[Draft discussion] Video support

[icaria36]

@_ttc Can you explain briefly what “video support” means, please, for someone who has never seen video support in a DAW?

Video Track says:

You can use the video track to play back video events. Video files are displayed as events/clips on the video track, with thumbnails representing the frames in the film.

Is that it or is there more? It would be great if you could add these details in the description.

Secondary request here would be time based AND musical/grid cue markers, even better if these were on marker tracks like Cubase.

And maybe the smaller ask would be to have MTC sync input in addition to the MTC output Bitwig currently has - this would make it possible to more tightly sync with a second DAW, especially when there are tempo changes present in a project.

Would these be requests part of basic video support or could they be separate requests? In general we prefer to have requests as modular as possible so that users and developers can consider them one at a time. We can link them when they are related.
