Public bug reported:
Beginning with the Jan 10 updates to Ubuntu Precise, Kdenlive rendering
crashes almost instantly on and only on my AMF FX-8150 "bulldozer"
machine. After a VERY short "waiitng," I get the "rendering crashed,
video will probably be corrupted" message and rendering stops, the same
as if I had run "killall melt."
Rolling back kdenlive, melt, mlt, or ffmpeg or any combination of them
to older versions does NOT stop the problem, and I have been unable to
find the offending package that introduced the problem, for which
kdenlive or maybe mlt needs to be rebuilt. There were a lot of KDE
updates that day, but when I copied and older snapshot of Precise that
worked, and reran the updates with the KDE updates pinned, the render
crashed recurred anyway, so I don't think the KDE changes were
responsible.
Both the 0.8.2 version of Kdenlive in the Ubuntu precise repos and the 0.8.3
version in the Sunab PPA
(kdenlive_0.8.3+git20120105.9dea7a4b-0ubuntu0~sunab~oneiric1_amd64.deb) are
affected exactly the same way
when running from an SSD boot drive on my AMD FX 8150 "bulldozer" machine. They
do not crash when running on Phenom II x4 or even Intel Atom, just on AMD
"bulldozer." I was even able to plug the laptop's hard drive (a 160 MB 5400RPM
magnetic drive) into the AMD machine and boot from it, then render OK from
kdenlive, but when I then copied that filesystem onto the SSD, and booted from
that, the crashes on render returned.
I will upload a traceback copy when I get home, but libmlt (something)
is the last thing showing near the end, along with a "stack" reference
within a few lines of it.
For now, I am using a backup partition with a Dec 27 snapshot of Precise
and the PPA version of Ubuntu for video work on the "buldozer" machine,
until this is fixed.
