Hi,
I think this scenario has passed by on the mailinglist before, and I might because of how I work, be more attracted to these kinds of problems than others that mainly do non-linear work.
While I think I can't even start on implementing those ideas I have question: did you tried to use 'split timeline' feature, so each cam put on same teack but at wildly different time and you have 2-4 zones for working on each one? (mostly by cutting things to another track?) Or I completely misuderstand how split timeline works in cin ...
After the recording, and after getting the main production idea, my projects are timewise mostly influenced by reconstruction of a multi track linear timeline. I am using multiple camera's that don't use any (world) timecodes, and have 2GB limitations. So the best thing they can do is giving me a relative timestamp by means the filename or creation_time metadata.
What I would be interested in is the ability to:
0. having a forever scrolling canvas, canvas may do tricks like hiding places where no content is available
-- but how you will tell users there is like 1, min of content, and there is 5m? By some markets? Should those 'edits' expand individually when needed?
1. "automatically" construct such timeline each track(group) being from a single device, which typically atomically can only produce a single stream of content by means of metadata
---
how you think should work, is there something like cameraID or you need to associate some user-know metadata key to specific camera, so you can say send all medias with this metadata to specific track or media bin?
2. having some tooling that can do macro alignment, independent of metadata (for example by audio fingerprinting)
interesting idea, does any libre NLE currently have such functionality?
3. having some tooling that can do micro alignment
--
Like 'move this segment few frames left/right' as context menu option?
4. export this in either some EDL format or multitrack format being NLE independent
--- I'll try to look into it a bit more, but no promices (cmx3600 only had few audio tracks, but may be there were unofficial extensions ...)
I wonder what other people are using for the above, other than pen and paper.
From my own experience within Cinerella (I know about mixers) I don't end up with the workflow that I want for non-continious recordings.
A second email follows on a different workflow issue.
