kdenlive

[richardlce]

First post Hardware is Samsung N130 netbook, System is Lucid Puppy 5.28
I have downloaded and installed kdenlive, it is in themultimedia menu, but click it nothing happens. Puppy says all libraries and dependencies are OK.
The download is a pet from the Forum, just left click to install, seemed simple which I need .
Thank you for any help.

Sometimes terminal will show missing dependencies.
Go to Menu / Utility / Urxvt terminal emulator.
Type in kdenlive and hit Enter.

Is that the .pet from here?

Because that's only for Slacko, not for Lucid.

BUT if it is that .pet, could you please upload it? Because the link in the thread is no longer working...

That link for the .pet is working OK for me.

I don't know how to translate that one.
(If it tells you a certain dependency is missing, that's much easier.)

cut and paste wont work

You could also try shading the text, followed by right-clicking.
Or, shading followed by clicking the scroll wheel where you want the text to go.
(which won't work with Windows)

Hi Dewbie, I tried every sort of click and it won't copy.
The link you suggested is the one I got it from in the first place so now we are going round in circles.
I shall do what most newbies do when Linux won't work, give up, and do something else. Life is too short...........

The link you suggested is the one I got it from in the first place so now we are going round in circles.

That's a link to a Google page, which contains links to several versions of kdenlive.
Or did you even bother to look?

Try replacing Qt with Qt4-4.8.0.

This fellow had the same problem as you and by replacing Qt with Qt4-4.8.0 it was fixed.

Hi Battleshooter,
I realised that VLC had Qt in it, so made a new Puppy and loaded Kdenlive on that, but now it vanishes when I load a file, when restarted the file has been loaded.
Looking at other Linux forums, this is an issue with running from USB flash sticks.
So could you please describe a Linus setup I can make where Kdenlive will be stable, as it seems to be the best vidio editor for my needs.
Thank you for your help,
Richard

The setup I normally use Kdenlive in is Lupu 528 in a frugal install.
I create the save file, and then reboot and then install the Kdenlive pet. Nothing else I use has Qt with it so there are no clashes or Qt related errors for me.

Hi Battleshooter,
Thanks for that advice, I will do a "frugal install", I have not done one before, but it seems the only way forward.
Thanks again,
Richard
