File Structure
As already pointed out in the Quickstart, we suggest using a different project folder for each project. Kdenlive will generate the following folders for caching in the project folder:
ladspa/
for the LADSPA xml effect files, not used anymore since Kdenlive 0.8.2proxy/
for the proxy clips that have been generated
thumbs/
for thumbnails to all used clipstitles/
default location for the titles saved outside the project file.backup/
for your project's automatic backup files
These directories can be deleted if not required anymore (for example for saving space on the harddrive). Kdenlive will create them again when you load the project the next time.
Source clips can be located anywhere. Still, here are 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 files together, and searching for the files takes less time.
- Material that is used by multiple projects are convenient when kept together. I’ve got a video collection the same way that I have a photo collection.
