Description Larsen 2016-06-20 21:21:14 UTC

When I try to overwrite an existing title on disk, I get "Cannot write to file /home/jdoe/kdenlive/titles/test1.kdenlivetitle".

I was able to save the file there before and the permissions look ok to me:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 jdoe jdoe 661 Jun 20 22:46 test1.kdenlivetitle

Where can I find more information on what might be wrong?


Reproducible: Always




Kdenlive 16.04.01 (missing in the version drop down)
Kubuntu 16.04

Confirmed fixed (test with 16.07.70+git20160620).

Perhaps there should be a warning when an existing file will be overwritten.
