Corrupted GUI

Sat Jun 22, 2019 8:35 pm
When testing Kdenlive on a Windows laptop with the latest graphics drivers, the GUI displays correctly for less than a second and then shows

The latest version is being used. I have already tried resetting the settings. This seemed to happen sometime during 19.x. I haven't been able to trace down the problem version.

Confirmed. It seems an Intel graphics 550 issue only . You are on Windows? Which graphic card do you have?

It's an older Windows laptop with Intel Graphics 520. Is there a workaround for this issue? Install older graphics drivers?

Intel graphic driver x.6890 and x.6912 seems it interferes with dbus-daemon.exe.

Installing Intel graphic driver x.6709 solves the issue. https://downloadcenter.intel.com/downlo ... CH-Drivers.

Any other current workarounds besides downgrading the drivers? I guess just wait until a compatible driver update is released?

Unfortunately, no. Driver x.6709 from this April is compatible with all Win10 versions up to 19.03. I tested x.6709 successfully on my laptop. As you see here https://drivers.softpedia.com/blog/inte ... 6473.shtml the x.6912 update has problems with other software as well. In Kdenlive it seems x.6890 and x.6912 interferes with Dbus-daemon which handle the data flow to the screen. Dbus-daemon is not maintained from Kdenlive. You can wait on an updated Intel driver.

I would like to confirm that this issue seems to be mostly fixed. When I use the latest daily build of Kdenlive on Windows 10 with the latest Intel graphics drivers, I still get see a corrupted GUI after opening Kdenlive. The only way to resolve this is to choose Settings > OpenGL Backend > OpenGLES from the menu. I can't see the menu when the GUI is corrupt but I can click where the menu should be. A quick test of Kdenlive after doing this seems fixed.

I have a user experiencing problems with KDEnlive on Windows 10 using an intel graphics card. I have tried doing everything listed in this post and am still getting the corrupted GUI. I had this same problem a few weeks ago with this same user and resolved it by re-installing KDEnlive. I tried the same process this go round and it failed. I tried updating the Intel drivers to the latest supported and tried re-installing KDEnlive with the latest release and still get the same problem.

This laptop happens to be an HP Probook 450 G5. HP doesn't have the latest bleeding edge version of intel drivers available. Intel suggests installing HP's custom drivers and not installing Intel's latest driver.

We really like the KDEnlive platform. Please let me know any suggestions.

I can upload images if need be. Thanks!


Cheers,

Joe

To anyone seeing this problem, I was able to work around it by opening <UserFolder>\AppData\Local\kdenliverc, removing the [misc] section, saving, and then restarting kdenlive.

Hi, It's the same problems for me on a Dell Latitude 5500 with an Intel 620. It seems that if the [misc] section is there even if it does not contain any video-related settings it will corrupt the GUI. I had selected "Bypass Codec Verification" which caused [misc] to get created with "bypasscodeccheck=true" and that was enough to break the GUI. If [misc] exists and is totally empty then there is no problem, just the same as if [misc] doesn't exist.
