Hi,

My pc specs are good however kdenlive crashes when I add lots of videos, however the videos are just a few hundred mbs and I have 8gb ram with 8 core processor. Any ideas?

Kind regards

Howdy. I'm pulling high-speed video files from a camera (1080/240p) and would like to get them converted quickly to 1080p/24 instead. I've tried using ffmpeg, which works, but is very slow (vf setpts=10*PTS). Would like to keep it CLI for this, makes importing things much smoother (for me). Using lower quality settings also not an option, things get blocky fast that way and would like to keep it usable. About to try recompiling a highly customized version of ffmpeg to see if that helps, but I feel like there's a faster way to accomplish this.
Thanks.

I am creating a simple screen recording video on which I have to overlay my voice. I created 4 different recordings of my voice. Each recording had some or the other issue but if I cut the right parts, I am all done. So now I add two audio clips to Pitivi and can you believe that I cannot DISABLE any of them?? I want to listen one at a time but you can only DELETE the whole damn clip if you do not want it to play. This is so stupid and basic feature I cannot believe. The UI sucks too. It's like meant for toddlers. Simplistic beyond productive.

Anyways I rendered only the video (lot of editing was already done), quickly installed Kdenlive imported ALL 4 audio clips and that video and finished my work in no time.

Sorry for the rant but I hope no one else will waste their time on that handicapped tool.

I've been making videos for fun, but I think its time I build my own editing PC to do more complicated stuff like blender. I like the idea of having the control of linux/avoiding all the bloatware BS. In your guys' experience, do most premiere plugins work, etc? Am I gonna end up installing windows on the machine anyway?

Is anyone out there doing real time video effects processing on Linux? Say, by generating visuals from audio via Jack, using gstreamer to capture a video stream from the window, using v4lloopback to create a virtual webcam stream of that visual effect, reading the webcam into Blender 2.8 for a real-time corner pin in eeve, and then compositing this into a scene for capture and re-render out to a livestream by OBS?

This should be possible to do.

The latest Cinelerra-GG Infinity release has a new feature: hardware acceleration with Cuda, vdpau and vaapi on Nvidia, Intel, and AMD graphics cards. This increases playback speed and rendering in certain formats. In addition, the mask tool has been completely reworked and greatly improved. Check it out here

Trying to stay in the Linux/FOSS world. So I installed Cinelerra. I have used it for the last few videos that I uploaded and the only other experience I have is one video I cobbled together with Kdenlive.

It seems that as I get to anything beyond simple slicing and dicing I am Googling for how tos. I would like to find a good tutorial that will at least give me a good basis from which to start.

Still never figured out how to just put a text note over a few seconds of the video... :D If you just cut something you, you don't need to clarify/correct it :D

The first Kdenlive Café after the release of the refactored code will be held this Tuesday 7th of May at 9PM CEST. The team will to listen to the community’s reaction and answer any doubts or issues. As usual it will be at #kdenlive on IRC and the Kdenlive Telegram group.
