Description Corey bruce 2018-11-19 02:39:38 UTC
Setting MLT processing threads higher than 1 messes up the timeline stopping you from scrubbing through the timeline/


EXPECTED RESULT

being able to set my MLT processing threads to the amount of threads I have and be able to actually scrub through my timeline,this bug makes it almost impossible to edit a video.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Kdenlive 18.08.2
Xubuntu 18.04 LTS 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: N/A using XFCE
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.44.0
Qt Version: Qt 5.9.5

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Every time this happens I have to reset it to 1 just to be able to edit and when I want to render I need to change it so I have better render speeds/performance..
Kdenlive with MLT set to 1 thread (working)

confirmed. Dev working on an improvement for the refactoring version.

Here some settings:
- render TIME 2min42 sec (off Parallel, threads:3)
- render TIME 2min45 SEC (on parallel,thread:3)
- render TIME 7min3 sec (on parallel, thread:1)
- render TIME 2min2sec (on parallel,thread:0)

Max threads should be number of cores - 1

Thanks for your report, this feature has been very buggy and has been removed for the last releases.
