[Kdenlive-devel] Let's make KDEnlive lives again together

[Christ-Jan Wijtmans]

What are you recording?
BTW, its not just "buggy", its simply doesnt work for me at all. And even
if i record manually with ffmpeg from command line the quality is very bad
and the frames lag(a problem with recording sound and video into a
container format), definitely it is not my computer that is the issue, it
is the code of ffmpeg.
For now kdenlive is unmerged due to kdenlive depending on kdelibs
semantic-desktop


Live long and prosper,
