ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 emohr 2022-01-09 16:40:59 UTC
Thank you for reporting. Kdenlive on Mac runs only on MacOS 11 and 12 on Intel. It seems a craft build issue: https://invent.kde.org/multimedia/kdenlive/-/issues/993 .
Comment 2 Jean-Baptiste Mardelle 2022-04-06 10:07:05 UTC
The startup crash on Mac M1 is related to libgavl. The following steps allow to run Kdenlive on a Mac M1 with OS 12.3.1:
Go to the Applications Folder. Right click on Kdenlive (Ctrl+click), select "Show package content".

This shows the content package. Go to :
Contents > Framework

Delete the 2 files:
libgavl.dylib
libgavl.2.dylib

Close the Finder window, now Kdenlive starts correctly

Comment 4 Garth Fletcher 2022-04-11 14:54:49 UTC
Deleting the 2 files:
libgavl.dylib
libgavl.2.dylib
solved the startup crash under Mac OS X 10.13.6
Comment 5 emohr 2022-04-12 17:59:52 UTC
@Garth Fletcher: Could you test with daily master 1080? It should start without deleting the 2 files: libgavl.dylib, libgavl.2.dylib. Can you confirm?
Comment 6 Garth Fletcher 2022-04-13 04:14:07 UTC
how do I download the daily master?

I downloaded kdenlive-master-1080-macos-64-clang.dmg
and installed it.

When started it displays the "splash screen" for several seconds, then 
crashes.

I've appended the crash report

Cordially,

I started with 1080 because that was the version you suggested in your 
earlier email.

Next I downloaded kdenlive-master-1081-macos-64-clang.dmg
which your last email suggested, and installed it.

Same result except is asked if I wanted to "reset the configuration file"
Whether I answered Yes or No, it still crashed shortly thereafter.

see appended crash report

Cordially,

Thank you for the test. It doesn't start on M1 either. Investigation is ongoing.
Comment 11 emohr 2022-04-18 16:37:55 UTC
@Garth Fletcher: Could you test with daily master No.1085 (or newer)? Hopefully it should start now without deleting the 2 files: libgavl.dylib, libgavl.2.dylib. Download the daily build from here: https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/Kdenlive_Nightly_macos/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/

Opens and runs, no crash - well done!

Environment is:
   Mac mini (2012)
   OS X 10.13.6

Thank you,

Kdenlive 22.04 runs on M1 in Intel mode (Rosetta) and on older MacOS down to 10.13.6 (High Sierra).
