When you hold down the Shift key and select a file on the MRU list, the Extended Options dialog is automatically opened. It would also be nice if the Extended Options dialog could be automatically opened when dropping a new movie on the VirtualDub window or from the command line.

Maybe something like this?

for Drag and Drop, in src\VirtualDub\source\projectui.cpp, change line 1783 from
CODE
Open(filename.c_str(), NULL, false);

to

const bool bExtendedOpen = (signed short)GetAsyncKeyState(VK_SHIFT) < 0;
Open(filename.c_str(), NULL, bExtendedOpen);


for the command line, in src\VirtualDub\source\Init.cpp, change lines 714-715 from
CODE
else
       g_project->Open(token);

to

else {
       const bool bExtendedOpen = (signed short)GetAsyncKeyState(VK_SHIFT) < 0;
       g_project->Open(token, NULL, bExtendedOpen);
}


Thanks,

Josh

Makes sense for drag-and-drop... not sure I want to do it for the command-line, since that mixes cmdline and UI. Seems like a switch would be better for that, unless there's something I'm missing...?

I open 80-90% of my movies by right clicking on them and choosing "open with" VirtualDub. This ends up running through the command line processor, so that's why I thought to put it there. For this situation, maybe there's somewhere better in the chain to put it?

Hi, I think holding the shift-key is a good way to open the extended options dialog.

But let me ask for another, maybe a bit forgotten request:
"How far are we away" from the possibility to fade audio (wav) like I can do it with video?
In my opinion no special other audio-effects are needed only fading would be great.

Thanks very much from a VirtualDub-happy-user
