." menu item under FILE should be made clearer by saying
"Save Backup...". The words "Save To..." do not make this clear.

Speed up screen refresh / fewer pictures

Robert Purser — Thu, 11 May 2006 09:32:10 -0000

Currently, HyperEngine is designed for multimedia projects which
have only a few film clips. However, when you edit a scene from
a drama with about 15 clips, the refresh of the screen takes too
long because of the film strip feature for all the clips.

There needs to be an option to use only ONE icon picture per clip,
not a film strip.

Also, if possible, for clips which are long and start off screen,
there should be an option to show at one picture for each clip.

Change needed for motion picture editing

Robert Purser — Thu, 03 Nov 2005 14:39:23 -0000

HyperEngine-AV is not designed for sync sound. The audio
and the picture can easily go out of sync when editing a
motion picture or television drama. Even worse, there is no
easy way to resync audio to picture. Therefore, an option
button needs to be added to force the locking of the audio to
the picture... while still allowing the audio and the picture to
be trimmed separately (i.e. L-Cuts). When this option is
turned on, the audio and the picture must move together. If
one is moved, the other must move with it so they never go
out of sync. Robert Purser r_purser -at- digipuppet.com
