I had the same problem and sdl_preview fixed it. ( Ubuntu 12.04, Openshot 1.4.3).
Would it be better to have sdl_preview as the default ? It took me about a month to find out why it kept randomly crashing. It's much better now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenShot Bugs, which is subscribed to OpenShot Video Editor. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/648226 Title: almost 80% cpu usage all the time Status in OpenShot Video Editor: Invalid Bug description: I've just upgraded to 1.2.2 and just launching the application, I see on "top" openshot using from 50% to 80% doing nothing.
