Do you understand the reason for the change? If you have an xml file that contained simply a producer element under the root, then it would overwrite the producer's resource property with the filename of the xml file, which causes problems for the producer or for re-serialization! > In Kdenlive, we sometimes use the "resource" property of a clip to create a > duplicate of the producer or for other reasons. > > Since the mentioned commit, the "resource" property of an xml playlist is not > set anymore (it defaults to "<playlist>"), and it seems it is not possible > anymore to get the location of the playlist file. > > What do you think about it?

Then, the resource attribute belongs on the root element and not overwriting some other object's resource property. I will see how to make that change. > Let me know if you agree or if I should workaround the issue in Kdenlive. > > regards > jb > -- +-DRD-+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
