Not every TS does that.
Can you please make ~20 seconds available by reducing the file size using 'dd' with a block size of 188? You can use 'ffmpeg -i the.ts' to get the data rate. Then, to get the number of blocks to copy, convert bitrate to bytes by dividing by 8, multiplying by 1024 for kilo, multiply by 20 seconds, and divide by 188. ffmpeg -i your result should show you if you are correct. Otherwise, you can also just divide the original size by some factor, like say 90 to get ~30 seconds. Finally, attach it to a bug at kdenlive.org/mantis. > BTW, TS file extensions are not recognized by the clip open dialog: they > don't show in the list, and I have to enter their name manually. Maybe > that's somehow related, i.e., kdenlive is not supposed to support TS files? TS is supported, but only as good as FFmpeg does, which is decent, but not great. Usually, it does not seek well, never had a duration issue yet. Yes, last night I noticed that .ts was not support in the file dialog either. To interested readers, .m2t is TS for HDV; .mts is TS for AVCHD, but .ts is the more generic form. -- +-DRD-+
