Bug ID: 368836 Summary: git master:2016-09-15: Possible data loss when applying clip job to multiple clips Product: kdenlive Version: unspecified Platform: Compiled Sources OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: critical Priority: NOR Component: User Interface Assignee: j...@kdenlive.org Reporter: evert.vors...@yandex.com So, I have this bunch of clips that I want to slow down by exactly the same amount. I highlight all the clips I want to slow down, right-click and select the speed clip job. This method worked fine for adding proxies of the .mlt files I made before, so why not? Anyways, a dialog pops up, saying that the intended output files exist, and as I had been creating .mlt files for some of the clips I did not read the dialog all that closely, and I just blindly clicked "overwrite". After several dialogs pops up, I realize I did not make that many .mlt files, and re-read the dialog that pops up. Apparently, rather than making an .mlt file as output, the clip job was overwriting the original clips. This does not happen when just one clip is selected. So, my own boneheadedness caused me some data loss, but I had the source files backed up anyways, so not too bad. However, the clip job should be making .mlt files and not be trying to overwrite the originals in all cases. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Select multiple clips in project bin 2.Right click and select clip jobs and "duplicate and change speed" 3.Set the desired speed. 4. Dialog pops up, saying that the files already exist Actual Results: By selecting multiple clip jobs the default output is not an .mlt file anymore, but the source file. If clicking overwrite on the dialog the original file is overwritten by a .mlt file that points to itself. Expected Results: Multiple .mlt files to be created with the effect applied inside. It's a bit of a corner case, but should be an easy fix. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
