This is great, thank you so much! One bug I've found: if the path to the imported EDL is long, it gets truncated. It would be nice to have th option of giving our own names to the nested EDLs, or if they would assume the name of the origin file (maybe they already do, but it's being truncated in my case).

Wow, this is interesting feature, will try to play with it later

Thanks, Phyllis, for your tireless work on documenting/testing all those features, and GG for implementing them!

With the latest checkin, you can now edit EDL that is included with your project as Clips, Nested Clips, or Xml. For example, if you have a nested clip that originally had several plugins added to it before it was nested, you can edit those plugin parameter values. Previously to make any changes to these EDL clips/nested clips, you had to remake the whole clip from scratch. This is done via "Open EDL" and button click as described below by the ****.

In addition a couple of modifications related to this are noticeable to include the following: - in the Clip folder, when you Nest a clip, the wording which was "Nest" is now "Nest to Media" - in the Clip folder, when you actually perform "Nest to Media", the nested clip is only displayed in the Media folder

for example: 1) load some test media, mode replace project 2) highlight a selection and press create clip. add notes and press ok. clip is created 3) in resources window, open the clip folder. clip1 is present 4) select clip1 and right mouse the item. select menu item Open EDL 5) timeline changes to just the clip content. 6) add a visible effect, like burning tv and press the [1] in the main menu bar. 7) timeline is restored to original media. 8) drag the clip from the resources folder to the timeline. The effect is visible.

**** - in the Clip folder, there is a new option to "Open EDL" for the highlighted clip. When you choose this option, the clip will be brought up on the timeline. *VERY IMPORTANT to note*, the previous timeline EDL is "pushed onto a stack" (this is programmer talk) so it is remembered and to get back to that you have to "pop the stack" (more programmer talk) by clicking on the button in the upper right hand corner of the timeline above where the Proxy switch button would be. Usually this button will read 1 if you choose "Open EDL" and then 0 when back to your original timeline. You can go several levels deep so instead of 1, it could be 2, 3, ... but I got to tell you that you can get lost if you overdo it. Once the clip is open on the timeline, you can edit it however you want.

- in the Media folder, once you have nested a clip, the Nested clip will be located here - in the Media folder, the option to unnest the clip is now called "EDL to clip" which results in the nested clip being reverted to a clip and back into the clip folder with only a name of "Clip #". The nested clip is also still in the Media folder. - in the Media folder, you now have the new option to "Open EDL" as described for clips above. But in this case when you Open EDL and edit the changes, those changes will take affect on any and all occurrences of that nested clip on the timeline.

I will make a demo later. There are Debian 9/10 static tars that contain this and other mods in the Download / Documentation / File Storage at cinelerra-gg.org. Would be happy to make static tars for any other usual distro/version if you would like to test early.
