Do you want background removal?

@kdenlive @kde Yes, even backgrounds not shot on greenscreen

The new background removal tool is ready for testing! One of the many nifty features planned for 2025.
Give it a spin and let us know what you think.

- @kdenlive @kde I'm really looking forward to this new function!
- @kdenlive @kde A new Kdenlive video effect coming in 2025. Sounds awesome.

I dont do much video editing but for what I have done that would've been pretty helpful.

That'd be great I'd say

Wait, what FOSS model does KDEnlive use for this?
- @JackGreenEarth This feature is based on the Meta Segment Anything Model 2 (SAM 2) running locally on your machine.
  Technical details for the initial implementation: https://invent.kde.org/multimedia/kdenlive/-/mergerequests/564

:o

@kdenlive @kde Amazing to see all the progress!

imo thats the only feature kdenlive is missing in comparison to other software

@kdenlive @kde How about ripple cut? It's a major reason someone complained in a youtube video

Sigh Another donation to-go....

@kdenlive @kde This video was probably recorded on a phone. The background removal was probably also done on a phone.
- This post has #kdenlive tag. AFAIK it is a desktop-only application.

AI garbage. I wish hologram Tupac would cap all these AIs
- This is a legitimately good use of the technology.
- I don't think it's ai garbage that gets hyped into everything (see: gen ai)
  It's more akin to video call platforms having the "green screen with any background" feature. It just finds the foreground objects and removes everything else. It's a pretty standard feature that's been around for a while.
