When I make a film, I don’t watch the material in advance. I immediately load everything into Kdenlive so that you can immediately watch and make markers marking successful doubles. In the process of viewing, there is a desire to rename a video, but if I do it, I’ll have to upload it to the project with a new one and put a new marker on it, and so on. I think it would be cool to be able to rename the video file directly from kdenlive, so that it loses touch with the project. (I know that inside kdenlive you can rename downloaded clips, but this is not what you need. It does not affect the video file itself.)
Thanks for your report! It is true, that you can not rename the source file from within kdenlive. This is maybe a nice feature and I keep the report open because of this. BUT you can rename a file on the filesystem and use the "Replace Clip" option to keep markers etc. (Tested with Version 20.12.3)
