I have a video where there's an object always in the same x,y coordinates within the video. Would like to remove letters or brand from this object in the video:



In this case would be to remove RØDE from the foam. With Adobe Phoshop you can use the combination of Lasso Tool, Feather and Fill Content-Aware. Is there any related method to do it with Kdenlive? It occurs to me to make a PNG picture of the microphone with transparent background, and put it in a layer at x,y position over the video, but would like to know if there's a "built-in" way to do it?

Example video with Photoshop:

This is a good result (made with Photoshop for this example). I think GIMP uses Resynthesizer. But I need it in the whole video and using Kdenlive only:

nope, on kdenlive you can only BLUR/pixelize the part... or create a rotoscope mask to replace a selected area with another pattern/clip/color/image...

i think that BLUR can make the text difficult to read... it's used also on TV... to hide brands

if the brand is on a specific x-y place you have just to create transparent PNG with the hidded-logo (using PS or any other tool) and place it to cover the brand using TRANSFORM effect on the "PATCH"

What i do personally for this, is go on gimp, make the cover up on a second layer that's transparent apart from the patch, and export that layer and put it on top of the track in kdenlive

I've just discovered that what I want to do can be done super easily with ffmpeg. Just overlay some picture with transparency over the video and re-encode the whole thing.

It can be done also with Blender.
