I can confirm that the openshot-qt package in jammy-proposed has fixed the bug for me.
Test done: 1. Install openshot-qt on a jammy installation. 2. execute "openshot-qt" from a terminal and that fails to start with a traceback. 3. Add jammy-proposed to apt sources 4. Update openshot-qt from jammy-proposed. 5. execute the command again and openshot-qt window with the tutorial is displayed. 6. imported 3 images from File -> Import Files 7. Select all the images, right click and click on "Add to timeline" 8. Click on the play button on the right pane, and the added pictues will play like a slideshow. Test result: the errors with openshot-qt has been fixed.

Detailed test: * Import few videos or images * right click on the thumbnail * Click on "Add to timeline" * the image or the video should now be added to the timeline * add few such images and videos * Try playing the timeline [ Where problems could occur ] The problem was caused because float is used as some of the arguments where int is now expected. There can be some more such parts in the code which I might have missed during my testing. And if any such code is executed with a float argument then the application might again crash. [ Other Info ] * As mentioned in the patch, part of the patch is from upstream. Similar changes have been done in few more places which I found during testing.
