After updating Kdenlive yesterday from version 0.8 to 0.8.2 it crashes when trying to open a project or clips.
Nothing helps! it crashes every time. Unusable!
I'm runnung Kubuntu 10.04 Lucid!
Same here. I converted from the svn version to 0.8.2 when it was announced and now it crashes every time I open a recent file. I tried to submit a bug report but it said there was no useful information in it.
Ubuntu Lucid 10.04
No problem.
Just install last release of kdebase for Lucid.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install kdebase
I have to create new projects and be really carefully saving all time.
Damnit... I have the exact same problem. Upgrade and cannot add a clip or it crashes immediately with "no useful information". It crashes every time.
I have waited forever, since the last upgrade fraked everything. I had kdenlive working but then it was effectively unusable. Now it is totally unusalbe - after looking forward to this forever.
Does anybody know how to find older versions... Or another video editing program that works ok in Linux?
how could I open the progran if it's my first time using it??
Hi Warwec,
I'll try and post the results. Thanks for answering.
waverc: I'm in Linux Mint 8 KDE. The KDE version is 4.3.5
If I do: "adding the kubuntu backports ppa.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports
start synaptics -> reload -> "mark all upgrades" -> "apply".
Is that likely in any way to screw the computer.. and necessitate backups, etc. Or is it pretty safe, assuming it works in Linux Mint 8 KDE?
I've done changes required, but updated Kdenlive don't run.
I use Gnome environment.
What I can do?
Is possible come back to 0.8?
Where Kdenlive base packet is posted? I don't find it!
i get the same problem as far as trying to add a clip. i can open an old project file just fine (it even creates a backup putting a zero on the filename for me) and even render it BUT as soon as I go to the add clip choice from the project menu pulldown, kdenlive crashes and error log says Executable: kdenlive PID: 15415 Signal: 11 (Segmentation fault) BUT also Application: Kdenlive (kdenlive), signal: Segmentation fault
Sure enough I have KDE 4.4.5 installed on this old Ubuntu 10.04 install. What is the supposed solution? Upgrade KDE?
UPDATE: i am able to drag and drop clips from nautilus into the kdenlive window into project tree tab and it does NOT crash so that's a good thing. HUH.
The same crashes happen to me when I'm trying to check the 'project settings' or when I want to add clips, but strangely enough I noticed that àfter a crash, when you restart through 'The KDE Crash Handler' every works just well!! Opening clips or checking the setting doesn't cause any new crashes!!
Is there a linux-expert that has an answer for this?
still curious what the issue is here, i can't seem to get a useful crash report.
OK, if you follow this:
The Ubuntu 10.04 crash is a known issue. A fix has been commited last night to our new git repository, the sunab experimental repository should have the update in a few hours (packages compiling right now).
So for all ubuntu users who want to try it, you can get the sunab experimental packages:
https://launchpad.net/~sunab/+archive/kdenlive-svn
ok, i removed all existing mlt and kdenlive. removed the sunab stable ppa, and added new svn ppa which is (ppa:sunab/kdenlive-svn). installed and all is well now, it doesn't crash anymore with add clip or open BUT now when I play what I have in my timeline, the position indicator does NOT move. it's a small issue BUT obviously I need to know where I am in the timeline if I pause the video while I am playing it back within the project monitor. At least I was able to get a new video up using the svn experimental ppa.
Any thoughts OR hopefully it will get fixed with the new .8.2.1 you're going to publish.
I reported the timeline pointer issue early yesterday evening and have since received feedback that it has been fixed. I assume it will be in the next kdenlive-svn update. It's amazing how difficult it is without it, but no problem, being at this end of the software sometimes mishaps occur.
awesome, thanks for letting me know. well, I updated to the latest a minute ago and I am now running 0.8.3+git20111111.08fd8d1c-0ubuntu0~sunab~lucid1
It has fixed the position indicator not moving when playing your timeline in the project monitor BUT now when I apply a dissolve transition, it doesn't show it in my timeline. it doesn't show up in the effects list either. It does appear to have applied a dissolve between my 2 clips which is really weird. Not sure where I should submit this? I understand I am using experimental svn and there will be issues. That's all fine and what not, just want to aid in reporting bugs properly. Time is off the essence so I need to go finish my video before someone else on YT uploads it first. Lots happening on the COD YT front. LOL
UPDATE: I've had to go back to sunab stable because now that I can't see the transitions added to clips (screen for example) there is no way to edit what tracks it affects nor can I drag it so that it affects more clips to the right. Also, I need to use the affine to locate a video watermark which I can't do because I can't see the affine transition after I add it to my clips.
Yep, same here. Just issued another bug report but it's a bit vague so I'll do a little more testing on an old project.
EDIT: Discussing this here seems to be in the wrong thread.
Packages from my repositories ARE NOT compiled against KDE backports so, at some point you may experience problems.
A bugfix release is expected soon to address few problems of 0.8.2
