Frame by Frame Editing w/ new Screenshots!

Written for OpenShot Video Editor by Jonathan Thomas on 2009-05-19

We have just released a new feature that allows the user to edit any video clip frame by frame in their favorite image editing software (i.e. Gimp, Blender, Inkscape). OpenShot still treats the new image sequence as a regular video clip, so it's still easy to resize, trim, and arrange on the time-line!

Just added the ability to add markers to the time-line, which lets the user mark points of interest in their video project. Using the new video controls, the user can quickly jump between each marker (represented by the glassy purple lines). New screenshots on http://www.openshotvideo.com.
