Bug ID: 499559 Summary: Proxy's are not edit friendly. Classification: Applications Product: kdenlive Version: 24.12.1 Platform: Microsoft Windows OS: Microsoft Windows Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: Project Bin & Import Assignee: j...@kdenlive.org Reporter: cheddarthe...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Proxy clips that are generated are not "an edit friendly format" STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. generate proxy's at 720p with the x264 profile OBSERVED RESULT sometimes the proxies are not an edit friendly format for my mkv 265 videos files even though the base video files are supposedly edit friendly. This causes the program to request that I re-encode them after the proxies generate. Don't know why. When this happens re-encoding the footage as recommended re-encodes the base video causing a needless loss in quality and requiring the regeneration of proxies. so in the end when I should just need to generate the proxies once, I instead need to generate them twice and re-encode the video once too. This causes large delays uses a lot of space and makes worse quality in the end. Sometimes Kdenlvie also says that my video files have a variable frame-rate and need re-encodeing but I am recording with CBR in OBS so this should not be happening. Don't know if the problem is with Kdenlive or OBS for that second part. EXPECTED RESULT Proxy's should always be edit friendly if the base footage is.
