Instead, the source bar moves. That's not intuitive. The total width should be as broad as the initial clip length. If I shorten the clip, then the bar should also shorten.\n- The preview does not reflect changes. This makes fine tuning difficult. My clips start or end too sharply - I'd like to have more space before the first and after the last wor", "SourceUrl": "https://github.com/mutonby/openshorts/issues/73", "PublishedAt": "2026-08-20T20:06:54.000Z", "State": "closed", "Comments": 1, "Reporter": "External", "Rank": "recent", "Extractor": "github_issue" }, { "Title": "feature request - blur license plates and faces", "Excerpt": "add the possibility to blur faces and license plates", "SourceUrl": "https://github.com/mutonby/openshorts/issues/71", "PublishedAt": "2026-08-19T08:37:01.000Z", "State": "open", "Comments": 0, "Reporter": "External", "Rank": "recent", "Extractor": "github_issue" }, { "Title": "Offer all functions for the same video", "Excerpt": "I'd like to suggest that openshorts interlinks the different modules more. What I mean is that instead of handling the video, its transcript etc. for each and every function, the different functions should instead be bundled within one project.

Also, I cannot get outside the start and endpoints. Both with timestamps or using the transcript.
