Description Jean-François Fortin Tam 2010-09-11 00:22:06 UTC 
This is a feature often requested by users: being able to go to an exact timecode/position in the timeline.

Example with Avidemux

It would be very useful. I attach a screencast that illustrates the ways Avidemux allows the user to go to an exact position. Maybe it can give ideas for PiTiVi.
Comment 2 Jean-François Fortin Tam 2010-12-22 19:52:08 UTC 
Wow, using an editable GTK Entry widget instead of a Label to display the timecode, to allow directly jumping to a different timecode, is a clever idea!
Comment 3 Jean-François Fortin Tam 2010-12-24 22:09:45 UTC 
I have implemented this feature in a branch here:

     Implement a TimeWidget class and use it to jump to a specific time
     Remove the string_to_time function


Based on the work from nekohayo as the logs suggest.
