Well, I still haven't managed to do much myself, but Rolf and Giles have been busy - Giles has been working on adding some polish to the interface - tooltips, information in the about box, etc. and has also started looking to i80n'ise Piave. Read More

Well, no I hope this doesn't become a regular thing, but I realise that I haven't udated the site for quite some time. Things are still ticking along at a sedate pace, an hour's coding here or there from myself, Rolf as been similarly lacking in time, tied up by his thesis, and the testers, well they're waiting for us to do some more stuff for them to test!

Things have been a bit slow on the development front recently, since I have started a new job, and Rolf has been attending a conference in California. This hasn't stopped Giles though, who has been busily translating Kdenlive into French. Check out the screenshots page! Read More

Recently, the CVS versions of kdenlive and piave have been pretty much useless due to major incompatabilities and developments. These have now been fixed somewhat, so you can now check out the development version to see how much progress is being made. Read More

We are now well into the development of the next release of Kdenlive/Piave. Currently, we are working on the capabilities section of the interface (yeah, very internal and if your not a developer, quite boring!) Well, in simple terms, Piave (or any other renderer) will tell Kdenlive what it can do, what file formats it supports, what effects it can perform, etc. etc. etc, and Kdenlive will then make all this info available to the user.

It's been a very pleasant two days after the release, watching the traffic flow through the website and getting a warm fuzzy feeling from the odd praising comment. Keep them coming! We are very interested in hearing any ideas or problems that you wish to share with us. Read More

We are very happy to announce the first beta release of Kdenlive and PIAVE. Together, Kdenlive and PIAVE form a video editing system, capable of editing, previewing and exporting DV video files. Read More

I have added the use of KDockWidgets to Kdenlive. Essentially, this means that you can lay out the application however you want to - just drag the various windows around with the use of the Dock bar on the top of each widget, and you can put widgets into tab views, gimp-style layouts, or just shove the timeline at the top of the window if you so desire. Check out the screenshots to get a better idea of what I mean! Read More

Hope everyone out there had a happy new year! I think it is nice to start the year as you mean to go on, and so I have now uploaded the first alpha release of Kdenlive. Head over to the download page for more info, and contact me if you run into any difficulties. Read More

Kdenlive has now gained multiple undo/redo functionality, and load/save support! If that's not enough for you, Piave now uses YUV overlays for all video output, and is threaded for lower latency. In fact, apart from some minor bugs that need to be sorted out, we should have a first source release out soon. Read More
