I have upgraded to 0.7.8 and i still can not seem to find where to change saturation, etc.

thanks for your help.

Have you installed the frei0r plugins? From memory Curves is one of those; also saturat0r and many others.

ok thalandian thanks for that. done install of frei0r plugins. still not there but maybe there is something i need to do to have them show up in the effects list. if so please let me know.

thanks

Re-run the Config wizard (Settings menu).

Ok i did that and still no new effects were added to the effects list.

hi, are you missing some particular effect, or all effects?

i have effects. the ones that i know i am missing are the ones that have been added to mess with colour. for example i have technicolor as always but i don't have curves or saturation.

Please, can you report the version of frei0r-plugins installed on your system?

No 1.2.0 is not too old ...

In kdenlive user interface have you in the effect list a folder named "Colour correction".
If you have it, can you list the effects present in there?

In a terminal, type:

melt -query filters

If you don't see frei0r.curves and frei0r.saturat0r and in the list, then the problem is between MLT and frei0r...

Hi,

stop me if I'm wrong but it seems that frei0r-plugins in not included in official Mandriva repositories (not found in main, contrib or non-free). In this case mlt is not built with frei0r support.

yep that is correct sunab. i added frie0r after the fact as has honza. i think that maybe a reinstalling of mlt and/or kdenlive might do the trick is there anything special one has to do when installing mlt to have it include frie0r.

In order to work properly mlt need to be compiled against frei0r-plugins.
If you don't know haw to achieve this yourself use mlt packages provided by the MIB (Mandriva International Backports) repository, they are built with frei0r support. Use at your own risk ...

Wahhoooo. thank you sunap. it is now working. appreciate all your time.
