This is an attempt to coordinate the work that has to be done towards Kdenlive 1.0. If you want to work on some parts of Kdenlive, leave a note here so that we know who is doing what. Design ideas can also be explained here.

* Alternative timeline view specialised on editing transitions (snapshot, just for demonstration; click for full size and see the SVG in the refactoring branch for infinite size):
−
* Manage clip zones - JBM

Todo:
 
−
* Edit clip properties
 
−
* Add MLT Playlist, Slideshow and Title clip types
 
−
* Clip jobs
 
−
* Clip timeline and effects (will allow to open a project clip in a separate timeline and add effects to it)

Done:

= Refactoring =
−
* Add clip to timeline
 
−
* All clip operations (move, cut, ...) - framework is partially there

* Track operations

== Rendering ==

* Break big classes into smaller ones (targetting the refactored architecture: Cutsomtrackview, Renderer...)
−
Todo:

The proposed architecture can be found in the [http://quickgit.kde.org/?p=kdenlive.git&a=tree&hb=35ec064a62cc3490a19b68928df580b1c99f8326 refactoring branch] in ''refactoring-doc/'' – find some snapshots here (not updated, just to get an impression):
−
Todo:
 
−
* Add config dialog to select source
 
−
* Add Multi consumer to save recording to file
 
−
* Port StopMotion widget, using the new Scene Mode so that we can use all QGraphicsView features.
 
  
−
== Titler ==

* What to do with it? Full rewrite? Would [https://github.com/rectalogic/webvfx WebVfx] be an option?

== Scopes ==

= Done! =
 +
 
 +
* Port Kdenlive to KF5 (KDE Framework 5)
 +
* Write an OpenGL display. When this is done, Movit can be integrated.
 +
* Refactor ProjectManagement/Bin
 +
* Project clips effects, so e.g. colour grading is done only once on the clip in the project bin and not every time in the timeline
 +
* Render using MLT presets
 +
* Duplicate Title clips

Documentation

  • Workflow
    • What are the git branches used for
  • Code documentation
    • give big-picture views (explain to someone new to the code what it does, why it is required, and who it interacts with)

Refactoring

  • Break big classes into smaller ones (targetting the refactored architecture: Cutsomtrackview, Renderer...)
  • Replace XML manipulations with MLT API calls
  • Port UI to QML

The proposed architecture can be found in the refactoring branch in refactoring-doc/ – find some snapshots here (not updated, just to get an impression):
