Installation

Installation der Binärpakete

Multimedia Pakete sind in vielen alternativen Repositorien verfügbar, oft weil es patentrechtliche Einschränkungen zur Verbreitung verfügbarer Codecs in einigen Ländern gibt (hauptsächlich Vereinigte Staaten im Moment).

Everything would be perfect in a wonderful world if package builders would contribute to official distributions, and multimedia editors chose only free codecs to promote their use worldwide ... So try to stick to distributions deliveries?

Most linux distributions provide recent binary packages of Kdenlive that can be installed from your Package Manager. However, in some cases you can find more recent versions in private repositories.

This page at the Kdenlive home has instructions on how to source these more recent versions depending on what flavour of Linux you run. Instructions for Debian, Fedora Gentoo, OpenSUSE, Slackware and Ubuntu are available.

The current stable release is version 0.9.10 released 25th September 2014.
You need to have recent versions of frei0r, kdenlive , mlt and libvidstab e.g.
frei0r = 1.4.0+git20140826.72e51041
kdenlive = 0.9.10
mlt = 0.9.3+git20141005.22abed67
libvidstab=2:0.98b

Debian

Das Debian Projekt enthält Kdenlive Pakete seit der Squeeze (6.0) Version. Wenn man aber von aktuellen Updates und Fehlerbeseitigungen profitieren will, sollte man überlegen, zu einer Testing-Version oder sogar zu Sid zu wechseln.

Sobald in Ihrer Paketverwaltung die passenden Quellen enthält, wird ein apt-get install kdenlive ausreichen.

Sunab's PPA (see below) is not recommended for Debian because Debian uses a different lib layout for multiarch (reference: this post from vpinion)

Ubuntu und Abkömmlinge

Ubuntu bietet ebenfalls Kdenlive seit der "Gutsy" (7.10) Version. Wenn man aber von aktuellen Updates und Fehlerbeseitigungen profitieren will, sollte man überlegen, zu einer aktuellen Version zu wechseln.

Sunab bietet eine stabile Version von Kdenlive unter dem diesem PPA.

Sobald in Ihrer Paketverwaltung die passenden Quellen enthält, wird ein apt-get install kdenlive ausreichen.

Note that Sunab's PPA is built against the avconv multimedia libraries that ubuntu/lubuntu/kbuntu etc ship with. It is not built against the "alternative" ffmpeg multimedia libraries that other distros might have. So using this PPA for non-avconv-utilizing distributions might be problematic. (Thanks avconv/ffmpeg schism !!!!).

Fedora, RedHat and derivatives

RPM packages are not yet maintained in official branch, so you must go through an unofficial repository such as RPM Fusion or packman. Follow the site's recommendations to make them available and end with yum install kdenlive

Gentoo, Arch, BSD ports

Building scripts are ready for up-to-date systems, so run respectively emerge kdenlive or pacman -S kdenlive or pkg_add kdenlive, etc.

Windows

There is no native Windows version of Kdenlive yet. However, you can use some virtualized Linux distribution to run Kdenlive on Windows. Some advice can be found on this page.

There is also the kdenlive on win project on source forge which "consists of an Ubuntu VirtualBox image that is preconfigured to run Kdenlive". The project was last updated 2012-08-09.

MacOS

Kdenlive and MLT can compile and run under Mac OS X. Packages are available from the MacPorts project.

MacPorts is a source-based system - there is not a binary app bundle for Kdenlive. Therefore, Kdenlive and all of its numerous dependencies including multimedia libraries, KDE, and Qt must be compiled. This can take a long time and much disk space! Furthermore, it is not unusual for something not to build correctly; it is definitely not something for the novice, impatient, or "faint of heart."

For more details see this.

You may have some success getting support for the MacPort of Kdenlive on the Mac Ports forum on MacOS Forge.

Installing from source

If you want to test latest committed code or your personal patches, you will have to build Kdenlive (and probably MLT) on your own.

You can use your distribution's package building procedure to use its software management system to install/upgrade/remove the binaries and data, and eventually share your builds (and even contribute to package maintenance - refer to the respective distribution manual).

If you prefer you can build & install Kdenlive to a local area (preferably not /usr, but rather /usr/local or $HOME/my_local_builds/kdenlive-last-release or similar). It is then recommended to use the build script (Follow the instructions under "show kdenlive". These instructions will build Kdenlive and its dependancies [e.g. melt, ffmpeg] in a "sandbox").

Installing from Sunab's PPA

Olivier Banus (AKA Sunab) provides a personal package archive (PPA) of the latest development trees of Frei0r-plugins, MLT and Kdenlive. For details on how to install Kdenlive using this bleeding edge source see launchpad.net - kdenlive-git (unstable).Testing only!

Note: Sunab also maintains a PPA of the offical current release of Kdenlive (as noted above) as well as the current release minus one at ppa:sunab/kdenlive-release-old.

If you need to back out a release to the previous release then:

• delete all packages (kdenlive, mlt, ...) from the kdenlive-release ppa (manually or with ppa-purge)
• disable ppa:sunab/kdenlive-release in the package manager/software sources
• enable the ppa:sunab/kdenlive-release-old in the package manager/software sources
• install Kdenlive from ppa:sunab/kdenlive-release-old

Installing from daily builds

Dan Dennedy provides automatic daily builds that contain the latest git versions of Kdenlive, MLT, Frei0r, FFmpeg and some other important libraries. You can test this packages without changing your system. Just download the package and extract it to a folder of your choice. Inside that folder is a "start-kdenlive" executable that will start for you the latest Kdenlive.

Execute this by typing ./start-kdenlive in a terminal.

Daily builds are currently provided for Ubuntu (should be compatible with OpenSuse 12 and Debian 7) and Fedora.

See the daily builds rss feed which provides links to the builds for the above mentioned distributions.

Be sure to choose the correct download for your system.

kdenlive-fedora17-x86_64-YYYYMMDD.tar.bz2 is for 64bit fedora
kdenlive-ubuntu12.04-x86_64-YYYYMMDD.tar.bz2 is for 64bit ubuntu - (release 12.04 or higher) or other debian based distros
kdenlive-ubuntu12.04-x86-YYYYMMDD.tar.bz2 (no 64 in the name ) is for 32bit ubuntu - (release 12.04 or higher) or other debian based distros

Daily builds are often an easy solution if you are having troubles with your instal and can be preferable to builing your own because you don't need to install a build environment (which can be problematic on old distro).

Daily builds are likely to work even if your distro doesn't match the reference ones, as these references are older (with ascendant compatibility libs) and the important libs are embedded - it normally works without problem.

The potential downside is that the daily builds are built from the unstable development stream and may contain bugs. On the plus side your daily build version and your main version of Kdenlive can live simultaneously on your machine.
