SUMMARY
kdenlive.app shows a nice and high resolution icon but when the app is launched it switches to a low resolution version, which is wrong and awful...

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open kdenlive
2. see how the icon changes

OBSERVED RESULT
The high res icon restores when you close kdenlive

EXPECTED RESULT
A high resolution icon version should always be visible

macOS: 12.7.6
(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
KDE Plasma Version:

Comment 4 Pablo 2025-08-22 14:50:34 UTC

I have just tested `kdenlive-release_25.08-10927-macos-clang-x86_64` and the problem persists...

Is it the correct version or the problem is somewhere else?

let me know if you need me to try something, I'm happy to help

Cheers

Comment 5 Pablo 2025-08-24 14:58:40 UTC

I tried with `kdenlive-release_25.08-10940-macos-clang-x86_64` and the problem persists so I guess there is something else...
