The second maintenance release of the 24.02 series is out with performance optimizations when moving clips in the timeline and across multiple project bins, packaging improvements to macOS and Windows versions and fixes to copy/paste of effects, rotoscoping, Nvidia encoding among others.
So today marks the 30th birthday of the venerable RiscPC by Acorn Computers! This modular machine is what started my special interest of computers, and what I have so many fond memories of using for a better part of the decade - I love the RiscPC so much!
I DID have a video in the works that I was going to release to mark this momentous occasion... However that (what I deem a) catastrophic failure of my RPC's video output a few weeks ago has made me miss this deadline, as I haven't been able to source a replacement motherboard in the time I had left. :distraught:
It's a shame as the "base edit" is SO CLOSE of being completed (LITERALLY just needed footage of 5 games), and I could definitely have done the refinements in the week leading up to today... It'll still get released some point this year; but won't quite have the same magic like it otherwise would... 🙁

#Pitivi is really buggy for working with videos. So I had to switch to #Kdenlive for my occasional video tasks.
Today, it was Kdenlive (not even available in #NixOS!) that tested my frustration tolerance way too much: crashed (but restored), effect could be applied 3 times but identical task didn't work the 4th+5th time. Result contains ugly red artifacts that could not be removed.
Is there any proper FOSS video manipulation software I could use for cutting, obfuscation, inserting images, ...?
I watched some #OpenShot tutorials and it really looked great as a replacement of the bad #pitivi or #kdenlive experiences.
So I installed OpenShot 2.6.1 on my Debian stable to re-do the latest kdenlive-task to fix its broken result, imported a clip, opened the preferences and the tool crashed.
I would love to continue using #Wayland & #Sway, but ugh, there's so many little things that just don't work right.
• The #Audacity playhead only updates each time I move the mouse in & out of the tracks area. Tooltips open as windows with title bars in the center of the screen.
• #Kdenlive has unintentionally transparent areas. My wallpaper shines through around the video previews, some lists (e.g. file browser) are initially fully transparent/empty.
@Skoop I don't know what you need that Premiere offers. I only do low level video cutting & combining with a few sound & video effects/filters. #KDEnlive is enough for me.
