'data/scripts/checkvosk.py' (called from
'src/dialogs/kdenlivesettingsdialog.cpp') has a call to 'python -m pip
install', can it be neutralised?

There are a few python scripts, are we missing 'python' in inputs?

'ffmpeg' is invoked from a few Python scripts and from C++ code, using
ffmpegpath.  So FWIW, the absolute path to 'ffmpeg' can be baked in
with a few substitute* and by adding a line to the following code
in src/core.cpp:

    if (isAppImage) {
        QString appPath = qApp->applicationDirPath();
        KdenliveSettings::setFfmpegpath(QDir::cleanPath(appPath + QStringLiteral("/ffmpeg")));
        KdenliveSettings::setFfplaypath(QDir::cleanPath(appPath + QStringLiteral("/ffplay")));
        KdenliveSettings::setFfprobepath(QDir::cleanPath(appPath + QStringLiteral("/ffprobe")));
        KdenliveSettings::setRendererpath(QDir::cleanPath(appPath + QStringLiteral("/melt")));
        m_mainWindow->init(QDir::cleanPath(appPath + QStringLiteral("/../share/mlt/profiles")));
    } else {
        // Open connection with Mlt
        m_mainWindow->init(MltPath);
        // setFfmpegpath and the like can be set here!
    }

YMMW whether this is an improvement or not.

Greetings,
Maxime.
