Description Dr. Ashutosh Pradhan 2020-07-26 14:06:13 UTC
SUMMARY
I have created a project to edit a one hour twenty minutes video file. After that I closed the file as one of the video was updated. Now the project file while loading files crashes at 53%

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a project file
2. Import videos .mp4 files one file 1:20:00 duration
3. Change one of the .mp4 file size with few changes
4. Close the project file 
5. Try to open project file
6. It crashes at 53%

OBSERVED RESULT
Project file crashes while loading clips at 53% of loading files

EXPECTED RESULT
Project file should open and load all files

Pleaes try with the nightly build. https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/Kdenlive_Nightly_mingw64/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/

WARNING: This version has a new project type that is not backwards compatible... so you won't be able to use older versions to open new files.
Comment 3 Dr. Ashutosh Pradhan 2020-08-09 06:03:48 UTC
DO these nightly builds stable?
Comment 4 emohr 2020-08-09 14:18:08 UTC
Yes. The daily build represent version 20.08 at the moment.
Comment 5 Douglas Niven 2020-09-21 14:41:38 UTC
I have the same issue with version 20.08.1 and the latest nightly build. The program freezes loading existing projects at various percentages of loading clips. With the latest nightly build it seems to go farther then freezes with 'validating' checked at bottom left.
I am using Windows 7 64 bit.
Comment 6 emohr 2020-09-21 16:01:30 UTC
Maybe similar to Bug 409477.
