With version 21.12 just around the corner, we are releasing the first beta version (21.11.80) for testing. Try it out and help find breakages in your daily usage or bugs in these new features:
Multiple Project Bins
You may now create multiple bins by right clicking on a folder and choosing the open in new bin option.
Multicam editing
Add your clips in different tracks, but at the same position in the timeline and activate the multicam tool by going to menu Tool -> Multicam tool. You may trim the clips in the desired track while the timeline is playing by pressing their corresponding numbers (for track V1, press key 1; for track V2 press key 2, etc…) or simply select the desired track in the monitor by clicking on it with the mouse.
Same-track transitions
This release drastically Improved the same-track transition mode. Activate it by selecting a clip in the timeline and pressing the shortcut U or going to the menu Timeline -> Current clip -> Mix Clips.
Slip trimming mode
Select a clip in the timeline and go to menu Tool -> Slip tool. You may then slip the clip in the timeline to dragging it.
Ripple trimming mode
Select a clip in the timeline and go to menu Tool -> Ripple tool. Note that Ripple doesn’t work with same-track transitions yet. You may then ripple the clip in the timeline to dragging the corners.
Noise Suppressor for Voice
This new audio effect does miracles removing noises from your recording. You may find it under the audio effects tab.
Importing folders ignoring sub-folder structures
You may now import your video footage or audio recording folder while automatically ignoring the folder structures created by some devices like Sony XDCam, Panasonic P2, Canon camcorders or Zoom audio recorders.
Please report any issues you are facing at https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=kdenlive. In the report don’t forget to set 21.11.80 as your version!
First observation: Fade In / Fade Out are working back, which is a really good thing 🙂
I think it’s a good idea to generate a beta version. But I wonder why it’s not MLT 7.2.0 based, as the Daily Builds?
Thank you!
Thanks for the feedback Sylvain. Hope you manage to give it a stress test and let us know how it goes. Will check about MLT version and get back to you. 😉
I am loving the last build for Windows, you guys are doing great work. I can’t wait to check version 21.12 when it is released.
Great news! There are some bins for some folders and marks on clips that are on the timeline… This should have been done a long time ago. Very good!!!!
Is it just me, or does Noise Suppressor for Voice not show up in the audio filters tab? Linux Mint, latest version.
Are you using the AppImage?
Yes. However, when I run the appimage (kdenlive-21.12.0-beta2-x86_64.appimage) and I check the version under Help, it says: 21.11.80. Is this correct?
Same here with the AppImage on Pop!_OS 21.04.
Interesting update. Question: is there any way I could contribute with portuguese-brazilian translations? After all, according to similarweb, Brazil is the second country to access the website the most

Great version with cool features! It will be more convenient if in the “Ripple tool” the end and the beginning of adjacent clips will also be displayed, as in the “Slip tool” mode.
Great version with cool features. Thank you!
I think Kdenlive needs only a few things to be a real alternative to Davinci and other proprietary stuff:
1) Wide gamut colorspaces. Now so many people use log or HLG profiles on their cameras, please let them use Kdenlive 🙂
2) Stabilization on clips – not on single resources. Now users have to stabilize all the resource, add it to the project, extract again the same piece and replace it. This looks to be not so hard to automate, right?
3) So called “qualifier” tool in color grading. It selects a range of colors and automasks it. Generally done to keep good skin tones and color grade the rest. It can be done in Kdenlive with a lot of effects, so it doesn’t seem so hard to automate it. It’s the most common tool used in color grading.
4) slowmo interpolation – Ffmpeg does it, even quite well so… Probably it’s not very hard to add it as effect, on single clips more than on single resources.
If Kdenlive had these 4 features, I think there would be no reason to switch to proprietary software.
But thank you again, Kdenlive still grows and it’s already my standard, and most used tool, in video edit.
I fully agree with your comment!
Great work, guys and gals (I’m a sucker for Ripple Delete though, over the Ripple Trimming, but I got custom short cuts to razor cut, delete and remove gaps, so it’s cool – hey! There’s an idea: macros… 😀 )
So yes, if Ripple Delete is coming: a big thumbs up here. 👍😊
I wonder if that Noise Suppressor will remove wind on outdoor shots. 🤔😁
