codingdirectional: Further modifying the video editing application

Our video editing application project is nearly completed so then let us continue to modify it in this post. In this new code edition we will include the repeat scale box which allows the user to select how many times he wishes the video to repeat, the fps scale box which allows the user to select the fps for the new video, besides that we have also included the video format combo box where the user can select which new video format he wishes his new video to have. Below is the entire program.

If you run the above program you will get below outcome.

The new video editor user interface

The above program needs more edits so stay tuned for the next chapter.
