Hi!

This might arguably be a feature request - but:

On the (getting rarer! :) occasions when some action crashes kdenlive, being able to rely on it having autosaved all but the last few moments of work, and able to reliably restore them when you restart, makes those crashes *much* less frustrating than they otherwise might be.

But I discovered recently that changes to the subtitles are *not* saved and do not get restored.  Any changes to them since the last manual save will be lost.

It would be nice if they get automatically backed up along with the project files.

Thanks!
Ron

Seems to be fixed in 24.12

Confirmed.  I can see .ass files getting saved in subdirs of .backup/ and just deliberately kill -9'd a test project with unsaved subtitles and they are restored as expected.  Thanks!
