I don't think it's fair to say that OpenShot doesn't need a fix. For the casual user, with the stock version of ffmpeg, OpenShot just crashes, woth no indication of what the problem is. This is a HUGE usability issue, that should be dealt within OpenShot somehow. Here's a couple of suggestions:
1. disable HD endoding if the correct libraries are not present. Clearly indicate that for HD to work, medibuntu needs to be used. 2. Instead of just closing the program, at least a warning of the problem of the solution. Just the way it is now show poor QA, in my modest opinion. -- OpenShot crashes when trying to encode with libfaac https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/505368 You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenShot Developers, which is subscribed to OpenShot Video Editor.
