Hello
I agreed with this idea .
since the word LMMS is an abbreviation of Lunix Multi Media Studio. and the word Multimedia is general meaning of audio video content.
until now, LMMS still handling the word Multimedia for audio only or , I think LMMS will become Lunix Music Maker Studio. :)

I don't blame the word Lunix itself. my focus in word Multimedia that doesn't had a real function in the software itself :).
I know it's not that important since most people know more about word "LMMS" than its full name

hmm, that's worse. we know that Fruity Loops Studio now known as FL Studio and it become quite popular with this short name. So, if someone asked about what FL stands for, it has.
anyway, I won't this topic goes to judge the name of the software. including video player option in LMMS is cool feature of multimedia Studio.

that's all :)

I think we decided a while back that LMMS doesn't stand for anything

.. sounds chillingly similar to most danish political parties........

Naee c'on ..
Lucas(?) gave the perfect LMMS acronym explanation, believe almost 2 y ago now.. ?

Now just to address the actual topic, down the road in a distant future lmms could have video, sure, but right now, imo there is 100+1 more important things to look at.

This pipe dream has no basis for reality, at least not in the forseable future.

I agree with Tres, this is pretty much out of scope now.

It is the I that was looking for to edit the sound of the http://4232.cf

I think that could add synchronism in jack and not having to use a linea of time. Only xjadeo or blender and jack

example musescore:

Why is this closed? I am trying to make a sound track for a video, and I am surprised that LMMS does not have the option. If Davinci Resolve has a piano roll feature I would definitely use Davinci, but it doesn't. I know that most other DAWs like Logic, FL Studio and Cubase, they all have built in video players or video track feature and this helps much when making video soundtrack. This is important, we need to see what's on the visual to sync it with the music, like an explosion in the video syncing with a heavy bass drum beat.

So you guys thought this was not important? How should we make soundtracks for videos without being able to sync the video with the music in the timeline? Now a workaround might be finding a video player vst that works with LMMS, but I have yet to find one. Or just simply switch to other softwares.

@EaryChow

It's not that the feature is not important, obviously importance is a matter of personal needs as well. It's just that at the current state and focus of LMMS, there are lots of other features that are deemed more important and that already require lots of labor (all of which is volunteer work). I think most developers, and probably most users, are inclined to the music production side of LMMS and there are lots of features being worked on towards that. Video support is a HUGE task, and it's not that it's never going to happen, just that it's probably not happening in a near future. For that reason I believe @tresf closed the issue, to keep the issue tracking cleaner. But it can be reopened when a volunteer shows up willing to take this task.

Edit: That's my personal opinion on it, not the whole developing team's opinion.

Alright then

How should we make soundtracks for videos without being able to sync the video with the music in the timeline?

LMMS can barely do this with audio tracks. In regards to syncing, perhaps a JACK control between LMMS and a video player could sync the playback as a stop-gap, but I'm not a JACK user so perhaps someone with experience could offer steps to help.

If LMMS could support JACK-transport, then we could sync it with any other JACK-transport-able application, including Xjadeo.
