If you count mp4 containers with H.264 as fancy, then... :) What I still consider bad behavior is that ffmpeg crashes with a pointer violation. I also have no clue why I was lacking the extra56 package, because I usually install extra codecs right away. Ursprüngliche Nachricht

Alberto, as is often the case, there are multiple ways to achieve the same outcome. But there are multiple ways, depending on your workflow and project. And there isn't a "one size fits it all" or the "one true way", as in politics. First, Kdenlive is slightly unique in that it can achieve positi

For my workflow, I'm glad that the render pipeline is as is: because I need to resize the timeline height while working on my project this would otherwise invalidate the whole prerendering data. The downscaling is cheap, while the prerendering is expensive. I fail to see how changing the pipelin

As for separate phab tasks I recommend to hear the devs on this. I see pros and cons for both a summary task as well as individual tasks. Personally, from previous work I got the impression that summary tasks auickly tend to get "everything plus a kitchen sink", making it at least difficult to t

Yes, and no. As Evert pointed out, there's currently a bug in the timeline handling that sometimes causes issues (but not always as far as I understand, but I may be wrong here). The safest approach is as Evert suggested to render at 50fps and then use ffmpeg for post-processing to drop every se
