What's wrong with Kdenlive?
Skill issue if you can't use kdenlive
>>109449978Retards don't know how to use it, then blame it on the "lack of features"

>>109450413>DaVinci Resolve has been used for the color grading and/or editing of feature films such as Alien: Covenant,[103] Avatar,[104] Best of Enemies,[105] Deadpool 2,[106] Jason Bourne,[107] Kingsman: The Golden Circle,[108] La La Land,[109] Love & Mercy,[110] the Pirates of the Caribbean series,[109] Prometheus,[111] Anora, Robin Hood,[112] Spectre,[113] Star Wars: The Last Jedi,[114] and X-Men: Apocalypse.[115]>At the 2019 Academy Awards, DaVinci Resolve and Blackmagic Design were used to create five of the eight films nominated for Best Picture: Green Book (which won Best Picture), Bohemian Rhapsody (which won the most awards), The Favourite (which earned the most nominations), Roma (which also earned the most nominations), and Vice.[94] Additionally, the two programs were used to create 13 of the films nominated for awards at the 2018 Academy Awards,[116] nine at the 2017 Academy Awards,[117] seven at the 2016 Academy Awards,[118] four at the 2014 Academy Awards,[119] and four at the 2010 Academy Awards (including two for Best Picture).[120]>20 films nominated for awards at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival used DaVinci Resolve,[121] followed by 35 in 2016,[122] over 45 in 2017,[123] over 55 in 2018,[124] and over 35 in 2019.[125] The programs have also been used on films at other festivals, including over 25 films at the 2018 Austin Film Festival,[126] three at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival,[127][128] 21 at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival,[129] the 2019 Tribeca Film Festival,[130] and the 2016 and 2017 South by Southwest festivals.[131][132]>DaVinci Resolve has also been used in the restoration of classic films such as Les Misérables,[133] Spartacus,[134] Black Like Me,[135] Jamaica Inn,[136] and The Perfect Woman.[137]
>>109450452>freetardBecause freedom sucks! We are proud slaves.
kdenlive works great for casual editing. reminds me of sony vegasdavinci resolve has retarded dependencies but once it's up it's the industry standardfor just trimming or encoding there's a myriad of tools, I just use handbrake
>>109450584forgot to mention shotcut, that one seemed promising for casual use also but last I tried ~1-2y ago it needed more time in the oven
>>109449893webm converter via wine is all i need
>>109450549no, but your free softwares suck
>>109450524>>109450413>color grading and/or editingmakes it sound like only did the basics with it.There's only one serious option for mid-high level (but not movie-scale) video editing, and it's after effects.Ironically, for movies the requirements on the video editor is much lower, because they will usually use some at least semi-custom path-traced special effects, and a lot of practical effects. They also have infinite compute and infinite editor man-hours.I'm not happy about it, I'd like a alternative, but it's something people rarely understand because when people think video editing they mean the trivial basics like cutting clips and color grading. Real video editing means lights, particle systems, scripting the relations between layers... At least 10 layers and 12 hours of work for a 10 second clip
>>109450584I can't believe how good kdenlive is. I swapped from windows last year and losing vegas was a concern.
>>109449893Because you haven't installed a trial of premiere on a vm using windows xp
Somehow slightly related to the thread, but have anyone tried yet the pic related?
>>109450791curiosity picked
>>109450472>>109450584>>109450746Is it worth getting into Kdenlive? I want to create cool edits, yes... I want to share them on 4chan. What about GPU accel? Is that important?
>>109449893What do you mean you have kdenlive and a crippled version of Davinci resolve isn't that good enough.
>>109450791free beta btw, no idea if it's unlimited trial though. shit opened instantly and is super smooth. gonna try the workflow and encoding
>>109450850Shotcut is better for colour grading, it's got 10 bit linear GPU accelerated pipeline, kdenlive is stuck on 10 bit CPU only, and so runs like ass for 1080p native, I got by on it using 480p preview, it has few 10 bit effects, it's basically 8 bit CPU only. But in terms of everything else, kdenlive is better and easier by far.
>>109450950Thank you, what do you use personally, anon? And what would you recommend to a total beginner? As I said, I'd like to create short edits, as my first project.
>>109450472no i am not a member of a secret society conspiring off the western world and eat children
>>109449937I love Olive a lot and still use it in its half-baked shit state. Apparently the guy secured some funding and is working on a rewrite.
>>109450791linux version is only planned for 1.0, that'll be a while prob
>>109450972Hey anon, I would recommend kdenlive for that, as you won't just yet benefit from the 10 bit linear pipeline of Shotcut. Kdenlive is a few updates away (bout half a year) from getting GPU acceleration and 10 bit support for the rest of the effects. If get bad fps in preview, lower the preview res, or use proxy files. Kdenlive uses OpenTimelineIO, so once Shotcut supports this, you could interchange between the two. I have a high quality svt AV1 render preset for kdenlive I can send.
>>109450928it's a bit barebone right now but for a beta I'm really digging where it's going. smooth workflow and performances. only grip right now is i can't seem to find a way to change interpolation type for keyframes and encoding is limited to h264/aac right now. I could see it becoming the affinity photo of video editing with it's relatively cheap one time personal license.
>>109449999
>>109450627>webm converter via wine is all i needbrother? ffmpeg and some shell scripts are all you need. >>109450850its decent, but its good that there is documentation on how use it
just use davinci resolve
I use kdenlive even on windows.
>>109449893See:>>109449924>>109449960>>109450452See:>>109450524Then there's Blender for cartoons and videos with CGI elements:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Films_made_using_BlenderAnd there's really solid video editing software for those of us who don't work in the film industry too (100% of this board), such as:ShotcutKdenliveOpenShotBasically, OP and his thread are retarded.
>>109452990you never used any of those, you're the kind of faggot who insists gimp is fine for most people
>>109450850All I do is cut, crop and overlay text and images on multiple tracks. Does what I need.
>>109453021I use Shotcut myself, but do have a colleague who uses DaVinci Resolve under Linux and MacOS. I also have been been using GIMP for 20 years to produce fliers and general promotional materials. It has never failed me. Clearly, it is you who has not used any of this software.
>>109452990>Shotcut & OpenShotBoth wouldn't let me edit my videos or play a preview of them. Broken.>KdenliveAfter finally accepting that vegas pro doesn't work with wine, i have to say that Kdenlive is semi-decent.
One thing Adobe did that we can't seem to replicate is the seamless integration between the entire suite. It wouldn't be enough to just make a Photoshop or Premier Pro alternative, we need a project spanning everything for professional creators.Last time I was on Windows a friend asked me to help him touch some stuff up for a niche magazine. So I made use of Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. It was very nice that not only the interface was similar for all three, but I could import the raw Photoshop file into InDesign and it would be updated as I make edits to the original Photoshop image.To actually attempt to compete with Adobe means competing with their entire suite. It take the same amount of effort as creating a desktop environment from scratch.One thing I think is slept on is leveraging GEGL (GIMP's engine). GIMP doesn't do it justice.
>>109452990Ah, the classic "I'm not a professional artists so I don't realize how shit these open source alternatives are" lines.
>>109452990Shotcut is horrible
>>109452074Pape?
>>109455503>Pape?its slang for wallpaper
>>109455516Yes I'm asking for it...
>>109450717>Real video editing means lights, particle systems, scripting the relations between layersLOL
>>109455525its sfw
>>109450452>what the fuck are you smoking you delusional freetardhe doesn't know...
>>109449893kdenlive works on my machine
>>109449978It's not hardware accelerated
>>109449924I haven't updated in a long time but it felt a bit like gimp: technically possible, but doing every little thing requires looking up a tutorial because it is that unintuitive, with weird limitations everywhere. Name probably comes from it requiring Davinci's Resolve to be usable
>>109449893My CachyOS app came with a preinstalled video editor app called Kdenlive, it works on my machine and I have no need for any other app.
What's the Linux equivalent of something like Windows Movie Maker for just cutting together simple videos?
>>109450828>€89 for a shitty software that will fail like all of his project and you can only update it for 2 years
>>109456620Kdenlive is as simple as it gets.
>>109449893Just use vim.
>>109454576I use it to make compilations with nightcore background music for my goon sessions and it works flawlessly.
>>109449893>Still no good video editors to this dayI'm sure someone will vibe code one with an AI in a few minutes today. It'll be fine.
>>109450018>>109450457I used Adobe Premire Pro before switching to kdenlive and i never needed documentation and never had to look up something.Kdenlive is as simple as it gets, if you know the very basics of video editing.If you don't know what a "Transformation Filter" is or does, then idk... don't blame the software for your lack of knowledge.
>>109450717>makes it sound like only did the basics with it.Then corporate closed source software is too retarded to do the basics, and they have to resort to open source software for it.How does this help your argument, dear corporate bootlicking low-life vermin?
>>109449893I use Shotcut. I wouldn't use it for a feature length film but it's perfectly fine for a YouTube video, a corporate in-house marketing video or anything else really.
>>109450452i had a job interview at a large 3d fx company and was surprised that they were full linux with a handful of windows machines/vms for adobe products. after thinking about it it makes sense. it's a natural evolution from back in the day when it used to be done in unix (think toy story etc)
>>109449960It is a great software. Good for effects (with fusion) and leading colour correction. Apparently fewer crashes than adobe.Also good just for cutting.Also much cheaper than adobe.No idea why people would dislike this.Fusion does need some optimisation and more cool stuff though. So much potential.
>>109455593Send catbox link
>>109449893isn't linux a total meme for desktop users?
>>109449999sixth post best post
>>109449893ffmpeg unironically covers all my video editing needs (speed up/slow down, conversion and cutting)for home use, you got KDEnlive and a dozen similar toolsfor literal Hollywood production level, you get DaVinci
>>109449893What do you mean? Flame, Inferno and Flint are still available. Nuke is there if you need compositing software. These are Linux native has been for decades by now.If you want professional software you need to use professional software. No amount of crying about freeware will help you with this issue.

>>109458609I don't have 4chan Premium unfortunately
>>109450928>>109451919thanks, anon. it seems decent. the way you describe makes me think of it as a sublime text but for video editing. even their license is similar. gonna wait now for the linux port.
>>109458615ah shit, something happened and its gone
>>109458671fu-fu-fu, silly anon, you got played like a fiddle>>109458615here you go
>>109451685>>109452074Danke, anons. I'll try Kdenlive, but I'm just lazy...
>>109458814>you got played like a fiddleokay
>>109456620You could check out OpenShot.https://www.openshot.org/
>>109458820Good luck, I use it from time to time but it's so irregular I never remember how to do stuff in it.Development for various programs has progressed so much in the past decade. Its pretty cool how linux is changing. Only a couple years ago MMD couldn't even load models without DX errors
>>109455545Just say you havent done it, it's fine.>>109457261babe read again. You're double-misunderstanding to the point that it's funny.Do you think I'm PAYING for adobe?

>>109449893AI can make you a good video editor if you just ask.
>>109449893i edit the video in my mind, then i trim everything using ffmpeg and blend them
>>109457333>it's a natural evolution from back in the day when it used to be done in unix (think toy story etc)no it's not, they didnt run unix machines because they thought it was better than windows but because that's what dedicated workstation used to run on back then. Today consumer hardware can run anything and the world settled with windows. but whatever helps you cope.
>>109450685So you're ashamed of being a slave? Rightly so.If it 'sucks' so hard, why is it used in so many places, to do so many things? Including sit on the backend of things you pay for to actually do the heavy lifting.>>109453021>faggot who insists gimp is fine for most peopleWhat do you need to do that gimp cannot?>>109457333I can recall dickin' about with 3D rendering on my Atari ST... We're talking 11Mhz o CPU and 512KB (that's not a typo) of RAM here. Set that rendering when I go bed, it might have finshed a frame by time I'm back from skewl, shit.I neglect the name of the package, I keep thinking "Lightwave 3D" but know it wasn't that 'cause I always wanted n couldn't affords. But the point in mention is there was a demo file, had two little spinged articulated desk lamps. And a demo animation wherin a pair knock a ball between, the little one jumps on it and balances knocks it over to the larger one that attempts to imitate and flattens it. See that in much higher resolution in movie intro's now. If them folks wasn't involved in the fabrication o that software, I wager they used it.>>109462026>they didnt run unix machines because they thought it was better than windows but because that's what dedicated workstation used to run on back thenThey used unix because unlike winhoes that could be trusted to not shit the bed every five seconds.Or are you trying to tell me at work I didn't daily interface with the IBM AS400 running Unix using the NT workstation, and microsoft had no server capabilities. >but whatever helps you cope.Yeah. That.
>>109449893blender
kdenlive is actually good enough for most editting
>>109463341can you link a tutorial for that
>>109463550NTA ... But they litter the intelliwebs...It's quite a complex beast when you really get into it, so expect multiple decent ones on each sub-facet...
>>109463616I already know how to use blender for 3d modeling
>>109463741Then specify video editing in your search?Is there a particular reason I need to tell you how to use a search engine? Or are you just hoping to be spoonfed links? Will you be wanting aeroplane noises with that?
recently discovered that ffmpeg serves my needs superbly. I've always gotten annoyed trying to use openshot, and kdenlive is overkill for the kind of very simple editing I do. Turns out what I really wanted all along was to just write a few simple scripts to assemble the right ffmpeg parameters.
>>109449978OP can't pirate it like a /<-rad 1337 haxx0r.
>>109459141I've done video editing. What you're talking about is busy work that doesn't affect the project.
>>109449893we have video editors that can fit inside one portable executable file? i personally think its fine. i can do everything i need on kdenlive..
>>109465190even better. we have entire video editors that are portable 200mbs executables. Just one executable and boom... a full video editor.
>>109465215
>>109449893>Hasn't tried Shotcut
>>109457626>No idea why people would dislike thisMy understanding is that most normies who use it try to use it from Ubuntu and it'll end up shitting itself. Alternatively, people got too used to keybinds and whatnot in Premiere or the Sony equivalent.
>>109467571You can select premier keybinds in settings afaik.
>>109461760god amongst men, a true bloat hater
>>109466586I have. Doesn't work
>>109450524It's funny how difficult it is to find a list of Hollywood films that are actually edited in Resolve. All of the lists insist on lumping grading and finishing in the list.Because that's what Resolve is. Color and finishing, with a shitty NLE tacked on.The overwhelming majority of Hollywood is Avid. Distant second is Premiere. Resolve isn't even a blip for professional editing.
