What? I have to "manually" create them? VLC does it way faster than KDEnlive 
... there are some differences between the two projects, but I think VLC does 
it nicely whereas KDEnlive is pretty slow... And I don't see any indicator that 
it create VIDEO proxy clips... Audio-ones ... yes. But no Video proxies.?
?

H.264 not only uses P-frames (which is what you described; basically they are 
predicted from preceding I-frames and the I-frame data corrects the error that 
is created hereby) but also B-frames which are predicted from anywhere, like 
from the last I-frame or the next P-frame. All very CPU intense, therefore the 
decoding algorithm is often implemented in hardware today (e.g. on the GPU or 
other chips like also on smartphones).

Actually not our problem since decoding is done by ffmpeg. H.264 decoding will 
probably never be fast done in software.
We have proxy clips for this however. I have edited some projects with proxies 
already, works better than anything else.
Note that you have to enable them in the project preferences, then you can 
right-click on your clips in the project tree and select ?generate proxy? or so.
