Hello, My last effort in building Kdenlive is here : https://github.com/vpinon/mxe see most useful info here: plugins/apps/README.kdenlive plugins/multimedia/README.md since then, my patches have been merged upstream so to be dropped after upgrading MLT & Kdenlive. As I had no Windows machine on which I could play with dev tools, I only cross-compiled GDB with Kdenlive, but debugging without IDE is painful, +I didn't easily get any log messages in Windows (despite I switched KDE Frameworks to Debug builds) so I didn't go much further. Help from people more used to the job & platform could be really more efficient! (I'm not a dev, I don't use Windows!) Please let me know of any attempt, even failed, to help anyone to progress on this task! Good luck, Vincent
