Zoom animation on photo gives glitches

Do you know which version of MLT you have on your system?

Hi Andy,

Thank you for your quick reply.
Are you referrering to libmlt3?
Then, I have version:
0.6.2-2
I do use some repos, but this is the Natty included version.

Kind regards,
Vincent

Can you also check if the smooth scaling option is activated in the preferences?

Hi Andy,

The smooth scaling setting was off.
I have enabled it and tried again, then it worked.
So a good workaround :).

Thank you for the quick reponse once again.
I hope Openshot will get some handy keyboard shortcuts for cutting and
stuff, because it is really the only usable videoeditor for my laptop!
Thank you very much for an awesome job, it has more potential than pitivi I
think :).

Kind regards,
Vincent

Have a look at the documentation for keyboard shortcuts:

Hi Andy,

Thank you,I will, I guess I was expecting to see them in the GUI.
By the way, does invalid mean that it will not be fixed?
Still seems like an issue to me, which could be solved by automatic setting
of smoothing when this feature is used?
Thank you!

Kind regards,
Vincent

The manual setting is a temporary measure as it is dependent on verion 0.6 and above of MLT. We were going to remove the manual setting once the major distributions had caught up with their MLT packages, which they may have now, we need to check.
