Here is the scenario I would like to use it - I have a video file from which I need to:
1) grab selectable number of stills at current video resolution and store to the folder - let`s say 100 stills from video ideally with hw support if grabbing from 4K x265 file to be fast.
2) grab selectable number of stills preferably into the UI to be able to pick some of thumbs, reorder it in the timeline and than be able to export it as animated GIF with selectable delay between frames (now there is only selectable to 1500 ms, I would like 2000 ms or more). I see that there is a Hardcode Times which looks like it can be used for this, unfortunately I can`t see video there..just black screen (bellow). Current possibilities are cool, but would be nice to select specific frames from video to be used for GIF generator.
3) be able to make clip preview - Animation is good, but can not specify, where to start creating preview (like is possible in "Advanced timeline control" affecting grabbing of stills for animated gif).
Maybe a bug
1) when trying to export animation as h264 mp4 selecting it from "Animation settings" it only work if "Animate as single frame" is chosen. If I choose "Animate within thumbnail set" and hit "Magic" button to create it, no mp4 file is made and error red button light. From log there is:
[INFO] [12:13:57] Program is started (x64)

2) when creating mp4 preview with Simple matrix - it produce mp4 in resolution of source video. But when creating the same in Special matrix - it upscale video (in this case 1280x720) to 2565x1445! Why?
Nvidia drivers are latest, VTM 24, Win 11, GTX 1060.
Hope I described it ok, if not, please write me and I will try to explain better. Thanks for your support!
