Thanks! Improvements are needed 🙂
Great video editor! Please fix the audio the GVerb filter
Thanks for the input about audio effect. I added here https://invent.kde.org/kde/kdenlive/issues/350
I curious what’s the plan next after the release of 19.08.3?
Why the same plan we* have every year, E…
Take over the world!
* No, I’m not part of the dev team.
I have found a bug.
I use windows 10 64bits, and the last stable kdenlive, and, when i use the proxy files, and reopen a project…. they put ignore the proxy files and use the originals files.
The Folks at Kdenlive need to make Kdenlive use my Graphics Card when rendering out video and not the CPU. I put that Nvidia Graphics Card in for that purpose.
Technically it has to be implemented in MLT, the multimedia framework which Kdenlive runs on top of. It is an upstream issue that we don’t have the resources to do.
Great news! But, still I can’t see d:\ in file browser in windows. Option “Change speed” from right click on clip menu still does not allow to enter values from the keyboard. Please fix this
Which Windows version and CPU do you use? “change speed”: this is known under Windows. Here a workaround: https://invent.kde.org/kde/kdenlive/issues/173#note_6299
Thank you for reply. Yes, I have noticed that from upper menu it works. My system Win7, cpu: amd fx-8350.
Hello, any way to make the audio and video track in the Windows version bigger by default? Whenever I start kdenlive I have to fiddle with them.

Goto menu Help -> reset configuration. Then menu settings -> configure Kdenlive -> timeline -> track hight -> adjust as you like.
Thanks that fixed it. 🙂
Sorry if this one seems obvious, but how do I auto load a saved layout? I made my project monitor bigger and saved it on a layout named Default. I want to use that whenever I open the program no fiddling needed.
Hello!!
There is an error since version 19.04 (although part of the error was fixed in version 19.08). When I copy a clip which applies the inverted speed (Change Speed -> Reverse Clip), the clip does not load correctly. In version 19.04, this error always happened, but since version 19.08, it only happens when you copy that clip.
Thank you for the incredible work you are doing and I hope you can fix it. Regards!!
Hello !!
Wipe transition don’t work in 19.08 versions of kdenlive.
It produces black screen or just display the clip, then suddently the next one and then the first one again. Also, seems to desynchronise sound and video. Hope you can fix it!
Thanks for the work you have put into kdenlive !!
Issue seems to be resolved in this version, thanks !!
I’ve had to quit using Kdenlive for my time-dependent projects. The program is too laggy, jerky and slow for me to use. My editing pc is a Lenovo W540 laptop w/24gb ram, 512SSD … and doesn’t lag at all with other editing apps. I will continue to test and give but reports because I do believe in the project. However, I need an editor with a responsive timeline and that does not fail periodically, sometimes damaging my commercial projects. Keep at it, I know it will be great at some point. For me that time isn’t now. Cheers.
I’m just curious. So, what are you using instead?
Ive been using Cinelerra GG.
It seems you have an i7 CPU. Do you run Kdenlive on Windows? If yes I have the same issue with my i7 CPU. I’m investigating to find the root cause of the laggy behavior.
I’m running Kdenlive on a Lenovo W520, with O/S Linux Mint (Cinnamon) 18.03). The problem doesn’t exist with other editors I’ve been testing and now using. Actually the 18.x versions of Kdenlive run better too.
Kdenlive 19 freezes when I drag video from project big to timeline.
Do you run the AppImage? If not try with the AppIamage.
Yes that is how I use Kdenlive, On AppImage. I am runing it Manjaro linux. The one the seems to work is version 18.12.1b. HELP
These commands don’t work (since version 19): 8x8dct=1 pass=2 x264opts=”…”
Guys, are you serious?
Latest Kdenlive on Windows is an absolute joke, complete waste of time.
Bugs galore and very laggy.
If this is what the future holds for Kdenlive, I highly recommend the devs go write something else…..anything except a video editor.
I work with the Windows version as well. We know that there is an Intel graphic driver issue which can be solved downgrading the driver version. Working with an Intel i7 CPU leads to leggy reaction. Investigations are ongoing to solve that. What type of bugs you have?
