Possibly Developing a Video App
Posted February 13th, 2010 @ 06:20pm by Erik J. Barzeski
So, for various reasons, I'm looking at developing some basic video software. Or, more likely, hiring someone to do it.
Basically, the software should:
- Play video at regular speed, slow speed, and allow for frame-by-frame stepping through.
- Play two separate videos side-by-side within the same window.
- Allow the video to be repositioned, grown, etc. in the video window to fit the full frame and/or the half frame.
- Include a few very basic drawing tools.
- Include the ability to narrate (capture audio).
- Be able to export to a new video file with all of the above.
In other words, I want to create a Mac version of V1. V1 sells for about $800 but is buggy as shit and can't even rotate a video 90°. Yeah - it's that terrible.
But they've got the market somewhat cornered.
A partner and I would like to work with someone on a Mac version (with a Windows version well down the road) of a simple program that does what it needs to do. I can envision two versions: a "Student" and a "Teacher" edition, selling at perhaps $49 and $299.
Is anyone interested?
