Description Fabian 2021-09-10 19:23:01 UTC

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a title clip.
2. Change the project's resolution.
3. Double-click the title clip to edit it.
I have not tested whether this always happens with these steps, but it does at least happen every time I double-click a title clip in my current project.

OBSERVED RESULT
Warning: "This title clip was created with a different frame size.", then crash.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.85.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I do not have debug information, because the kdenlive-dbg and libmlt-dbg packages are not available on my system (at least the package manager doesn't list any candidates).
This issue is related to #419985.

Thank you for reporting. I cannot reproduce the crash following your steps. Please try with the official Flatpak or AppImage to see if this is a packaging issue.

I've gone to apps.kde.org/kdenlive, clicked "Install on Linux", that prompted whether to open with "Discover" or "Add/remove software", I picked the first, installed it and clicked "Launch". I got a KDEnlive instance with default settings and the bug does not occur in there. But now I can't figure out where that was actually installed, so I can't create a shortcut to it. And even if I right-click on the entry in the window list and click "Start new instance", I get my old version back. How do I figure out where this new installation is located?

Comment 3 Vincent PINON 2021-09-27 15:04:16 UTC

I guess discover installed the flatpak version (do you have flathub repo installed?)
Then in KDE apps menu, when you type "kdenlive" you should have 2 icons, try to identify which launches the new one.
Or maybe remove the distro version to be sure to use the flatpak?

I uninstalled both versions of KDEnlive, installed it again via yay (pacman) and got the same issue. So apparently it has to do with packaging somehow.
