Description Christoph Jüngling 2019-06-28 09:57:17 UTC

The "Save" button on the DVD Wizard dialog (used to save the current DVD configuration to a file) prompts for a folder and a file name, but doesn't add the default file extension ".kdvd" automatically. So, if I give just "test" as the file name, the file ends up being saved as "test", which then cannot be opend by "Load" because of its fixed file filter setting.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start kdenlive, invoke "File -> DVD Wizard"
2. Press "Save" button on the lower left of this dialog
3. Set "test" as the file name (no quotes, no trailing dot) and click "Save"
4. Press "Load" button on the lower left of this dialog
5. Try to find the file you already saved

OBSERVED RESULT

1. During save, the file extension is not added to the file name.
2. During open, the file can not be found in the list.
3. During open, the file filter cannot be changed from "DVD project" to e.g. "all files"

EXPECTED RESULT

The saved file shall consist of the default file extension ".kdvd", if not otherwise defined.

I cannot reproduce it on my system.

There's a checkbox to add the ".kdvd" extension automatically. This checkbox is checked by default.

I can't reproduce on 19.08.0 either. With save it adds *.kdvd automaticly to the file name. Please test with 19.08 as Kdenlive 17.12.3 is not supported anymore.

Sorry for the delay. I can't test with kdenlive 19.08.1 because of missing MLT modules - and I could not find a way to install this.

Please try with the current Kdenlive AppImage version 19.08.1  https://files.kde.org/kdenlive/release/

Thanks for the link. The DVD wizard's save dialog pretends to work with "DVD-Projekt (*.kdvd)", but if I don't specify the file extension in the "Dateiname" (file name) field, it is saved without any extension. See attachments.
