video tracker

is there a tracker program out there that lets you bodge
video instead of mere samples?

curious how they handle mixing down the video, if so

cheap chinese junk is not easy. it's not easy to eliminate
parts and make stuff cheap cheap cheap and still work... so
i'm going to zoom up a little bit like thhiiiiiisss and
explain:

someone linked me this video -- which is actually pretty
interesting -- and i've heard a sample in it. i
want to zoom in like thiiiiiisss and thiiiiisss is dragged
out to some drum breaks and 303 noises that feel like
they're zooming in.

i am told zoom teardown man has other videos with more
samples. focus you fuck! the videos are interesting and i
think i may watch them for relax and just write down the
moments that i hear as samples.

in any case, it got me thinking about video trackers again.
i've been working with .XM mode files for my trax, and i was
imagining you could extend .XM to something like .VXM for
Video MOD.

mod/XM stores the audio samples inside the .XM file, .VXM
would store audio and video.

milkytracker is open-source. perhaps it could be extended
for .VXM -- more or less, add a second effect column for
video effects...

bodging a video surface into milkytracker sounds terrible,
so i figure it'd be best to do what kdenlive does and talk
to melt/MLT to live-generate the video.

except, kdenlive generates giant xml files and invokes
melt/mlt for each playback. this is terrible and slow and
buggy. this is why kdenlive sucks -- or did, last i used
it.

melt/mlt supports a "live server" but i've not had much
luck getting it to work before.

this is a fine idea and i may grab the milkytracker source
but in all likelihood i will must make another track instead
of a video tracker.
