Project File Details
Kdenlive projects consist in a singe .kdenlive file (in XML format), gathering :
- target video and audio properties
- references to all the source materials (and to their lighter proxies work copies)
- clips arrangement on the timeline, with effects applied, and everything to get the final result
Project files are associated with a working directory, in which Kdenlive will generate proxies and thumbs, so that an overview of your media always shows up quickly (if you move your project file, you should declare the directory change in the project properties).
