Browsing the Jahshaka Forums I found MLT today, it’s incredible, it seems to do everything I ever wanted to do in OpenME, I’ll definitely look into this. I skimmed the docs, and the APIs seem to be as simple as necessary but not any simpler
Really a remarkable Project.

Hello Richard. Looking over your OpenME project, I think we have compatible philosophies. You should swing by #mlt on irc.gnome.org and check out some of the work i’ve done on my website relating to mlt.

Hi,
Many thanks for your enthusiatic comments
- MLT should indeed be useful for your OpenME project.
Just FYI: There’s already a fltk based video editor based on MLT, but it’s focus is very narrow (designed for a TV broadcaster with news desk usage in mind). Details can be found at:

You’ll find the source code in the MLT repository.
Anyway, if you want some more info on MLT, feel free to contact us (via IRC or the mailing list).
Also keep checking out what’s happening with Jah
- there’s quite a bit more planned…
Cheers,
Charlie
