I have a theory that your colons might be confusing the loader. The loader
supports a feature were the service can be specified as part of the argument
with a colon delimiter:
https://github.com/mltframework/mlt/blob/master/src/modules/core/producer_loader.c#L45
Perhaps your colon is getting picked up by the loader and making it split the
path thinking that the first half is the service that should be used. If this
is the case, then colons in the path name are just not going to be supported.

Um.. I can't figure out the pattern.
other than: give carl file names with colons and watch carl get mad.
If I remove the colon, everything works fine.

Hmm.. doing testing with just a path to the media file, so no mlt file. maybe
a different issue. I'll try a simple mlt file next.

It seems I can now use relitive paths in a .mlt file.
<property name="resource">../dv/Stowe_Hall/2015-11-14/video swang

Is this expected to work?
And should it work with odd chars in the name, like colons?
some work, this does not:
(veyepar)juser@cnt1:~$ melt
Videos/veyepar/nodevember/nodevember15/custom/Building_simple_Nodejs_microservices_using_Hapi_and_Redis.mlt
-consumer xml
...
[producer_xml] failed to load producer "../dv/Stowe_Hall/2015-11-14/video swang

but if I cd to the dir

(veyepar)juser@cnt1:~/Videos/veyepar/nodevember/nodevember15/custom$ melt

same with a sibling dir:
