Import timestamps

[Bindkedon]

The fewer issues I have to read, the more new features I will have time to implement, so I ask that you please try these things first

• Check out all the menus and keyboard shortcuts. Maybe the feature already exists?
• Try with the newest version from GitHub
• Read the documentation and FAQ, Known issues, Troubleshooting to see if the feature already exists
• See if someone already suggested this under Issues or Discussions

Description

It's very convenient to be able to export timestamps (.csv). Why can't they be imported? Unfortunately, only frame numbers and milliseconds (Time in seconds) can be imported as .csv files. This would be very helpful for better interaction with other players and programs.

This, right here.
Even because it can't import .edl from MPC-HC (by far the best video player for Windows).
(format is also simple timestamps)

what exactly does the desired csv format look like? see also #1340

[Bindkedon]

00:01:30.188 = HH:MM:SS.ms in and out times like:

 A                     B

1 00:01:30.188 00:02:54.510
2 00:06:08.818 00:09:06.994

excel spreadsheet. (csv)

But I've seen you have planned to import it at #1340.

[mifi]

are there 3 columns and a header (with A and B), like this?

	A	B
1	00:01:30.188	00:02:54.510
2	00:06:08.818	00:09:06.994
...	...	...

Yes, exactly, but with the same number of lines as there are ins and outs. A is in, B is out of every segment.
The same format as you get when you export timestamps (CSV).
