Do you know any good tutorials on how a beginner can learn and understand color grading?

Couldn't find this info anywhere on the internet when I searched for it, so here it is for anyone who needs it:

1. Navigate to /.var/app/org.kde.kdenlive/data
2. Create a folder called 'color-schemes'
3. Copy your .colors file here (can be found here)
4. Choose the theme in Kdenlive under Settings > Colour Scheme

Currently, if I add a clip which is taller than the project resolution, kdenlive will scale it down so it's all visible and leave black bars at the side. Is there an option so any extra is just trimmed off instead?

I'm sorry if this is something obvious and I haven't spotted it, I'm a complete novice 😅

Edit: I think I've found what I need. The transform effect, and then "adjust to original size".

This is all I need but please let me know if there is a way to make this the default for a project 😁

I'm new to Kdenlive, and I'm trying to use OpenTimelineIO to import a .XML from DaVinci. But I get an error message every time I try File>OpenTimelineIO Import:

Could not find "otioconvert" script although it is installed through pip3.

Please check the otio scripts are installed in a directory listed in PATH environment variable

Sometimes it prompts me to configure my OpenTimelineIO setup, but then it shows this:

Everything is configured: OpenTimelineIO 0.15.0

Defaulting to user installation because normal site-packages is not writeable

Requirement already satisfied: opentimelineio in /Users/mulcahey/Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages (0.15.0)

Requirement already satisfied: pyaaf2<1.7,>=1.4 in /Users/mulcahey/Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages (from opentimelineio) (1.6.0)

Anyone know how to fix? I'm running Windows 10.

Thank you!

The tracking effects in Kdenlive have very much matured. We'll go over the steps to make motion tracking easy. They might not be as elaborate as in #Blender but they're still very impressive and a bit easier to use.

Kdenlive 23.04.3 is out with many fixes to recent regressions and usability improvements to the audio mixer levels display and subtitle widget on smaller screens.

I made edits via Kdenlive, reducing the amount of unnecessary pauses and adding one-thirds. On a 29:48 time mark, there is a fun little chapter with AI art, IMO the most demanding part in regards to editing. Kdenlive helps with precise subtitling (I didn't finish them yet).

I am on windows 10 and just updated to Kdenlive 21.04 release but it seems to be always crashing when I launch the program. A ble window of the loading program appears and it crashes there. I am on a Lenovo ideapad 320, Intel Core i5 7th gen with Nvidia Geforce graphics.

I made this as a guide to get started in 2020/2021.
