SUMMARY After upgrading from kdenlive 18 to 19.04 via the PPA, I can no longer add clips to the timeline. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add a wmv file to the project 2. Drag the clip to the timeline OBSERVED RESULT Nothing happens in the UI. On the console it displays: requestClipInsertion "2" 4 8 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 4 11 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 4 13 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 4 15 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 4 16 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 4 17 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 4 18 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 4 18 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 4 18 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 4 18 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 4 18 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 4 17 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 17 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 17 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 17 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 16 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 16 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 16 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 16 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 16 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 16 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 15 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 14 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 14 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 14 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 13 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 13 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 13 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 13 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 12 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false requestClipInsertion "2" 3 12 requestClipCreation "2" // CLIP NOT READY OR NOT COMPATIBLE: PlaylistState::VideoOnly CLIP HAS A+V: false EXPECTED RESULT It adds the clip to the timeline. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Ubuntu 19.04 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: ? KDE Frameworks Version: 5.56.0 Qt Version: 5.12.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Update: It only breaks if I select "switch" when it asks "Switch to clip profile 960x540 29.97fps (960x540, 29.97fps)?" If I click "Cancel", I can add clips to the timeline.
With the new version (19.04 onwards), Kdenlive check if the first clip added in the project bin matches to the project setting. Does your 18.x project contains clips? BTW: don't change the project setting if you have clips on the timeline already. It messes up the whole project.
Upon further investigation, it's because when kdenlive tries to create a new profile based on the source video (960x540), it also for some reason chooses an aspect ratio of 960x540 instead of 16x9, and this breaks ffmpeg.
Could you upload here a screenshot of this generated project profile with aspect ratio of 960x540. I assume uploading this clip here for testing is difficult because upload it's limited to 4MB. BTW: Do you work with the AppImage? If not please try with the current Kdenlive AppImage version 19.08.0a to see if there are any packaging issues https://files.kde.org/kdenlive/release/

Just tried the appimage. Still broken :/
Created attachment 122355 [details] Test-broken-repaired This seems to be the point/comma issue: https://invent.kde.org/kde/kdenlive/issues/78. I changed to comma and I could open the file. Attached you'll find the updated Kdenlive file which works with comma as decimal separator.
