Hi,
That seems very good and I start to make a video this morning with this new version but :
Now the names of the tracks not appear.
There is a problem and most of the time 1 frame in the timeline stay empty before a clip. It’s very difficult to move the clip at the right place.
Do you start with an existing project or from scratch? Does your track names contain special characters?
From scratch but now I think it’s good. I don’t know why that doing that at the beginning.
By the way, Automated mask don’t work, no analysis data was created.
Do you work with the AppImage 19.12.0a from the download page? Of not please do so.
I try appimage and normal version. Both do.
One thing awesome ! I render my video of 11min in FHD h265 and the final file is only 181mb !!! Before that was near 500mo
I need more test about that
Another problem, when you copy an effect from a clip or a track to another, the effect don’t work.
Same thing to me
How do you do copy an effect from one clip to another?
Wow, this looks like an awesome update. Well Done!
I’ve just installed on my ThinkPad X1 Carbon and when it opens full screen the GUI is massive in that I can only see the video/sound timelines, like it is zoomed in. If I minimize as it loads and hover over the shortcut the Win10 preview show correctly. As I then maximise it momentarily is displayed correctly then does this super zoom thing.
Maybe this statement helps: https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=265&t=161309#p425882
@Merlimau Yes that fixed it. One has tow minimize the window as small as possible so that when the ALT-F key is pressed you can then see the dropped-down menus, then use the right arrow key to iterate through all the menus.
You guys are amazing as always! I love this product, I do have Adobe after effect but still Kdenlive is my buddy more than 50% time.
Hi,
I don’t know if it was done on purpose or not but on AppImage 19.12.0a when you switch full screen on the project monitor, the clip pauses and you have to push play button to go on. The same thing happens when you turn the full screen off. It’s a little bit annoying since it wasn’t the case in previous versions.
Thanks.
Do you mean: playback the timeline -> move the playhead to another position -> you must press space to start playing. If so, yes this was a user request to have the same behavior as in Premiere and other editors.
As Merlimau said, we switched the functionality to be equal to how industry standard programs behave.
I see. In that case, it’s fine with me 🙂
Thanks for the update.
Unfortunately There is no “Speed Effect” in the motion section.
I was of course available before.
Just right click on a clip in the timeline and it will be there. It isn’t an effect anymore.
Great – but it still looks terrible on Ubuntu 19.10 and trying to switch to the gtk2 style always causes it to crash. ‘GLib-GObject-WARNING **: 12:56:39.588: cannot register existing type ‘GdkDisplayManager” leading to a segfault.
I recommend to use the Breeze style, since it has all the icons needed.
Great work !! Export is fast in Kdenlive 19.12 on gpu with nvenc, including effects. See two test export 1050ti & GTX660 with nvenc, pics screen & more info in the signature link.
Windows Defender found Trojan:Win32/Spursint.F!cl in https://files.kde.org/kdenlive/release/kdenlive-19.12.0.exe
This seems to be a false positive. Can you provide maybe more information?
In render mode, 19.08.3b-x86_64.appimage is twice as fast as 19.12.0a-x86_64.appimage. No kidding, out of the box with no tweaking at all for both versions. I took the exact same clip with the exact same features and it took about 3 hours on 19.08.3b.appimage and over 7 hours on 19.12.0a-x86_64.appimage to render.
I think I’ve missed something here but can not see what.
Thanks.
I think I found the answer. In the rendering window, in More Options check box, my Threads was at 0 in 19.12.0a but at 1 in 19.08.3b. So, if I set it to 1 in 19.12.0a, it’s now rendering at a relative same time then 19.08.3b 🙂
Copying a clip with inverted speed does not work and the waveform does not reflect the actual shape when a speed change is applied. Those are the two bug I’ve found.
Regardless of that, really thanks for the great work you are still doing. It really is incredible.
Kdenlive 19.12 – how to enable Hardware Encoding (NVENC)
Kdenlive is good but you have gpu acceleration with nvidia card kepler or better, you must to install default in Manjaro Kde * (no use .appimage). Now some effects are supported by gpu and dramatically shorten the export time.
Kdenlive 19.12 in Manjaro kde, install first time v19.08.3 – sudo pacman -S kdenlive
After update with 19.12: To update must download on repo arch kdenlive-19.12.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz ,and click to install.
To work with nvidia nvenc, you must have Auto Install Proprietary Driver
How to Enable Hardware Encoding (NVENC), use f=mp4 vcodec=nvenc_h264 vb=30000k acodec=aac ab=192k, you can change bitrates as you want.
In signature link I atached more info and 3 export test with nvidia k2000m, gtx660 and gtx1050ti.
did not work. I have sound, not image
Add 700 files in multiple folders to the project and it is impossible to work. Eats memory, brakes and hangs. Not a functional project bin. You have to do a lot of unnecessary movements to select the desired clip. The application is not designed for large projects.
Indeed, really large projects are a performance problem. With 19.12.0 we solved a big memory leakage in the timeline. Do you have an idea for a better organized project bin?
The memory problem is not solved. Add 200 clips to the project and put them on the timeline.
You are right. I don’t have so many clips to load. Could you make a test and post the result here? Starting Kdenlive -> see the RAM needed. Loading the project with 500 clips (FullHD or 4K?) -> see the RAM needed.
500 placeholders (1080p25fps ) in the project bin would need 3.5GB of RAM.
Hi! I am not the OP, but I would love the ability to have a project bin where I could keep saved zones (.mlt files) even after having removed the original clips that they refer to. When editing my first step invariably is to go over all material and chop it into little chunks with descriptive names using the “save zone” feature. I would love if the project bin would allow me to keep in there all these saved zones and discard the original clips, for which I no longer have any use at all once I move on to editing after this initial triage step. Thanks for reading!
Can you explain why you would want to remove the original clips? I basically do the logging/triaging by inserting zones I need to the timeline. Never used the save zones but it seems handy. To me the bin is for organizing the raw footage and the timeline is for “mounting” the footage. Do other programs behave that way? Is there a concept or paradigm? Might be interesting. Anyway, there are more nifty improvements coming to the project bin: https://invent.kde.org/kde/kdenlive/issues/287
Feel free to comment there your request.
Kdenlive 19.12 still has corrupted ui
I assume you are on Windows. Following this description: https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=265&t=161309#p425882
God bless Kdenlive. Finally I’ve found a good open-sourced video editing software for my mac with the help of a friend
It’s a Christmas miracle :))
How did you manage to get it working on a mac?
I was really impressed by version 19.04 complete overhaul, and now I’m really pleased by 19.12 AppImage. It seems to be the polished version I was hoping for, with a fully working clip monitor and Bézier curves effect. Thanks a lot for making it real!
On Windows rotoscoping effect does not work with recent update. While I checked on 19.08.3 and 19.04.3-1.
The problem: when I apply the rotoscoping effect the monitor is displayed as filled vertically (i.e. the clip is displayed as rotated by 180 degrees). When trying to click by left mouse button to create a region – it does not display nodes. Sometimes the image on monitors flips vertically to the right position. Then after moving mouse it maybe be flipped again and again. Then I finish to draw the region (I don’t see the nodes displayed thus I draw it in blind) by right mouse button and I try to preview/play on timeline – the rotoscoping works.
Thus this is the problem of node selection/displaying and flipping the image on monitor in the resent version 19.12.0.
Some rotoscoping problems are solved. And you can add additional points to an already closed mask. Please try with the nightly build: https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/Kdenlive_Nightly_mingw64/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/
Great work! Thanks! Master Effects is the feature I’ m waiting for. It is best for Sony s-log LUTs and other stuff 🙂
My namesake Anton reported memory problem above. So some test for FullHD project with many clips.
Filmed by Sony a6300. FPS: 50, Codec XAVC. Also it have some clips on timeline.
Project Settings-> Project Files:
Clips in project: 35 4.2 Gb
Unused clips: 65 5.5 Gb
Project Settings-> Cashe data:
Audio thumbnails 2.1 Mb
Video thumbnails 182.0 Mb
Memory by KDE System monitor:
Kdenlive started: 148.7 Mib
Project loaded: 4.4 Gb (!!!)
Project with clip placeholders: 746.1 Mib
Thanks for making Kdenlive, it’s getting better and better! But I really miss a compressor for the audio, a compressor is essential for audio, even in films.
Also, many of the audio plugin’s parameters show up twice with slightly different names in the properties windows. If we, for example, take the highpass filter, the frequency parameter is there twice, with the labels: “av.frequency” and “av.f” and the other parameters do also show up with long and short versions.
I’m using Kdenlive 19.12 (AppImage) on Kubuntu 18.04.3.
No, there is no compressor effect available. Kdenlive runs on top of MLT and unfortunately MLT has no support for Lv2 effects. If MLT would have support for Lv2 effects we could use the multiband compressor from “https://calf-studio-gear.org/doc/Multiband Compressor.html”.
Thank you for heads up about the effects problems. Will have a look.
Thanks for answering! 🙂
I think it might be a workaround for these limitations. As I understand it, MLT is jack aware. So if Kdenlive connects to jack via MLT, then Kdenlive should have access to all the wonderful LADSPA, LV2 and VST plugins on the system.
Is there any chance that you can make Kdenlive jack aware? To be able to do everything within the timeline makes the workflow so much smoother.
Thanks!
On the other hand: One can always export a finished video track plus audio and import them directly into for example Ardour or Mixbus who kan have a video track and then edit the sound from there.
After that, one can import the finished audio track into Kdenlive and then render the finished video.
It might be the best idea anyway.
When clicking on clip then speed there is no option to slow down, only speed up – is there a way to slow down clips?
Disregard my previous, I found the answer- click on the clip in the project bin not in the timeline.
Running Kdenlive 17.12.3 on Linux Mint 19.3 Cinnamon from your PPA: “deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kdenlive/kdenlive-stable/ubuntu bionic main”
Most recent update breaks Kdenlive. Launching it from terminal showed tons of blacklisted items, then something regarding (IIRC) duplicate entries for some frei0r* things, then that there is an issue with the breeze theme, that ladspa is not available and a few more.
I used TimeShift to revert to previous version using a snapshot from 10.1.2020 and it’s working again.
I have no idea how to address this issue so I will put those PPA updates for Kdenlive on hold for a while OR until I’ll be coming across some additional information on your site.
Hello, I am new to Kdenlive, I used to use adobe in windows 10, but now I go to Ubuntu and I am working with kdenlive and it is going great, I am Mexican and I will make videos of kdenlive in my Latin Spanish language, greetings.
Pasted text in the title clip editor is impossible to read. It puts the highlighter on it when trying to edit the text so you get white on white. Not sure if this is a bug but it would be nice to fix.
what is this red audio track? How do I prevent it from appearing?
It is a visual glitch. This bug doesn’t affect your editing though. 😉
I go through a clip and mark each piece I want with Set Zone In/Out and then I add the zone to project bin. I give the zone a name and do this for all the bits of the clip I want. However when I then move the named zones from the bin to the timeline they do not show up with their name, they all appear with the parent clip filename. Is there a way to get them to show in the timeline with useful names (otherwise I just have a tone of zone segments all labelled the same). I tried to use the marker functionality but that means just relabeling everything I have already labelled..
Thank you for the input. We track the issue under https://invent.kde.org/kde/kdenlive/-/issues/641.
