The Kdenlive Project XML Analyzer is a simple tool that can shed some light on what's going on inside Kdelive XML project files. Please note that only Kdenlive project files from around 15.08 and later are supported. There is no support for old Kdenlive 0.9.x projects (and never will be).
The analyzer shows the following information:
- general project information, such as project ID, document version, Kdenlive version, et cetera.
- general project statistics, such as number of (bin) clips, title clips, audio clips, timeline clips, overall timeline length, and more.
- project bin contents, neatly sorted into folders as in Kdenlive's project bin.
- timeline tracks configuration, with track title and properties, such as muted, hidden, locked, and so on.
- internally added Transitions, now this is something Kdenlive never shows you,
but in case your project exhibits odd audio mixing or video compositing behavior, this may be the place to check:
- video compositing transitions: which ones and between which tracks, neatly sorted and grouped.
- audio mixing transitions: which ones on which tracks.
- timeline guides, with their names and positions.
- clip list, just plain flat and sorted by name (no folders here).
You can try our Kdenlive Project Analyzer online (Chrome/Chromium, Firefox, and any recent web browser with decent JavaScript support) without any installation. This way, you can easily and quickly check your Kdenlive project files. As the analyzer runs only locally inside your web browser, we and GitHub won't ever see your precious projects. The analyzer never uploads any files!
There is no specific installation; simply download/clone this project into its own directory. Then please install
the Saxonce folder from the Saxon-CE XSLT 2.0 distribution into your local Kdenlive Project Analyzer copy (keeping the Saxonce folder). That's all.
Simply load the file kdenlive-project-analyzer.html that's inside the main folder for this project
into your Chrome/Chromium, or Firefox web browser. Thanks to the fine JavaScript-based Saxon-CE XSLT 2.0/XPath 2.0 engine, the
project analyzer now works with most recent and decent web browsers.
You should now see a simple form with a file chooser. Just select a .kdenlive project file ...
and off you go. After a few seconds should see an analysis report below the form.
