Public bug reported: When I try to create a new project or save-as the blank project that opens by default, or export the video, Openshot locks up. My HDD drive light comes on and the program sits there. Cancel button does not work.
I am unsure if this is related but I also cannot preview anything. I can add images or video-clips or audio clips to timelines but when I click on the play button in the preview window the only thing that changes is that "Video Preview" will change to "Video Preview Paused" I have attached the output when run from a terminal. I installed openshot on Ubuntu 12.04 from the ppa:openshot.developers/ppa I have also run apt-get build-dep openshot because I was going to compile it from source until I read the info here: http://www.openshot.org/download/ After reading this I simply installed it from the ppa as instructed. I can watch video's correctly using the commands: $ fmpeg video.avi and $ melt video.avi The terminal output states: ------------------------- ERROR 1 ------------------------------ Failed to import 'from openshot import main' Error Message: cannot import name main ---------------------------------------------------------------- This looks like it might be the issue to me, but I do not know how to fix it.
