GNU Emacs: A multimedia editor

Simple cut, copy and paste operations. Thanks to VLC and FFMPEG, now you can use GNU Emacs for simple multimedia editing tasks. ​ Video: [https://youtu.be/F6HSf5D6TtA](https://youtu.be/F6HSf5D6TtA) Code: [https://gitlab.com/atamariya/emacs/-/blob/dev/src/xwidget.c](https://gitlab.com/atamariya/emacs/-/blob/dev/src/xwidget.c) [https://gitlab.com/atamariya/emacs/-/blob/dev/lisp/xwidget.el](https://gitlab.com/atamariya/emacs/-/blob/dev/lisp/xwidget.el) [https://gitlab.com/atamariya/emacs/-/blob/dev/lisp/media.el](https://gitlab.com/atamariya/emacs/-/blob/dev/lisp/media.el) ​ Details: [https://lifeofpenguin.blogspot.com/2022/01/gnu-emacs-multimedia-editor.html](https://lifeofpenguin.blogspot.com/2022/01/gnu-emacs-multimedia-editor.html)

Oh, you might like https://github.com/sachac/waveform-el for viewing the waveform . I've been using https://github.com/sachac/compile-media for compiling media with ffmpeg. I should look into making it work with the mark commands someday!

Respectfully, are you going to continue developing all this interesting, unrelated functionality in a single branch off an old version of Emacs? Or are you ever going to start working in feature branches and patches so that your work can be upstreamed and be useful to others? It seems like the longer you put this off, the harder it will be to rebase your work on top of current master.

Eventually I will. At present, I barely have enough time to build what I need. Any help is appreciated.
