Attachments: Warning window when trying to add JPG to Project Bin

Description mchesleyjohnson 2025-01-17 14:48:50 UTC
When I try to drag a JPG from the Project Bin to the Timeline, the application crashes.

To reproduce:

- Add JPG to Project Bin
- Click and drag to Timeline
- Crash

I have cleared cache, memory, used Task Manager to make sure app is gone; rebooted system, still crashes.

Are you on Windows11?
Please run Kdenlive as administrator to see if it still crashes.

Yes, Win11.  I just now ran the app as administrator, and tried to add a single JPG to the projectd bin.  I got a "warning"  window from the app, but the warning window was empty.  The JPG looks fine -- I can open it OK in other apps.

I experiemented and tried to add just one JPG to the Project Bin with this result.  Running under Win11, running app as Administrator.
