For the last versions, I have a problem with Kdenlive on Windows 10. Last version of Kdenlive that works for me is Kdenlive-18.08.2-w64. My computer is an old laptop, a Lenovo ThinkPad X201, with a 1st generation i5 CPU with the respective onboard GPU.
The problem: as soon as I save a project, the application hangs.
Any thoughts?
Download the Kdenlive standalone version 19.08.3. If Kdenlive still doesn’t start follow this steps: https://userbase.kde.org/Kdenlive/Manual/Windows_Issues#Cannot_open_projects_made_with_previous_version.2C_timeline_snaps_back.2C_cannot_import_clip
I tried all the advice at this webpage! Nothing changed! 🙁
Let me pinpoint the fact that Kdenlive starts normaly, but it crashes as soon as I save any project, even an empty one!
Goto help -> reset configuration. It still crashes? Does it crash even with “save as”? Do you save on a different drive which you have not full access?
Tried this as well. Still hangs on save or save as. Drive is the same as the app (system drive/partition) with full access.
Does it save when you run Kdenlive as administrator?
Tried this just now: it saves the project, but crashes after saving!
Trying to load this project afterwards, hangs Kdenlive.
Could you file a bug and attach the saved project file? It would help to find the root cause. Thank you for testing so far.
Ok, I will consider the option to file a bug report. Thank you for your help so far.
Switch to Linux Mint. Your laptop will run like new. I have a 5 year old Lenovo and use it for all my editing, no problem. Your problem is the resource hog, Windows 10.
I have used (succesfully) many GNU/Linux distributions with this laptop, but I would also like to be able to use Kdenlive with it on Windows 10 as well. 🙂
Yes, its is nice to have an app that runs well on multiple platforms. I’ve only used Kdenlive on Linux, so no experience with it on Windows. I currently don’t have any tools that require Windows (I always try to find alternatives).
When fix the fullscreen mode in windows 10 ?
Tested on Win10: hit CTRL+SHIFT+F
Yes, it goes fullscreen… but i can select the up menu toolbar
And will be implemented zooming in the preview window with mouse wheel? And the the existing way to extremely inconvenient.
I just love you guys
