Just noticed, when I watch a clip in the clip monitor, the audio power meter works fine. When watching that same clip on the timeline with the Project monitor, the audio power meter is greyed out, and does not appear to work. Reproducible: Always Actual Results: Audio power meter does not work in the Project monitor Expected Results: Audi power meter to work everywhere I split the audio from clips automatically, not sure if this has something to do with it. Nah, just tested, the Project Monitor's audio power meter also does not work even when the audio is not split out.
I can confirm this issue. When I play a clip in the clip monitor, the audio levels meter works fine. But when I insert the clip into the timeline and playback the project, the project monitor audio level meter doesn't work at all. Instead, it plays on the clip monitor instead.

I just re-built kdenlive, and still the audio power meter does not work on the project monitor. https://youtu.be/DFgPahItlUA Has a short clip showing the issue
Oh, I think I know what the problem is. Evert, there is a small but in the audio level that causes it to appear when user wants to disable it. So my gues is that audio level is disabled for your project monitor. Can you go in the project monitor menu button (left of the audio level) and check if "Show Audio Levels" is enabled ?

The latest commit fixed the problem for me -- using the latest git master build.
JBM, you were right, of course. The "Show audio levels" was disabled for the project monitor. Before the last commit, though, I could see the audio levels greyed out. After the fix there was just nothing in that window until I enabled it. Thanks for the quick fix, and your patience.
I just wanted to file a bug for this behaviour in 16.04-af89183 Thanks for the clarification. Just one question: Would it be possible to enable the audio levels by default for the project monitor? I think less people would get confused that way. Cheers!
