Thanks for your report!

Some questions:

> They worked in the past.

1. When have they stopped to work? When you updated your OS or when you updated Kdenlive or "out of nowhere"?
2. What is your Linux distro?

BTW Probably a duplicate of BUG 444724, but let's wait for your answer first…

To help answer you question I just tested on 21.12 both flatpak and appimage and it now works again. So looks like a regression that was fixed? Feel free to close the ticket.

Thank you!

But FYI:
1. It was a while ago so I don't remember when it stopped working.
2. I'm using Fedora 34.

Nice to hear it is fixed! (And thanks for your answer)

I don't know what regressed it, but I suspect a third-party library since we haven't changed anything to the jog shuttle code for quite a long time…
