Hi,

Toying yesterday with Imagination [1], a Linux/BSD software that allow to easily make a slide show, i was thinking that I could easily use Pitivi for that, the lonely thing that I would miss would be the ability to automatically add random transition effects.

Indeed, with Pitivi, I can add images, set the image clip duration, add a music and set it to fade out at the end of the clip. But I would have to manually add transitions effects between images which can be boring and time consuming.

Therefore I was thinking that a plugin could maybe do that ?

Genrelally speaking, a plugin system could add specialities to Pitivi.

Bonus : an plugin prototype could be to add random transitions ;)

Thanks

Mathieu actually wanted to (re)implement a plugin system into Pitivi, using libpeas. He has some experimental branch for that somewhere.
