Screenshot of the Curves effect with some settings applied.

Applying and messing the "Curves" effect has no effect on the image in any of the possible settings combinations. The effect still slows down playback, as if the image were being processed.

The "Show graph in picture" checkbox is the only setting to have an effect on the image. The graph that shows inside the picture shows a straight line within a transparent grid background, as if the changes to the curve were not being read.

On a side note, the similar "Bézier Curves" effect is working just fine.

For me the curves affect produces a black picture in the preview pane. This bug is new with version 19.04
Comment 3 emohr 2019-06-10 10:15:08 UTC 
Confirmed. I opened issue: https://invent.kde.org/kde/kdenlive/issues/242 .

Workaround: use effect Bezier Curves.
