Hello,
I am enjoying Kdenlive.
I just wanted to add a request for the Multicam Feature.
I do a lot and I mean a lot of Multicam setups and edits.
I work with many different cameras in one sequence.
Premiere pro has a good experience. (I have not tried Davinci Resolve so that might be better)
My request is to add a better Multicame workflow and features to support that.
Like for example, on Premiere Pro, you can put all your footage into one Sequence and then next that sequence into another one and then start switching to camera angle by switching which track its pulling from.
On Premiere Pro, you can just use the number pad by hand, which works great.
Can you add something similar to Kdenlive?
This is a big feature for me and I do a lot of editing on TV Shows and other big projects every day.
Thank you
In Kdenlive you have to start in the “multicam source sequence”. Here you can switch with the numpad key from camera to camera.
Once done you can select all clips and create a new nested sequence to have it lean. But this new sequence is “one block” of video and you don’t see the cuts anymore. So ripple in the nested sequence is not possible anymore for finetuning.
Yes, I am glad that this has been worked on.
I do think that is a problem, though. To not be able to go back and make changes and edits to the multicam sequence really hinders the power of multicam.
For now, until there is further improvement, I will to be able to use this.
I do believe that this will be possible eventually.
I think you may have misunderstood what Eugen said. You can always modify the multicam sequence. You just need to do it in that sequence. Any changes there will automatically be reflected anywhere it is nested if you use that additional optional step.
