Created attachment 131352 [details] Round 1 is the current project file, broken. There are two backup files in there as well, each marked as which one works and doesn't. You will see they were created within a minute of each other. SUMMARY I worked 2 hours on a video last night to find 1.75 of those hours lost due to almost all the project backups having the same issue: Kdenlive crashes on open. It'll start importing clips and then just exit with no error message. Sometimes it will ask if I want to recover, which then it says "Unexpected end of file" when opening a broken backup project. This is happening again and I don't know how, all I did was move the timeline and then CTRL+S as I'm paranoid of losing progress now. I have been checking if the project is broken periodically and I caught it. There were two backups made within a minute of each other, one of which is broken while the other is not. Trying to update to Kdenlive 20.08 to see if this fixes my issue, but the website went down while I was preparing this bug report. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Work on a project for a few minutes 2. Save constantly 3. Discover the saved project is broken, along with several backups OBSERVED RESULT Kdenlive crashes on opening a project EXPECTED RESULT Kdenlive should open the project cleanly :P SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows 10 Pro, ver 1903, build 18362.959 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 GPU: NVidia 1070 RAM: 16 GB DDR4 @ 2400Mhz
