Feature request: syncing a video with a score (without extra software)
A crucial feature in composing for films is to know when something happens so you can write music for that moment. It is tedious to go back and forth between MuseScore and a video editor/view to locate time stamps. And it isn’t as accurate. I heard that this was a thing at least with MuseScore 3, but it required hooking up to another piece of software. I am not quite sure how this would work, but watch a movie/short film and listen to the score, and how it is synced up with the film and the mood and events line up. For instance, a chord sounds exactly when a person falls into a hole or something. To be able to watch a video with your score and edit accordingly within the same window would be revolutionary for video game and film composers.

Maybe it could be another default plug-in.

I’m imagining a window at the top of the screen with a drop-down window which has such functions as a video editor does. Then the timeline would have any markers you set up in the video. Possibly a click track/timecode instrument old be added with this plug-in.
Should I put this in the plugins forum as a commission?

I would love to have synch with video on MuseScore. It's actually a basic necessity when scoring for pictures.
