How do I do this? Is it explained in the user’s manual?

@kdenlive @kde

If youre wondering how to get KDEnlive to use yourself, its always included in most every linux distribution.

And professional sound editor recording studio software, and 3D movie or game modeling.

Vector drawing? Photo manipulation?

Its all there, massive word processor, science and lab software?

Free, ready to Install. Built with you safety, privacy and skills protected.

I'm not sure why it would be included with a Linux distro by default

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It's included in the default repository. Which means it's included in the distribution.

I interpreted it as being installed

That makes more sense

Only if you want to do video editing

Also it isn't preinstalled anywhere I know of

@possiblylinux127

And yet there it is.

And On Mint they say:

"Method #1: Installing via Software Manager

The easiest way to install Kdenlive on Mint is leveraging the Software Manager app that comes built into Linux Mint 20‘s desktop.

Another example:

RPM manager showing kdenlive in repos

That's not preinstalled

You need to install it to use it. I think you are misunderstanding something.

Fixed proxy clips workflow for videos with an alpha channel

Funny how AI is only the Devil if it's use don't things or people you don't like.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Except in this case the AI happens all on your computer, so no privacy leaks, big scale water or air polluting, no stealing from artists their work and livelihood... Just a tool that alleviates time and tedium, as it should be

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

@Randomgal

The difference is we are not polluting waterways or the air, or making people unemployed, or infringing on artists' livelihood.

This all happens locally on your own computer.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

You realize the only reason it doesn't happen in your computer is because it already happened by then, right? They trained the model already so your computer doesn't need all the energy. But the training did happen, and continues to happen, on stolen art, and you benefit from every time they update the software.

Except you actually like this use, so you do the mental gymnastics to pretend it is not the same.
