Kdenlive 0.75 freezing when i render a project. I have rendering in different settings and rendering to different format (ex MPEG-4), after rending a while it allway? freezing the computor and even the system clock stand still. When it freezing it starts with the screen getting the color gray, but not the rending window (the 32% indicator stands still, but at different % each time i try). Then starts the HD to work as a maniac for a couple of hours. After that the HD doesent show any indication to work and the computer has freezing and i cant do anything with computer... so i force a restart of the computer. When i load the project into Kdenlive the percent of project loading stops at 67% and the screen getting gray for a couple of seconds. After that it open the project... i can se the whole projekt an view it in playback. But when i render, it always crash..

My video Cam is record in HD 720p, with .mov filename
This is my video format: Dimension: 1280 x 720, Kodec H.264/AVC, 30 fps
This is my sound format: Kodek: MPEG-4, Stereo

Kdenlive was fully function in version kdenlive 0.73 (with files from my cam) after that i have alot of trouble when i shall render a project in Kdenlive.. i really like this program, so can someone help me with this!?

Try to follow the guidelines and publish some footage somewhere, register your camcorder in the database, so that we can reproduce the bug.

If rendering crashes, make sure you don't have two versions of MLT installed at the same time. Also, the builder wizard (/usr/local) interferes with packages (/usr). So make sure you removed your old mlt installation.

jmpoure: Please let me know how you get the builder to mess with /usr/local - unless you explicitely ask it too? Noone else have reported this as an issue, and it really should never install anything into /usr/local.

Thanks.

....Now Kdenlive 0.7.5 works fine!! i have re-installed Ubuntu so i got a "clean" system, run all updates to ubuntu and after that installed Kdenlive. i don know what was wrong before, but now it works fine!! I can say this... ...i spent many of hours to find whats was wrong first, but re-install the system and install Kdenlive was the fastes way to get it work!! :-) ...but thanks anyway for the support!! :-)

Its sad you had to do that.

The only real excuse is that Kdenlive is still very much in flux, and heavily depends on very recent versions of a number of packages, including mlt and ffmpeg. Unfortunately it appears that it still is easy to get stuff mixed up, such that kdenlive loads a wrong version of a package.

Eventually the packaing system will stabilize.
