ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Comment 1 erjiang 2022-07-24 03:50:27 UTC

I was not able to reproduce this (latest master on Ubuntu). Did you choose to Cancel or Transcode when offered? Both options seem to dismiss the dialog without doing anything.

There does seem like a potential improvement here. Kdenlive doesn't seem to know that it's a jpeg without the extension, but it does print this message:

    === GOT DROPPED MIME:  "image/jpeg"

So something knows that it's a jpeg and Kdenlive can probably use that information.
