*** If you're not sure this is actually a bug, instead post about it at https://discuss.kde.org If you're reporting a crash, attach a backtrace with debug symbols; see https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** SUMMARY Cannot add a title screen STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Kdenlive, start a new project 2. Open Project. See "Add Title Clip" grayed out 3. Also selecting from templates gives invalid tests OBSERVED RESULT There is a message saying "Cannot open <filepath to title>". This works with 24.05 under Windows 11 but under Slackware Linux does not. EXPECTED RESULT Kdenlive should be able to create and write titles, and put them in projects and render them as part of the video file. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Slackware current 64 bit KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.2.0 Qt Version: 6.7.1 Kernel Version: 6.9.3 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i7-8550U CPU @ 1.80GHz Memory: 15.5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® UHD Graphics 620 Manufacturer: Dell Inc. Product Name: Inspiron 5570 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I have no problems at all with file permissions, and previous Kdenlive (under Plasma 5) versions worked well.
I got a workaround. In Slackware, my Kdenlive depends on mlt (currently using 7.24). Now, stock Slackware mlt is not built against qt6 since they still ship Plasma 5. Therefore after rebuilding mlt with these Cmake parameters added: -DMOD_GLXANIMATE_QT6=ON \ -DMOD_QT6=ON \ instantly solved the issue. So maybe it should be mentioned that mlt would need to be compiled against Qt6? I request therefore to change the bug status as appropriate by the assignee.
Thanks for the feedback. I updated our docs to mention that MLT's Qt major version mus match Kdenlive's one.
