screencast

With Pitivi and GES, if you crossfade quickly, the transition on the timeline canvas will not be sized and positioned correctly. This only affects the UI representation, not the playback/render pipeline, as seeking through the transition reveals the transition was correctly positioned but doesn't match the visual representation.

The attached screencast demonstrates the problem.

Mathieu is confident that this not a UI bug, that the timleine UI does "strictly what it's told"; if you tell it "this transition is 10 feet long", it will believe you. Maybe something in the backend is forgetting to signal/signalling at the wrong time/values.
Comment 1 Thibault Saunier 2013-11-16 23:03:16 UTC
I it only concerns the UI I would think it is UI related and not a backend issue which means that bug is most probably in Pitivi than GES to me.
Comment 2 Jean-François Fortin Tam 2013-11-17 13:08:55 UTC
Well, Mathieu said the exact opposite and is 100% sure it isn't in Pitivi.
