Perhaps it is related to this version. I am editing a multitrack project and changing the gains on two different audio tracks. I make the changes, render the project, open another project (validating the save this project). Then later on when I re-open the project I find that the settings have returned to what they were before I made the most recent changes. The project opens all its clips and displays the timeline normally. This is a very serious problem. I have to constantly recheck quite a few project settings before I render each project to make sure they have not reverted to previous levels. Could it be related to some corruption in the project file?
This behaviour has been happening over the last few days with several reboots of the computer happening in between.
Could you please give us a bit more details: - where do you adjust the gain ? In the audio mixer, in an effect placed on the track ? - Are you using multiple sequences (timeline tabs) in your project ?
Created attachment 180880 [details] attachment-263869-0.html Hi Jean-Baptists, I have been adjusting the gain in the audio mixer. I also have the gain plugin running on one segment in a track which doesn't seem to be retaining the changes either. This has been happening with more than one project so it indicates that it is not just one corrupt project file. I have been using Kdenlive for several years on Kde Neon without this happening so I'm thinking it is a bug recently introduced or something related to my system which is malfunctioning. I can see that the audio levels in the mixer and the gain plugin revert to previous levels after a project is saved and then reopened. I am just using one timeline with 4 audio tracks and 3 video tracks. The rendering is only using 2 video tracks and 2 audio tracks.

Created attachment 180881 [details] attachment-264426-0.html Just now I saw that I had two instances of Kdenlive running at the same time. I'm going to re-test to be sure that that was not the problem.

Created attachment 180882 [details] attachment-264960-0.html No, it was not related to having two instances running at the same time.

I cannot reproduce the issue, so might be related to something specific to your projects. Could you share with me one of the project files (just the .kdenlive file) ?
Created attachment 180908 [details] Amsiggel Darija chapter 01.kdenlive Attached is one of the project files.

Ok, I think I found the problem. Adjusting the audio mixer volume with the slider works. However if adjusting through the numeric field below the slider, level is not correctly saved. Will work on a fix.

Created attachment 180946 [details] attachment-1432390-0.html Thanks Jean-Baptiste. I had found that the slider worked, but it seemed not all the time. The last time I tried using the slider instead of typing the dB in it was not saved properly. Let me know if you want me to check that point again and confirm this. Glad you're looking into this.

I am unable to reproduce, so if you find a reliable way to reproduce the bug, that would help, thanks
Created attachment 181240 [details] attachment-1139617-0.html Hi Jean-Baptistse, I uninstalled the native deb 25.04.0 and installed the flatpak 25.04.1. The bug disappeared. -- Andrew On 06/05/2025 08:36, Jean-Baptiste Mardelle wrote: > https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=503662 > > --- Comment #11 from Jean-Baptiste Mardelle<jb@kdenlive.org> --- > I am unable to reproduce, so if you find a reliable way to reproduce the bug, > that would help, thanks >
