Dear everyone: After having to bear what seemed to be the worst year of my entire life, suffering the flu, unemployment, a huge debt and personal relationships problem, I have a couple of good news for ya.
1) I have a stable job!! And a very good one, to be honest. It doesn't give me too much free time, but it has helped me to develop my programming skills. My latest toy was a JSON to HTML template engine (this project was actually what led me to the next news).
2) Development on Saya has been restarted!... kinda. Don't get your hopes up, Saya is from now on considered a long-term garage project, with very little chances of succeeding. But I'm committed to at least deliver a usable GUI for a video editor. Instead of focusing on the multithread processing and video handling, I'll start over with the GUI now. Later, if the GUI seems good, and the widgets work, I'll work on tying Saya to an existing video editing framework.
3) The latest development on the UI is the playback control, now with a jog dial for easy frame skipping:
(Yes, the buttons are ugly, but later we can work on that). Next: Making the shuttle control (to the left of the "Display" text) pretty, and functional.
4) If you would like to join the project and help me perform code archaeology on the project (and find out what the hell I was doing on some files), you're welcome to join.
See ya!
