Kdenlive 0.2.4 released

The latest stable version of Kdenlive, 0.2.4, was released on the 15th of March, 2004. Get it here! We have the pleasure to announce the 0.2.4 releases of both Kdenlive and PIAVE. This primarily a bug-fix release over the previous 0.2.3 release, although several new features have been added.

New Features in 0.2.4:

* Italian Translation by Daniele Medri
* Initial support for importing Kino project files. (Seems complete, but not fully tested)
* Preliminary support for snap markers
* Play selected button on clip monitor.

Some important features are still missing, but Kdenlive is now useable for small projects. We would like people to test what we have and tell us which features they miss the most. We want to find out what is most important to people, and last not least we want to attract developers. There are many small and not so small things where people could help. Be it GUI development, XML/network development, development of plugins, or simply reporting bugs.

Preparing for Kdenlive 0.2.4

Kdenlive CVS is now in feature freeze for 0.2.4; only show-stopper bugs and translations remain before release. This is mainly a bug fix release, although there are several new features such as the new "marker" tool, and the ability to import Kino projects into Kdenlive.

If you know of any bugs in the CVS version of Kdenlive, let me know!

14/12/2003 - New features in cvs

Just a heads-up on some of the new features that have been going into CVS recently. Initial support for snap markers has been added. When finished, this feature will let you accurately align clips to each other at any frame, not limited to their end points.

A new load/save framework has been implemented for projects. This will allow for better compatability across versions of Kdenlive, and opens up the possibility of supporting project file formats from other video editors in the future.

You can give clips descriptions; this will become more useful when subclips are implemented.

Finally, you can play the defined inpoint/outpoint section of a clip by pressing Ctrl-Space, or clicking the relevant button on the monitor.
