OpenTimelineIO support was rewritten from scratch in 25.04.0, using the C++ libraries instead of Python. The python module was not really maintained and broken with the introduction of nested timelines. I recommend that you upgrade to a more recent Kdenlive version. |
Created attachment 182076 [details] Kdenlive OpenTimelineIO module missing SUMMARY Kdenlive does not recognize OpenTimelineIO despite its being installed. I installed pip as follows: $ sudo apt install python-pip #python 2 $ sudo apt install python3-pip #python 3 I then installed opentimelineio as follows: sudo python -m pip install opentimelineio I then started Kdenlive. When I click File>OpenTimelineIO Import or Export, a window (see attachment) appears that says: The opentimelineio python module is required for OpenTimelineIO conversion. When I click "Install missing dependencies", it says: Installing missing packages: {'opentimelineio'} I left it for 15 minutes or so, and nothing happened. I can drag-and-drop .mp4 and .mkv files into Kdenlive and, mysteriously, that succeeds. But then, File>OpenTimelineIO Export (and Import) still do not work. They open the same window as above.
