Thanks for reaching out and suggesting this program. Love the tutorial easy to follow and goes over the real basics. This video has constantly been open for reference while I learn the program and edit my projects
This has been super helpful for me! There's an editing goof in it though. Right at 10:35, when you right click and go to markers, the video jumps ahead, skipping the whole bit on adding markers entirely.
Hey man, thanks a lot for this. Never editted a video before and just wanted to do some simple things. Using KDENLIVE since i use KDE Plasma. This really helped me a lot, I appreciate it.
Excellent video. I didn't realise CTRL drag changed speed. By the way, it's called the "playhead", not masthead (which is the banner at the top of a newspaper's first page!).
Do the clips show in the project bin? Are you able to drag them to the timeline? If so, then the “jobs” already processed. I think the “jobs” indication is just letting you know the clips are being processed for editing. I’ve added clips before all jobs were done and ended up without the audio track to edit. It was there, just not editable. Since then I’ve waited for all jobs to finish before starting editing.
I recorded this using OBS and a camera. OBS is a free download (obsproject.com). I added a filter for "chromakey" which allows you to use a green screen. I have a video on how to use OBS here ua-cam.com/video/y-RGBWL7aRE/v-deo.html
There are at least two ways you can do this. One way is to select "composite and transform" under the "compositions" tab. You drag the composite and transform between the two videos that you want picture in picture. You drag them between the two videos like you would "dissolve" or "wipe" or any other composition. It's different than an "effect," because effects pertain to a specific video clip, whereas the composition pertains to the interaction between two clips, that's why you drag it between the two clips. Once you have the composite and transform dragged between your two video clips, you can resize the video that's on top by clicking and dragging on the red ticks in the corners. You can move the video around by selecting the center target. The second way to do it is by applying the "position and zoom" effect to the video you want to have smaller. So long as that clip is on top of the "main" video, you can apply the position and zoom effect and click the corners of the clip to drag and resize. You can move the video around by clicking the center target and dragging to where you want it. Either way works well.
I done alll this uploaded my video to UA-cam and for some reason my video is in a small box the video doesn’t even fit in the screen. Is there anyway I can resolve this without deleting my video of UA-cam
You mentioned the biggest single reason kdelive is not a professional product -- it crashes far too often! Eventually you learn "it crashes if I do this, so I don't do that". But before you try to do any "real" projects with kdenlive, Google "kdelive crashes when rendering", this is a fatal flaw, and when it happens you don't find out until you think you have finished editing and you end up with a lot of work for nothing! This has hit me (on Linux. but seems more common with Windows) with 21.12.0 and updating to 21.12.3 didn't fix it. Sometimes you can do arithmetic on the error log frame numbers and "edit out" the offending sections, but this is a tedious and desperate kludge. The more you mix video sources the more likely you are to encounter it. As an alternative try Shotcut, not as slick, and lacks many of the kdenlive advanced features, but it has been very reliable for me having produced over 20 hours of output video with it and not a single crash. I'm struggling with kdenlive now because I need to do something kdenlive seems to make easy that I could not figure out how to do at all with Shotcut. Since both are "free" no reason not to have both in your toolbox, neither is what I'd call "intutive" but both kdenlive and shotcut have nice tutorials (like this one) available.
First rate tutorial. I've learned a great deal, I'll need to watch it a few time I think. Many thanks for taking the time to do this.

Wow.....really cool intro...I think I can now attempt to try. Most grateful. Happy new year 2024🎉
Great video man, this program is simple but powerful.

No problem! I’m glad you found it!

New to Kdenlive
Thank you so much for the tutorial!
Thank you from the Philippines.
great tutorial, had no idea this program could do so much
Good job, learned a few new things. Thanks
Gracias. Clear and to the point.
Thank you very much for an excellent video. It helped a lot.
Where's the timeline/sequence? In the Project panel? Not seeing my sequence file anywhere.
Great tutorial, thanks!
just wat i needed, really helpful thanks a ton
Great!. very helpful and clear.
What do you do if the jobs don't pop up when you import your clips into the project bin? Do you start the jobs manually?

Thanks for the good content. I have a question, please, how do you show yourself with this background

Very helpful, thank you!
best video thanks for heip me
great video...thanks for making it. is there a way you can tell me how to do the Picture in Picture?

Hmmm, maybe provide a link to your video. The only thing I can think of is you rendered it to a real small format.
18:35 Ricer in the background lol
Tunle

Hi
