To all:

This line from your output indicates that *system* MLT library is used:

/usr/lib/libmlt.so.0.2.2



This version is probably incompatible (too old) for Kdenlive SVN, you need ffmpeg and mlt SVN verson s well.

If you use kdenlive_builder all should be in ~/build/kdenlive directory, all libs and executables all linked together.

Check if you really launch the right Kdenlive executable from the right directory.

Use ldd tool to discover library links.

How to use ldd? check this forum I have already written how-to.

after compiling from svn (compiled ffmpeg, mlt, mlt++ and kdenlive)..compilation reported no errors. but kdenlive crashes on launch with this:

what does this suggest..any clues please?

The Kdenlive development version requires MLT 0.2.5 or svn. In your error messages, Kdenlive seems to be linked against MLT 0.2.3:

#11 0xb6c169c2 in Mlt::Consumer::start () from /usr/lib/libmlt++.so.0.2.3

I don't know how you installed your MLT and MLT++, but you probably have several versions installed. If you previously installed from a package, you should uninstall it.

Otherwise, I would recommand that you do the following:

go to /usr/lib and delete all mlt libraries ( rm libmlt* )

then go to /usr/include and delete folders mlt and mlt++

Finally in /usr/share, remove folder mlt

After that, recompile and reinstall your mlt and mlt++, make clean in kdenlive and recompile it.

regards

thank you.

i did as advised..removed all previous mlt and mlt++.

then started afresh to build from svn.

mlt built correctly and is in as /usr/local/lib/libmlt.so.0.2.5

had difficulty building mlt++, had to edit the congig.make file.

kdenlive got built and strangely installed in /bin.. ( a result my struggle and tinkering with directories perhaps)

Launching it, it crashed with this report

Seem so close to getting it....pl suggest..thanks for you help....

I think the best is to delete all Kdenlive related files and reinstall in a standard location.

When installing, Kdenlive does copy 2 binaries: kdenlive and kdenlive_renderer in $PREFIX/bin and several important config & effects files in $PREFIX/share/apps/kdenlive/

If you previously installed Kdenlive in another place there might be conflicts. Please check if you have a kdenlive folder in /usr/share/apps, /usr/local/share/apps and $HOME/.kde/share/apps and remove all of them. Same for kdenlive binaries in /usr/bin, /usr/local/bin

Then, delete your kdenlive files in /bin and all files in /share/apps/kdenlive.

Finally, try installing in a standard location, like /usr/local. Before recompiling Kdenlive, delete the file CMakeCache.txt, then:

cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local .

make

sudo make install

That should install in /usr/local.

Good luck.

i did a fresh compile and this seems to be the problem..

Failed to load plugin: /usr/local/lib/libavformat.so.52: undefined symbol: av_strlcatf

i have ffmpeg version from svn.

I think i will just wait for the 0.6 version of kdenlive for ubuntu Gutsy ..Installing from svn is full of pitfalls. For now 0.5 is fine... Thanks for the efforts .. kdenlive is the best video editor for linux...

Success at last!!

The script version by JM worked for me. see this thread for the pitfalls i went thru...before getting it right..:-)
