Hello everyone, I use very often Kdenlive, and I think it's a complete solution for video editing. Anyway there's something I really miss: a chroma key effect. Also a simple one, just for basic compositions. Actually I use this little hack: first of all I take the video and export it into a PNG sequence. Then I use imagemagick to make a color (00FF00 means pure green) transparent with this shell script:
mkdir ready ls *.png > tmp.txt exec < ./tmp.txt while read line do convert -fuzz 5% -transparent "#00FF00" "$line" "ready/$line" done then I create a Kdenlive project with a "presentation clip" using the images of the folder "ready", and I mix it with a background video using the transition "composite". It works quite good, especially because you can set the possible color variation with "-fuzz" option (5% is often good). The only problem is that it's not very easy: a graphical interface integrated with Kdenlive would be better. So I hope you can someway integrate this (or a similar) procedure to get Kdenlive able to apply Chroma Key effect. If I can help, just tell me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SOLARIS 10 is the OS for Data Centers - provides features such as DTrace, Predictive Self Healing and Award Winning ZFS.
