With the arrival of GAME RECORDING Beta, will it be possible to integrate the valve recording system and kdenlive, to help with Kdenlive MARKERS and cuts to improve editing? An integration between kdenlive and steam is what Iām asking for. Is it possible for this feature to be implemented? https://store.steampowered.com/gamerecording

Here's the refined feature request incorporating your detailed gameplay recording specifications, structured for maximum clarity in Bugzilla: --- **š® Enhanced Steam Game Recording Integration for Kdenlive** **Core Feature Request** Native support for Steam's **event-triggered recordings** with achievement markers and intelligent clipping in Kdenlive. --- **š Proposed Workflow** 1. **Event-Triggered Markers** - Automatic insertion of metadata markers when: - Achievements unlock - Game events occur (kills, deaths, etc. - for Valve/Source games) - **Marker content**: ```plaintext [ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED] ā¢ Icon: [Achievement_Icon.webp] ā¢ Title: "Lagoon City Completed" (localized via Steam) ā¢ Description: "Cleared all of LAGOON CITY" ``` 2. **Smart Clipping System** - **Clip generation**: - Default 12-second clips (5s pre-event + 2s event + 5s post-event) - Preserves original VOD while creating edited clip copies - **Visual treatment**: - Achievement pop-up animation rendered as burn-in overlay - Optional XML metadata track for frame-accurate editing 3. **Editing Advantages** ```plaintext ā¢ Auto-generated timeline markers for all events ā¢ Batch export of achievement highlights ā¢ Searchable clip library filtered by event type ``` --- **š Localization & Compatibility** - Leverages Steam's existing achievement translation system - Supports all Steam-recognized: - Achievements (see [SteamDB example](https://steamdb.info/app/2022670/stats/)) - Source Engine events (TF2/CS2 killfeeds, etc.) --- **š” Why This Matters** _"For 'Let's Play' creators, this eliminates hours of manual editing. Currently, I have to:_ 1. _Scrub through hours of VODs looking for achievement sounds_ 2. _Manually add titles/descriptions_ 3. _Rebuild context with B-roll_ _With this integration, Kdenlive could automatically assemble highlight reels."_
