Hello, I am running Ubuntu 9.04 and Kdenlive 0.7.3 and would like to find a way to run a clip backwards.
I have seen people mention using the Speed Effect along with an option for reverse, but I don't seem to have
this option. Speed is not in the Effects menu, but is accessible by right clicking on the clip in the timeline
and selecting "Change Clip Speed", it doesn't have an option for reverse.
Is playing a clip backwards possible in 0.7.3?
Thanks

Thanks, I'll be looking forward to it.
Hi
the speed effect doesn't work from many versions of Kdenlive
Will this effect be working with 0.7.5 release ?
Thanks
Changing clip speed (not reverse) works for me and others - well, maybe except with some decreased stability. Maybe you did not learn the secret magic words to make it work ;-) Or, maybe there is some subtle incompatibility with the source clip format you are trying to use.
Oh, I am sorry. I did not realize until some testing tonight that their is a Speed FILTER. Yeah, the Speed filter does not work. I am not sure why JBM added that since that filter does not exit in MLT. I was referring to the Change Speed effect available in the context menu for a clip on the timeline. That one does work.
Sorry again, I should have been stressing EFFECT - kdenlive does not call them filters as MLT does.
It seems urgent adding this so basic feature. Hopefully it can come integrated into the next version. I've been days trying to compile my MLT, because I understood that with that I can get the reverse plugin, but I have failed. I have to try Cinelerra but I find it equally difficult.
Reverse does work in MLT, but apparently still not in Kdenlive despite the fact there is a checkbox for it - not sure why it is there if it does not work. Just having something in MLT does not make it available in Kdenlive. Please keep in mind that everyone believes their pet issue is basic and urgent.
It is not implemented yet. I have a patch that is not completely safe for all editing operations. I will try to work on it some more, or hand it over to the developers more intimate with kdenlive code.
