After google for several free video editing software for mac os. I decided to download and install kdenlive. It never comes to my mind that it would be a disaster for me.<\/p>\n
Here are some problems I came across:<\/p>\n
A.Time<\/p>\n
I don’t understand why there is not pre-compiled version of kdenlive and everyone who try to install it must have to build by themself.<\/p>\n
After build for hours, the first error happened and the build process stopped.<\/p>\n
B.Errors<\/p>\n
1.Java not found<\/p>\n
It’s my fault. So I installed the java environment (javadeveloper_10.6_10m3261.dmg) from Apple Developer Connection website. And then I continue the build process.<\/p>\n
2.Atlas build failed<\/p>\n
After another few hours, the process stopped again with this error message : atlas build failed. I googled and try to do the following action and it worked. So I continued the build process.<\/p>\n
sudo port clean –all atlas<\/p>\n
3.kdenlive build failed<\/p>\n
After another few hours. The error message showed that : qt qmake not found. So I googled again and do the following action and it worked. And I continued the install process and finally finished successfully.<\/p>\n
There are a lot of portfiles. Find the portfile in kdenlive directory.<\/p>\n
There is a line PortGroup kde4 1.0<\/p>\n
Modify the line to PortGroup kde4 1.1<\/p>\n
4.POST INSTALL<\/p>\n
open -a kdeinit4 lead to “file not found” errror.<\/p>\n
I did it again and it worked. I didn’t know why.<\/p>\n
C.Mistakes<\/p>\n
1.I misuderstood the meaning of the following description in the installation document. And it cost me another few hours to install.Just remember that DO NOT DO THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS.<\/p>\n
If you want to reclaim disk space: P.S. After I tried hard to learn to use kdenlive, because it just crash every time I add a video clip, I finally decided to give up. Now I turn to iMovie, the simplest and maybe easiest way to get my work done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" After google for several free video editing software for mac os.

\nAfter all these, I still have to thank for the great team for this great software contribution.<\/p>\n
