ok so i have been saving to a free space partition since i started using Kdenlive and now i cant!! or at least it wont let me get to my free space partition when I go to save a video or a render! any one know a work around? this is definitely NOT a plus for this update any help would be greatly appreciated

What do you mean by: kdenlive does not let you get to the xy partition?

On render kdenlive 15.8 opens a dialog that allows you to enter the destination path directly and holds a button that opens a file dialog that shows up all partitions availabe.

In case you may have been bitten by the "save dialog does not appear": this is not a partition issue, but instead a bug in the underlying KDE Framework 5. At this time, there is no real fix for this bug, yet you can work around it: press ESC, so you regain control. Then try again. Sometimes it takes a few fruitless attempts before the save dialog properly comes up. Annoying, but there is no real fix yet.

ok thanks I will try that, wonder if it will auto save to the right location once i tell it where to save to

There is no auto save, but there is Ctrl-S always at your fingertips.

tried it and no matter how many times i brought it up it would never show a partition for me to save to

I still don't understand what you mean by partition, you are speaking in tongues. In unix, there is a single file name space. Did you make sure that all filesystems you need are properly mounted? Or do you try to access a remote smb share without mounting?
