Hi!

When trying to import an mp4 file recorded with my smartphone as a clip into kdenlive, I only get the audio track, but no video. However, kaffeine plays the same file without any issues (audio + video). The only issue reported by kdenlive's config wizard is "No hardware encoders found.", but I believe this should only affect rendering, but not file import. Is there anything else which needs to be installed and/or configured manually such that mp4 files can be imported into kdenlive?

Here are some details about my system configuration:
  • Linux openSUSE Leap 15.4
  • kdenlive-21.12.3-bp154.1.38.x86_64
  • kaffeine-2.0.18-lp154.85.56.x86_64
  • ffmpeg-5-5.1.2-lp154.35.1.x86_64
  • libopenh264-7-2.3.1-pm154.1.1.x86_64
And this is what "ffprobe" reports about the streams in the file I tried to import:
Code: Select all
  Stream #0:0[0x1](eng): Video: h264 (High) (avc1 / 0x31637661), yuv420p(tv, smpte170m/smpte170m/bt709, progressive), 640x480, 3082 kb/s, SAR 1:1 DAR 4:3, 30.04 fps, 30 tbr, 90k tbn (default)
    Metadata:
      creation_time   : 2022-11-04T19:05:06.000000Z
      handler_name    : VideoHandle
      vendor_id       : [0][0][0][0]
  Stream #0:1[0x2](eng): Audio: aac (LC) (mp4a / 0x6134706D), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 256 kb/s (default)
    Metadata:
      creation_time   : 2022-11-04T19:05:06.000000Z
      handler_name    : SoundHandle
      vendor_id       : [0][0][0][0]

Do you have any ideas how to fix this, or shall I provide more information about my system?

Thanks & kind regards,
Markus

Sorry fo the late reply :( i've lost the discussion...
well..i'm using latest nighlty version of kdenlive for Windows.. and the clip is placed on timeline as VIDEO/AUDIO :( (i was hoping that the issue can be the clip format)
