            Bug ID: 387867
           Summary: Please bring back kdenlive_render.log
           Product: kdenlive
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian unstable
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: User Interface
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
  Target Milestone: ---

First of all, thank you very much for maintaining kdenlive.

It has been a great source of fun.

The main reason I'm writing is to humbly suggest re-implementing
its rendering log.

I'd like to use it to find and fix rendering bugs.

I followed the instructions in kdenlive_render's man 
page to create one by setting the environment variable
named "KDENLIVE_RENDER_LOG".

I set it before before trying to render in
kdenlive

    $ export KDENLIVE_RENDER_LOG=1 ; export LANG=C ;  kdenlive

and before running kdenlive_render with a render
script generated by kdenlive

    #! /bin/sh
    RENDERER="/usr/bin/kdenlive_render"
    MELT="/usr/bin/melt"
    SOURCE_0=<a .mlt script>
    TARGET_0=<a .webm file>
    PARAMETERS_0="-pid:7095 in=0 out=1565 $MELT atsc_720p_2997 avformat -
$SOURCE_0 $TARGET_0 f=webm vcodec=libvpx acodec=vorbis crf=23 vb=0 quality=good
aq=6 max-intra-rate=1000 cpu-used=4 threads=1 real_time=-1"
    KDENLIVE_RENDER_LOG=1
    $RENDERER $PARAMETERS_0

I expected to find a render log file named like

    /tmp/kdenlive_render.log.XXXXXXXX

Unfortunately, I didn't.

I opened Debian bug report 884267.

Patrick Matthäi, who maintains Debian's kdenlive package said he grepped
through the source code, the render log is gone, and I might report a bug here,
at kde.org.

Please bring back kdenlive's render log.

I think it would make debugging easier.

Thanks,
Kingsley
