[Feature Request] Hotkey remapping

Open reasonium opened this issue 6 months ago • 7 comments

Pleeeeease add custom mappable hotkeys to cut video without encoding. We have a LOT of video files and want to rapidly perform a lot of cuts to trim a single large video into a lot of individual clips without losing any quality.

Specific custom hotkey mappings we would like:

  • Next frame
  • Prev frame
  • Pause
  • Play
  • Forward increment (5 sec or 10 sec)
  • Rewind increment (5 sec or 10 sec)
  • Speed up/forward playback ... If playing at 1x speed, then pressing once modifies forward speed = 2x, twice = 4x, thrice = 8x ... but if playing at a slower rewind speed (see below), then it will decrease rewind speed in similar increments in the opposite direction.
  • Slow down/rewind playback ... If playing at 1x speed, then pressing once modifies rewind speed = 2x, twice = 4x, thrice = 8x ... but if playing at a faster forward speed (see above), then it will decrease forward speed in similar increments in the opposite direction.

This request is associated with another feature request for multi-cut without encoding. https://github.com/paulpacifico/shutter-encoder/issues/337

Here are the shorctuts:

Next/Previous frame -> use arrows Play/Pause -> Spacebar or K Backward/Forward increment -> J & L Speed up/Slow down -> Ctrl + or Ctrl -

In addition:

Set in/out points -> I & O Go to in/out points -> Maj + I or Maj + O Add to queue/Start function -> Ctrl + Enter

Ideally it would be possible to use customized shortcut where you can assign i.e.

  • PAGE UP = GOTO IN
  • PAGE DOWN = GOTO OUT.
  • SHIFT + RIGHT = forward 1 second
  • SHIFT + LEFT = back 1 second
  • CTRL + RIGHT = forward 10 second
  • CTRL + LEFT = back 10 second

I switched CTRL for ALT because of technical reasons.

@paulpacifico My suggestion is to support customized shortcuts rather than fixed ones. That means there should be a config file which may be modified by the user via a menu entry.

Something like this:

Yes I've understood too, but I need to take the time to build this!
