Are you selecting the 'Hardware Accelerated (experimental)' codecs in the Render menu?

Apparently Kdenlive doesn't fully utilize the GPU when rendering even when those are selected, but it should use about 30% of the GPU or so.

Oof. Well Davinci uses my GPU fully and I didn't have to do anything 😮‍💨

Yes, unfortunately Kdenlive still has a ways to go when it comes to hardware acceleration. I think it's mostly the MLT Media Engine that's holding it back.

Did you try the video editor of Blender? I did some of video editing with it. It can use ffmpeg for exporting and parallelization for composition.

I haven't tried it myself, but everything I'd read and seen of using it for that purpose seemed to indicate it was not terribly intuitive to use, despite being very powerful.
