The solution includes most features expected in professional video editing packages, such as: multi-track editing, support for a wide range of formats and codecs (mp3, mpeg2, mpeg4, DnxHD, Theora and others) and platforms (eg, Vimeo, Youtube), an important set of effects and transitions, support for screen captures, custom rendering profiles and subtitle support.
It can be installed on Linux Caixa Mágica simply by selecting the package “task-video-editing” on the Synaptic package manager. All the dependencies are handled automatically.
Kdenlive's main windowA workflow manual is available in English and Portuguese.
A simple demo video, which is a remake of the famous and fabulous Transpotting intro, was also released and can be found below.

We would like to highlight the high quality work delivered by projects like xine, kaffeine, mplayer, vlc, ffmpeg, mlt and kdenlive which are the building blocks of this easy to use certified solution.

Id love to see a video editor come out with two GUIs, one the full version with all the whistles and one version for newbies that would only have the most used functions.
You know how when you go to preferences in VLC you have a Simple Settings and an All Settings option?
That All settings is pretty scary to most people and let's face it, 99,9% of people will never use it.
The simple settings has most of what you generally use.
Id love to have that in a video editor so newbie/kids/people who rarely use can take a few videos from the digital cameras, add a soundtrack and some text in a few easy steps. Then if they need to do more (or get better and want to explore) they have the option to use the same software and expand to the full version with more options.
I actually think that many software should be done that way but especially video. I still remember sitting in front of Adobe Premiere 6.5 and thinking "What Now?" when Windows Makers could cover most of what I wanted to do.
GUI intimidation is very high in editing software and I think an easy/advanced interface would go a long way.

We don't need an editor with two GUIs.
Several editors are based on MTL (www.mltframework.org) and they can choose to expose more or less functions.
Maybe you feel the need of a home video editor like Windows Movie Maker. That could be done on top of MTL.
Anyway, that's not the purpose of Kdenlive, which is a technical tool for full video editing.
Providing tarballs would be greatly appreciated.
Excellent! Well done and thanks with all my heart for this. I've been wishing and praying for video editing with Linux for a while now... thanks so much!
BTW - love the linspotting! :D
Nicely written manual. I am doing some video production on Linux too and it can be frustrating sometimes. This kind of manuals will help future users. :)
I'd recommend that you extend the editing chapter and perhaps add few more things about codecs, people generally don't know much about those things.
Good work!
