Jahshaka

Jahshaka is an open source realtime video editing and effects suite, based on Qt and openlibraries.

Work on Jahshaka falls into two halves:

• V2: extension of legacy code, implementation of a custom style, re-work of layout code.
• V3: jahshaka was re-designed using python as a glue layer between openlibraries and jahshaka. A system was implemented to allow binding of Qt properties to openlibraries properties from within python. This, coupled with dynamic loading of .ui files allows the user interface to built or re-configured without re-compilation of the application.

Technical notes:

• based on Qt3
• deployed on Windows, OS X, Linux
• custom widgets
• custom styles
• custom interface to python
• system to link Qt properties to Openlibraries properties
