I will try, maybe I can use a placeholder clip instead of the original one
which I'm not sharing due to privacy concerns.

Somehow this bug has persisted through the backup files and through copies I
had made of the original .kdenlive file.

On further inspection, the bug seems to be during the loading procedure, as in
when kdenlive is opening the file. I also noticed a little "This project was
modified by kdenlive" when it's opening.

I dragged and dropped it into the main sequence, then I moved it to another
one. The .kdenlive is imported in full and uses clips some of the same source
files as my main project (the source file is corrupted in all sequences in the
main project).

I don't know how to explain the project bin, so I'll just add an attachment as
"Weird project bin".

All the clips of that _____ to MK.mp4 file have been replaced with that clip at
the top. The other ones are just useless and are all different speeds of the
same clip.

This makes sense on paper since the source .kdenlive has the same clip tens of
times with different speeds, crops, etc. The only one that's actually used in
the project is a ~900% speed version of the source clip which is used in a
sequence in the imported .kdenlive. It has no audio, which is reflected when
trying to add this weird clip to the project, but not reflected in the clips
that got replaced with this weird one as they all have audio and the same
speed. That sequence was copied about 8 times in succession.

My guess is that importing the .kdenlive causes all clips to be pasted into the
new project in a "Pasted clips" folder and that causes some conflict with the
source files that already exist.

The clips in the timeline seem to be pulling data from the original clip while
thinking they are this weird phantom clip.

I should note the rendering seems to be unaffected and so does playback in the
editor.

I will try to recreate this in new .kdenlive files.
