Thank you, Victoriano! This is an exceptional tutorial. I am pretty new to Kdenlive, and like it a lot. I've Liked and Subscribed, and plan on watching other Kdenlive tutorials you have.

There are 2 other ways to change the speed on a clip. If you hold down the ctrl key and grab the end of a clip and drag it, you can easily speed it up or down. However it is not as precise as the method displayed in the video. Another effect that can be applied is Time Remapping, aka speed ramping in other video editors. You will need to have View/Time Remapping enabled. Finally, if the clip has audio, the music part will be speeded up or slowed down as Victoriano explained. You can apply the Rubberband Octave Shift effect to the audio track to compensate for the tonal shift. Most videographers take the simple approach and just play the audio at normal speed, or mute it altogether. To do this you will need to ungroup the audio from the video channel before you do the speed change.
Switching out the kernel is very risk as I have warned in the description. Unfortunately, I will not be able to assist you with this issue. My advice is to restore from your most recent working backup.
When I render, the render crashes, giving error log: "No VST2 plugins were found! Check your VST_PATH environment variable. [mp3float @ 0000020222986b40] Could not update timestamps for skipped samples. [mp4 @ 000002021237edc0] Timestamps are unset in a packet for stream 1. This is deprecated and will stop working in the future. Fix your code to set the timestamps properly [mp4 @ 000002021237edc0] Encoder did not produce proper pts, making some up." Can someone help me?
What this video misses is that Kdenlive is a "fussy" program that will often say the mp4 you loaded is not suitable for editing, so then it offers to convert it to an "edit-friendly" format, which is some weird "lossy" format. When you do this, and drag to the timeline, the audio does not separate out from the video. The timeline just contains a single mp4 track, NOT what this (and all the other Kdenlive) video show. None of these RU-vid videos address this situation, so you're basically just stuck. The solution is that you must select the option that says "huge" file, and then that will produce the separated-out audio. Annoying.
I’ve had this happen before but very rarely. It has something to do with the video/audio codecs you use to record on your camera. I’m not a codec expert so I can’t really provide much more insight. I record in the standard h264 codec on my osmo pocket and Kdenlive will accept this with no issues. When I use HEVC or H265 from my iPhone, I notice Kdenlive will struggle with playback. But this is generally true with other video editors as well. I hope this gives you an idea where to do some research and I hope you can find a solution.
Victoriano, I did everything you described (in your video) but Kdenlive moves the video track to the middle of the timeline (some random point in the middle of the ‘referenced audio’ track). There is no sync at all. This keeps happening. What am I doing wrong please? I should add that the video clip is an mp4 whereas the main referenced audio track is an mp3. Also the video track is just a short clip of the beginning vocals (me lip-syncing). I’m trying to align this short video clip to the beginning of the main referenced audio track that includes a full band (both vocals and other instruments). It has synced fine when I align the tracks manually but this takes a long time. Thank you.
@@youtubecommentor4480 Hi, I did this tutorial with an older version of Kdenlive. Generally it worked. However, lately when I tried the sync, it doesn’t always work unfortunately. So it might just be a regression in the newer Kdenlive version. I know this probably isn’t the answer you wanted but I often find certain things not working as they should in different versions of Kdenlive.
Hi Victoriano - great video - thanks very much! Do you or does anybody know why I get an error message saying "The file or folder does not exist" when I start kdenlive (24.05.2) on Mac (Monterey 12.7.6). It works fine after the error message is acknowledged. It's not a deal-breaker but it is annoying ....
I am not sure what might be causing this error. Kdenlive might be looking for a folder that doesn't exist. This might be because of folder links not properly configured for the Mac version. Honestly, I also experienced bugs when using the most current version 24.05.2. So I have actually reverted back to the older version 23.08.5 which seems to have most of the bug-free experience for me. Unfortunately, the older version doesn't seem to have a Silicon Mac option, if you are on ARM instead of Intel.
@@victorianodejesus Thanks Victoriano - that has put my mind at rest. It's an odd bug because it doesn't happen on my laptop which is using Big Sur 11.7.10 - it only happens oon my desktop Mac running Monterey 12.7.6. I think I'll do what you have done and go back a version. Thanks again for your help. An afterthought - I was wondering, does kdenlive save a log when it loads? The missing file/folder might be mentioned in there.
the text adding option is by far the most stupid thing i saw ... the software is free and can do professional stuff - would i recommend using it? now fckng way.
Just found your videos from the Kdenlive Manual pdf. I have watched so many videos which have just confused me and puzzled me and that have never explained anything clearly but yours was SO clear and helpful. You are a born teacher! At last I have been able to understand keyframes! I look forward to seeing the rest of your videos! Thanks so much.
Yes that's true. When you do it manually, you will be using less keyframes (because there's no way you would want to place a keyframe every 5 seconds) and the action will appear smoother.
Once the volume (keyframable) effect is added to the audio track, can you simply add keyframes and adjust the volume directly on the audio track, not the effects box?
congratulations. your videos are informative, clear, set to a good pace (i.e., not too fast, like many IT people) and are relatively free of one of my pet peeves -- lots of uh's and um's. so many content creators don't realize how often they use those fillers. thank you for making these.
most helpful. thank you. I just loaded kvenlive this afternoon and this is the first tutorial I came upon. I'm eager to give it a try on my first project.
One funny thing about this video, to me, is that the moment I first used Kdenlive I immediately started making intense use of the clip monitor and its features to save clips and notes. And here I find a video that puts these in the front as tips! :D It really is a life saver for stream clip compilations.
