Hi, I'm new to kdenlive. I've browsed the forum on sf but didn't find this problem listed anywhere. I have no context menu anywhere (Which I should have according to the doc). So I can only add a clip through drag&drop - and that's not very handy (Well, I've never liked d&d). I'm also not able to add a clip to the timeline. I can d&d it on there, but it won't stick. It configured, compiled and installed OK. I've got piave installed. I tried both the standard and the cvs version, but to no avail. Is there an option I should've used? I'm running on Debian kernel 2.6 Thanks, Steven van de Beek. |

If you installed kdenlive the first time, you probably need to add /usr/local/kde to your KDEDIRS environment variable. That is not kdenlive specific, but you need this for all KDE programs that you compile yourself. If you had installed an older version of kdenlive before, then maybe you have an old ./.kde/share/config/kdenliverc file lIying around. Try to delete it and restart.

I can change the shortcuts to add a clip - and I noticed that some clips DO show up in the timeline whereas others don't. I'll try to find out why that is (I tried 4 MPEG files and 1 AVI file and ONE of the MPGs worked. The others didn't). All clips I tried so far can be displayed without a problem using xine - haven't used another prog to check them. Thanks, Steven. |

That is amazing, since piave only understands DV. ;-)) (Either raw DV or wrapped in AVI. It also support ogg-vorbis, but that doesn't work in kdenlive, I guess.) > All clips I tried so far can be displayed without a problem using xine - > haven't used another prog to check them.

Pity. Any idea if there's ever going to be an upgrade to other formats? Regards, Steven. |

But most people don't realize this because this the seperation of gui and render engine is pushed to the extreme of two different projects. Usually this separation is not so clear. > Pity. > Any idea if there's ever going to be an upgrade to other formats? As soon as somebody implements them ;-) I am willing to help with mpeg. This should be not to difficult for a I-Frames only TS stream like it is produced by consumer AVCs by e.g. Sony. The right thing would be to implement generic support for libav, but I think this is not straight forward. Cheers, Rolf |

If not, then you either have not installed Kdenlive, or have installed it to an incorrect path. To install a KDE app, run ./configure --prefix=`kde-config --prefix` (watch out for those back-quote thingies around kde-config --prefix!) then make, make install. Afterwards, you might needs to remove the kdenliverc file out of your .kde/shader/config directory as well. Let me know if that helps.

It still sounds like an install path issue. The toolbar and "edit" menu's are standard, and won't be affected by the install path of kdenlive. try the following as root : updatedb (to make sure your locate database is up to date) locate konquerorrc On my machine, one of the returned lines is : /usr/share/config/konquerorrc Now, everything from /share onwards is a kde-specific path, so kdenlive stuff should end up in /usr somewhere. (in my case) Now try this : locate spacer.png I get this : /usr/share/apps/kdenlive/icons/hicolor/32x32/actions/spacer.png As you see, in my install, the bit before /share is the same as for konqueror. (/usr in both cases) Can you do the same test on your system (the same two locate lines) and let me know the results? Cheers, Jason -- Jason Wood Homepage : www.uchian.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk |

Hi Jason, Here they are the full results: locate konquerorrc /usr/share/debian-edu/common/share/config/konquerorrc locate spacer.png /usr/share/apps/kdenlive/icons/hicolor/32x32/actions/spacer.png /usr/src/kde/quanta-3.2.0/kommander/editor/pics/small/spacer.png /usr/src/kdenlive-0.2.4/icons/hicolor/32x32/actions/spacer.png /usr/src/kdenlive-cvs/kdenlive/icons/hicolor/32x32/actions/spacer.png PS: Thanks a lot for your time and effort.

Try this line on configure : =2E/configure --prefix=3D/usr/share/debian-edu/common (you might want to do a make uninstall first to clean up the old kdenlive=20 install) then make/make install and see if that works.
