Created attachment 135899 [details] video showing the issue SUMMARY In my current project I can no longer ungroup audio from video. The status bar displays "Cannot perform operation while dragging in timeline" This happens both with mouse-right-click to "Ungroup Clips" and also when pressing the shortcut key I have assigned for it. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Right click on a video with audio 2. Choose Ungroup Clips OBSERVED RESULT Error message displayed EXPECTED RESULT Audio and video ungrouped SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: Ubuntu on i3wm (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: ? KDE Frameworks Version: 5.76.0 Qt Version: 5.14.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Resize item start produces the same error. Both of these functions were working correctly a few minutes ago.
Closing and re-opening Kdenlive solves both issues ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ So the question would be, what placed it in this odd state? In case it's related, I work with a graphics tablet, no mouse.
Can you try using the nightly appimage build please? https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/Kdenlive_Nightly_Appimage_Build/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/
(In reply to farid from comment #3) > Can you try using the nightly appimage build please? > > https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/Kdenlive_Nightly_Appimage_Build/ > lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/ I'm trying it. Currently I can Ungroup and Resize. I'll keep testing and report back. If I launch it from the console I see its very verbose, printing lines when I mouse-out of a clip, or on every frame if I hold the mouse button pressed on top of a clip. I guess things are being debugged.
I do have the same problem. I have edited like 10 videos. first 5 open kdenlive programs at once rendering, and than closing them, opening one after an other 5 new instances of kdenlive with new other videos. To this point everything worked smooth. But when i opened a 6.th instance of kdenlive for editing my last video of the day this bug hits me too. Even after saving my changes to a new safe file, close the 6.th instance and open the project again in a new 6.th instant of kdenlive the but was persistent. Then i safed all other projects, closed all instances of kdenlive and reopend my last project this problem was solved. Thats strange. - Windows 10 - 64Bit Kdenlive 20.12.3 MLT Version 6.25.0 KDE Frameworks 5.79.0 Qt 5.15.2 (built against 5.15.2) The windows windowing system -
@Senas. Kdenlive is not really multi-thread save. Especially the rendering part is not thread-save. Your issue is different than the one from the tread owner.
This is an old bug, caused by a bug in the timeline code where the drag operation was not properly terminated. Closing as this has not been reproduced for a long time
