Feature request: ability to set a HyperDeck Play timeline object to the exact duration of the clip
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When a user adds a HyperDeck clip to a timeline, they probably want to play the entire clip. Currently this means that they must go into some other software, grab the exact duration in hours:minutes:seconds:milliseconds, then enter that value into the duration field.
Describe the solution you'd like I'd like to see two changes:
- Make the default duration of these timeline objects be the actual duration of the clip
- Provide a button to reset back to this duration
Additional context HyperDeck functionality is not merged yet but likely will be soon: https://github.com/SuperFlyTV/SuperConductor/pull/71
Change 1 (setting duration when adding hyperdeck-resources), seems like a good idea! I don't have a hyperdeck at hand right now, but I imagine it could be implemented in a similar manner as how the CasparCG-flow works.
Change 2 (Add a button to reset back to the Resource duration), seems like an excellent idea, and should be implemented in a generic way so it works for other types of Resources (CasparCG) as well.
Feel free to submit a Pull Request with these (preferably as separate PR:s), or I might also look into it some time in the future. 👍
There should also be a setting on the device to set a default postroll duration as well as a setting on each clip for a postroll duration.
