Hi Vincent,

Happy to hear back from you. I realize that this is not a trivial thing. That
being said, I'm not sure there has been any activity focusing on this
particular issue since I first reported it almost 6 months ago -at least not in
this thread. It's even marked as 'unconfirmed' :/ Is there something I can do
to help you verify/confirm this in addition to what I've already mentioned in
the original post?

I'm currently using:
  Kubuntu 15.10 (64-bit)
  Kdenlive 15.08.1
  KDE Framework 5.18.0
  Qt 5.5.1

I just tested again as I write this to see if there was any noticeable
difference, but it's still as unusable as when I first reported. As noted, the
performance issue is in the preview offered by the Project Monitor. I then
tried the melt <projectfile>.kdenlive command, and observed the same behavior.

The melt -version command shows "melt 0.9.8". I know there's a 1.0 release
(i.e. labelled v6.0 to match the C library), but the updated package(s) don't
appear to be available in the repository yet. (Asking regular users to build
from source wouldn't exactly be user-friendly, either.)

I had actually tried rendering the zone at first as a workaround, but I found
that is not really practical/sustainable, especially when I need to spend a few
minutes trying to see if very small video/audio track adjustments worked as
intended. (Those kinds of changes that you need instant feedback to compare,
trying to sync to the millisecond.)

The problem is that the Project Monitor simply drops to 1 FPS or less, so it
defeats its intended purpose.

I don't even have a bunch of effects stacked on top of each other at once, but
I can imagine more pro-level users needing something at that level to work
properly for them, too.

If something this "basic" doesn't work for me, I wouldn't be surprised if
others simply avoid investing more time in learning/using the tool.

Please let me know if I can help you out somehow.
