Optional audio mute while mouse scrubbing

Post by cosmowe »

Hey there,
it's a long time till my last feature request ;)

Thanks to corona, the bad software support of playback pro and the great work of the Resolume-Team making Resolume insensitive for last minute client-drops of H264, ProRess and other codecs, more and more videoguys in my bubble are using Resolume as their goto software for their corporate streaming jobs.

Playing image-trailers, lower-thirds, Stingers, pre-recorded CEO speeches and feeding Powerpoint through our capture devices. The world has changed a bit....for some time :)


Here is my feature wish :idea:

Corporate jobs often have rehearsals where show part changes are rehearsed.

"director over intercom":
Allright guys, lets do that again. Cosmowe please jump to the last 10 seconds of the video.

So...I grab the now-pointer of the clip in Resolume and scrub it to the last 10 seconds.

What happens? - Everyone in the room hears the scubbing noise of the clip.
My workaround is to use the volume knob of the external sound-card.

So I lower the volume, scrub to the last 10 seconds, shout "10 seconds" into the intercom mic and re-rise the volume with the knob. Sure, I can also map a keyboard shortcut to mute the layer audio.....but these are just workarounds.

I would love to see an option in the config which says

Mute audio while mouse scrubbing [x]

Alternative: Cntrl + Mouse-scrubbing = no audio playback

Vote up if you also like this idea....... :)




Best wishes
