How do I do this? Is it explained in the userβs manual?
If youre wondering how to get KDEnlive to use yourself, its always included in most every linux distribution.
And professional sound editor recording studio software, and 3D movie or game modeling.
Vector drawing? Photo manipulation?
Its all there, massive word processor, science and lab software?
Free, ready to Install. Built with you safety, privacy and skills protected.
I'm not sure why it would be included with a Linux distro by default
It's included in the default repository. Which means it's included in the distribution.
I interpreted it as being installed
That makes more sense
@possiblylinux127 @kevinrns
Because it is useful
Only if you want to do video editing
Also it isn't preinstalled anywhere I know of
And yet there it is.
And On Mint they say:
"Method #1: Installing via Software Manager
The easiest way to install Kdenlive on Mint is leveraging the Software Manager app that comes built into Linux Mint 20βs desktop.
Another example:
That's not preinstalled
You need to install it to use it. I think you are misunderstanding something.
@kevinrns @kdenlive @kde This is not about my way being "correct" or a "my distro is better than yours" situation. I am talking about something proven and technical. A simple example is, did you know you can't edit in mp4 in Kdenlive in Fedora because they can't package those codecs? Each distro has its own issues and peculiarities and you can't expect to do serious video production work under any of those circumstances. So the general recommended way is to do what I said in my previous message.
@kdenlive whaaat? how does this work?? :D
Seems to be a locally run AI model that generates the mask
I love Kdenlive!
WOAHHHH that's so cool
That's cool
Idk what is happening but it looks impressive
WOAHG that's cool
Fixed proxy clips workflow for videos with an alpha channel
this is pretty cool, I wonder if they'll eventually do proxies of sequences, like I had in my feature request here
@kdenlive @kde Can anyone help me use this #SAM2 #ObjectDetection in #kdenlive I got stuck at the first hurdle!
The plugin setting says it's installed, but the Effect Stack still just shows a "Configure" button? This is on macOS... what am I missing?
Funny how AI is only the Devil if it's use don't things or people you don't like.
Except in this case the AI happens all on your computer, so no privacy leaks, big scale water or air polluting, no stealing from artists their work and livelihood... Just a tool that alleviates time and tedium, as it should be
The difference is we are not polluting waterways or the air, or making people unemployed, or infringing on artists' livelihood.
This all happens locally on your own computer.
You realize the only reason it doesn't happen in your computer is because it already happened by then, right? They trained the model already so your computer doesn't need all the energy. But the training did happen, and continues to happen, on stolen art, and you benefit from every time they update the software.
Except you actually like this use, so you do the mental gymnastics to pretend it is not the same.
