FAQ

What components does kdenlive use?

In effect Kdenlive is front end to melt - also known as MLT. The MLT video framework relies on the FFMPEG project. Kdenlive writes sh.mlt XML files that code the edit points and transitions and it then calls /usr/bin/kdenlive_render and /usr/bin/melt to render the video.
