File Structure
As already pointed out in the Quickstart, we suggest to use a different project folder for each project. Kdenlive will generate the following folders for caching in the project folder:
ladspa/
proxy/
for the proxy clips that have been generatedthumbs/
for thumbnails to all used clipstitles/
Source clips can be located anywhere. Still, some thoughts about their location:
- Material (images, clips, audio) that is used for one project only can be put into a subdirectory of the project folder as well. This keeps all important file together, and searching for the files takes less time.
- Material that is used by multiple projects. I’ve got a video collection the same way that I have a photo collection.
