Kdenlive 25.04 Video Editor Lands with Local Object Segmentation
The Kdenlive team has just released the brand new version, 25.04, as part of the wider KDE Gear 25.04 application bundle. Chief among the headline features is a locally processed object-segmentation plug-in powered by the SAM2 model.
Editors can now generate precise object masks, making it straightforward to strip out a background or limit an effect to a moving subject—no round-trips to external services are required.
Moreover, audio thumbnails on the timeline have been rebuilt “under the hood.” The refactor doubles down on performance while tightening visual accuracy, so users can scrub crowded timelines without the usual lag or guesswork.
