SUMMARY
Hello, I'm starting with OpenTimelineIO and I was testing how to generate the file structure. After creating a pretty small project, I was able to export it via File - OpenTimelineIO export. However, if I close everything, open a new instance of kdenlive and try File - OpenTimelineIO import, and select the file, in a sequence, kdenlive is asking for a kdenlive project.

Is that a expected behavior? I believe the file.otio should contain all the information and kdenlive should just (recreate) the structure, based on the content. Is that right?


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open kdenlive, and import something
2. File - OpenTimelineIO Export, and save as file.otio
3. Close kdenlive
4. Open a new instance of kdenlive, File - OpenTimelineIO Import
5. Select the file "file.otio"

OBSERVED RESULT
It will request the kdenlive project in a sequence.

EXPECTED RESULT
It should create all the environment based on the content file, and not ask for any project. Let's assume I created the complete structure in a different environment and there is no kdenlive project. How should I be able to import it?
