SUMMARY
When I render a second file the output file switches from the location I set as default

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Render file
2. Render second file  
3. Every successive file also switches  

OBSERVED RESULT
Project [output] file switches from  
/home/twister/Lucy/Edited Vid/  
To 
/home/twister/ Video/  

EXPECTED RESULT
The destination file should stay the same

Comment 3 Visikde 2024-09-03 18:47:24 UTC

yesterdays update of the flat through debian stable discover, KDEnlive about shows 24.08.0
Opening new instance, 1st rendered file ignores the project default location & reverts to Video folder, switching to  my project preferences, the file renders to the right location Lucy/edited vid 
Subsequent renders, remembers the file name, but reverts to Video folder

Thanks for your report. The fix was too late for 24.08.0, it will be in 24.08.1 which should be released in 8-9 days.

Comment 6 Visikde 2024-11-20 01:20:15 UTC

The bug didn't resolve on flatpak version 24.08.3 until yesterdays update  
Mark solved
