you need to add the video file as a video clip.
Menu: Project -> Add Clip

I did not use it for something serious, just a bit of playing with it,
but AFAIK the reason is simply that kdenlive lets you aggregate multiple clips
to create one final video out of that, e.g. a video clip added with a music 
clip etc.
To create the final video you need to render the kdenlive project to a target 
video format

This link may help

http://software.opensuse.org/package/kdenlive

Found with the search tool off the opensuse build service page. Always the best 
place too look if running opensuse.

http://software.opensuse.org/package/kdenlive

There are also a number of projects kicking about on the build service that may 
offer additional facilities in packages that suse feel they can't offer in std 
releases for the usual reasons. Finding them is more difficult. Googling 
opensuse build service version eg 12.3 package name often finds them. There is 
an option to show unstable versions on these pages ie not part of the official 
release. If you follow the project link a page will come up showing on which 
opensuse releases the package built correctly. This is usually the way to get 
the very latest release of a package. In this case using this method may add an 
unofficial multimedia repo to your updates. This can be browsed to see what it 
offers. I assume there still is one but I haven't used it for some years.

Just tried the 2nd approach and not much luck but am in the wilds of Wales 
using a neighbours wi fi and :-( windoze too.

I have NOT used it personally, but I've seen some article teasers on it, 
I think mostly on LWN, which is known for its quality Linux/FLOSS 
coverage, AND for its reasonably high quality comments, which many times 
point out other options or otherwise provide very useful information -- 
so be sure and scan them too.  Doing a quick search there, these three 
candidates look interesting (newest first):

LWN Feature: Keeping up with Kdenlive, Sept. 19, 2012, by David Philips.  
Includes several screenshots and a full (but not too detailed) run-thru 
from dependencies list and configuring/compiling, thru actually using the 
program to assemble a video from multiple sources, to hitting the big 
render button to get a finished product.

http://lwn.net/Articles/516662/

BTW, that article links the kdenlive user's manual online at kde userbase, 
and that link *IS* live as I just tested it:

http://userbase.kde.org/Kdenlive/Manual

Back to LWN:

Teaser for "Intro to kdenlive" from opensource.com, the first of several 
articles they were doing on it (Nov 16, 2011).  This is just the LWN 
teaser for the first of the opensource.com series, not an LWN feature, 
but the opensource.com series is six parts (part 1 intro, which I checked 
and which this parts list comes from, so it's still live, 2 advanced 
editing techniques, 3, effects and transitions, 4, color correction, 5, 
audio, 6, workflow and conclusion), which means it should get into some 
decent detail.

http://lwn.net/Articles/467564/


Meanwhile, for a broader picture both in terms of where kdenlive would 
fit into the process and of other options as well, altho it's a bit dated 
now, LWN's "Grumpy Editor" series had a three-part series on the whole 
video editing process (Part 1, capture, 2, editing, 3, dvd authoring), 
back in late 2007 and early 2008.  This is actually the coverage I was 
remembering.  Part 2 covered (obviously an earlier version of) kdenlive, 
as well as some others.  Here's the grumpy editor mainpage, which list 
those and others.  (You might wish to bookmark the page for other reviews 
if you like these, or if you're familiar with lwn, just remember to check 
their grumpy editor series if you're looking for something, as I 
basically did here, altho I remembered this coverage specifically as 
well.)

http://lwn.net/Articles/grumpy-editor/


As I said it's nothing I'm personally involved with, but I believe it's a 
pretty safe guess that will get you farther than you are now. =:^)

Well, you have (in rpmfusion):  
kmediafactory 
dvdstyler
bombono-dvd
openshot

and 

flowblade (this is in package review
https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2855#c30
have last src.rpm and spec , I can give you a place to download the rpms
for F19 , I'm building it right now ... ) 

from Fedora itself: 
pitivi


if you try one of than and like it , let me know because I'm still
