@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 A new Kdenlive video effect coming in 2025. Sounds awesome.
- @kdenlive @kde I'm really looking forward to this new function!
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/-/merge/_requests/564
I dont do much video editing but for what I have done that would've been pretty helpful.
:o
Sigh Another donation to-go....
imo thats the only feature kdenlive is missing in comparison to other software
@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.
