[Traverso-devel] curious about trackstart units

[plutek-infinity]

howdy all!

i'm just looking into ways to import a bunch of timestamped files into 
traverso, and noticed a few things:

1. the clip properties dialog only goes to three decimal places for the 
trackstart time
2. the project file uses samples X 640 for the trackstart time
3. if i set a trackstart time in the dialog, with three zeroes in the decimal 
places (i.e. it should be even seconds), the trackstart time in the project 
file is not necessarily an exact multiple of samplerate X 640

so, some questions:

1. should we have more precision available in the clip dialog, so we can set 
clip times as accurately as they are represented in the project file -- or at 
least with samplerate accuracy?
2. what is the significance of samplerate X 640?
3. how are project file trackstart numbers and what we see in traverso actually 
related -- i.e. how is the increased precision in the project file dealt with, 
and what accounts for the (apparent) slight discrepencies between what i'm 
seeing in traverso and in the project file?

cheers!
