How to install KdenLive on Ubuntu 16.04?

Solution 1:

You can install it through the software centre, just search for "Kdenlive" in the software centre, and click Install. You can also install it through the terminal by typing

sudo apt-get install kdenlive

That's it.

Note that you will not get the very latest version by doing this - if you want to have the latest version, you'll need to add the PPA. Do this by typing

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:kdenlive/kdenlive-stable && sudo apt-get update

in a terminal before installing it through the software centre or using apt-get install

Solution 2:

Type this: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kdenlive/kdenlive-testing

and then press 'Enter when you are asked to'

Then type this command:sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

Then sudo apt-get install kdenlive

That's it you are done with it.

There was a small pop-up link leading you through the process of installing stated as 'Read about installing', This same process applies for each and every other 'PPA' named as Personal Package Archive.
