I am not going to request anything. I know it's free and that I should fix it if I am not happy but I can't. I have not the beginning of any idea of how to code anything in C, let alone something as complex as video editing.
The problem with open source is that since most people will not pay for what they use, even if asked nicely, there is hardly any prospect for the developper to spend more time on his project and make it better/more reliable.
I hope opensource developpers will look for more ways to fund their efforts. They should experiment with a few schemes and not be affraid of the bitching crowd of those would care for opensource only insofar as it cost nothing.
