Bug ID: 405784
Summary: Cannot reopen project when videos are in same folder
as project.
Product: kdenlive
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: User Interface
Assignee: j...@kdenlive.org
Reporter: mich...@moekadu.de
Target Milestone: ---
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open kdenlive, import a video
2. Save the project in exactly the same folder as where the video is
3. Close kdenlive.
4. Reopen kdenlive and load the project.
OBSERVED RESULT
The videos are not loaded correctly (invalid video)
EXPECTED RESULT
Videos should be correctly loaded
WHAT I FOUND OUT SO FAR:
It appears that when saving the project in the same folder as the video,
kdenlive will not use the absolute path of the video but the relative path.
Then it fails finding these videos with relative paths when reopening the
project.
I tested this on Ubuntu 18.10 and Fedora 29 with the AppImage packages (stable
and refactoring), as well as with the native Ubuntu package. Result is always
the same.
As soon, as I store the project in another folder as where the videos are,
everything is fine (project-file uses now absolute paths).
