Created attachment 125418 [details] A comparison between a view of Kdenlive and VLC media player SUMMARY When importing videos into Kdenlive, color is noticeably not as vivid and seems to have a white "tint" over it almost. It renders it like this as well. Seems to be visible more in videos taken at sunset. It does *not* behave like this using the 19.12.1 AppImage and looks exactly the same as VLC does, I think it may be related to hardware acceleration somehow as the AppImage does not support it. I'm not sure. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Import footage into Kdenlive 2. Open said footage in VLC 3. Look at side-by-side with the preview window OBSERVED RESULT Footage has a weird white tint look to it compared to the VLC view EXPECTED RESULT Footage should look mostly the same as VLC SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: 5.4.12 KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.65.0 Qt Version: 5.12.5
Yes this is MOVIT releated. As MOVIT (GPU acceleration) is not stable it's switched off in AppImage. Switch off MOVIT for the time being.
Ahh I see. I think for now I'll leave it enabled and then render without it as it's basically impossible to edit without gpu acceleration for me.
Hi! Please note that MOVIT has been experimental so far and was not well maintained. Due to lots of issue we recently disabled it. See https://invent.kde.org/multimedia/kdenlive/-/commit/41b74bd282e8a96be3b75f423f8101fa506d858d In the long run there are plans to add a GPU again either with enhanced MOVIT or a new system, there is no eta yet. Thanks again for your report!
