Description Fernando M. Muniz 2024-08-05 03:06:42 UTC
I believe it's a the video codec string of text.
Comment 1 Fernando M. Muniz 2024-08-05 03:49:46 UTC
Will paste the string here next time that happens. Until then I'm changing the status into "NEEDSINFO".

Well it is not a random string, it is the data required for Kdenlive to process a copy/paste operation, and will show up in the clipboard after you do a copy operation in Kdenlive. What is your point regarding this?

So if the user doesn't have a Clipboard history, that string will overwrite their latest text/image copied?
Can't a warning for this be added?

Instead of copying the image/clip from the timeline, Kdenlive copies (or generates?) that string. Like any other copy operation, the content of the clipboard is overwritten by the last copy action. So this works as designed and expected.
