The team is thrilled to introduce the much-anticipated release of Kdenlive 24.02, featuring a substantial upgrade to our frameworks with the adoption of Qt6 and KDE Frameworks 6. This significant under-the-hood transformation establishes a robust foundation, shaping the trajectory of Kdenlive for the next decade. The benefits of this upgrade are particularly noteworthy for Linux users, as improved Wayland support enhances the overall experience. Additionally, users on Linux, Windows, and MacOS will experience a substantial performance boost since Kdenlive now runs natively on Vulkan, Metal, and Directx respectively, replacing the previous abstraction layer reliance on OpenGL and Angle, resulting in a more efficient and responsive application. This upgrade brings significant changes to packaging, featuring the introduction of a dedicated package for Apple Silicon, the discontinuation of PPA support and an enhanced method for installing the Whisper and Vosk speech-to-text engines.

Wait there finally is proper Vulkan and DX support? 10/10 would use
The initial implementation of the long awaited easing interpolation modes for keyframes has landed. Expected soon are easing types (ease in, ease out and ease in and out) and a graph editor.
YES! Performance boosts and stability are great and all, but Kdenlive sorely needed proper easing types, the “smooth” easing they had before made it impossible to have decent effects and transitions. Even translating text just looked linear and flat. Maybe I will use open source video editors after all!
Can a frequent Kdenlive user comment on the speed performance of this update? The marketing makes it sound incredible, plus the Qt6 update.
The blog post is cool, but why on earth does a video editor have no video introducing a new version of itself?
