Waveform editor improvements #1426

Description

@cavis

The waveform UI is now involved in stream-recording. Some improvements may be in order to make it easier working with 1 hour clips.

Laundry list of ideas (not saying we need to do all of these):

  • Start playback position at end of preroll slice
  • Spacebar to play/pause, if any part of the waveform UI is focused.
  • I and O for marking in and out points
  • Other keyboard shortcuts for marking breaks? (Vs pre/post slicing)
  • Arrows to nav left-right.
  • Maybe also mouse scroll left-right? And the usual DAW zoom controls? Overkill?
  • Maybe a different UX to allow users to "select" the timeframe they want to crop to?
  • Pre/Post are kind of misnomers for the recorded hours. More like, "this is where we think the top of the hour is".
  • The timestamp 00:00 numbers aren't editable. Are they just a background or something?
  • Allow zooming all the way out
  • Update view while dragging the horizontal scrollbar
  • An actual playhead instead of the change in color
  • Some sort of bug I haven't tracked down yet ... clips copied to episodes always look like their segmentation "changed" to the media page. Naving away warns you about unsaved changes.
