When I open a recent session, I almost always want it to open to my last edit point so I can continue where I left off. Instead, it always opens at the beginning of the session. That means I either have to remember to place a marker where I left off or I have to write down the time stamp. Or more often I forget to do either and have to go searching for my last edit point!

This could be fixed by showing a dialogue box when you close the session. There could be a check box to return to this point when the session is reopened. The ability to make that the default would be nice too.

As a journalist i'm very picky about who I do share my data with (even indirectly). So I really don't want to upload my recordings to soundcloud (and neither i'd do with dropbox, google-drive, etc).
if you would add an option under "share" to upload recordings to a free-to-pick hoster, using the webdav-protocol it would help much. like i have set-up my own little cloud (using nextcloud/owncloud) to exactly control access of my data. and - as a nice side-effect - they stay with me!

so the feature-request is: pls add an option to upload files to nextcloud (aka webdav)

ps: as i'm not working much with my hindenburg journalist pro (windows) software i just don't know if it's possible to save to a webdav-server as well... if not it would be a very nice option to have as well :-)

Often, when producing DTBs, my team is dealing with audio files which has already been logically organized according to a book structure element, whether that is primary headings, or pages. What would be an incredible addition from our perspective is the ability to place navpoints in bulk at the beginning of each audio file.

An example case would be creating a DAISY 2.02 DTB in which the source audio files each represent a page of text. In the existing HABC build, a user would have to Tab->Click "Page" (or key-press) to add each nav element.

I'm happy to discuss this feature request more in-depth.

We've recently begun testing HABC as a replacement for our current DAISY 2.02 production suite and workflow. During our testing we've noticed that the resulting output does not initially pass DAISY 2.02 validation using the industry standard tool (https://code.google.com/archive/p/daisytools/). Two small additions/modifications to the metadata creation seem to be necessary.

ncc:multimediaType needs the content value of "audioNCC" in addition to the other content values.

ncc:sourceEdition is only a recommended field per the specification, but it seems to throw a warning in the validation tool when it is not included.

By modifying the ncc.html output from HABC to include the above changes, I was able to produce a DAISY 2.02 title with no errors in the validator.

Just a quick note. In early edits of an interview I always plant markers for different segments of the interview.

But in the second sweep of edits I will often rearrange the interview entirely- or open gaps up to slot other speakers into the sames section.

It's very easy to move big chunks of audio clips with the 'Select to End' shortcut. But the markers remain behind- and I have to try and recognise by eye where to replant them.

Could there be some way to make the markers 'sticky' so that they attach to a particular clip or group of clips? That way when the interview is rearranged, the marker flag for a given section follows along regardless?

I think this would be very useful!

Hi there, I'm a former video producer. I've been using DAWs like Hindeberg, ProTools, and Audition for a while now. Given that DAWS are almost always designed for something other than podcast/radio/narrative workflow, I think Hindenberg should consider adopting some of the workflow features of NLEs like Avid or Premiere. Specifically, I am talking about having a separate window for your source material, where you can type in a timecode, or make a selection, and then insert it into wherever your cursor is on the project timeline. This would be a far superior way to work than making a ton of subclips or putting your raw material 2 hours later in the project timeline.

If this is not clear at all, please give me a call or contact me and I'd be happy to explain. This would make working with Hindenberg potentially faster than other DAWs, for the purpose of radio/podcasting
