Bug ID: 427162
Summary: Error opening archived project - incorrect paths are
created for the files
Product: kdenlive
Version: 20.08.0
Platform: Other
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: User Interface
Assignee: j...@kdenlive.org
Reporter: chr...@yahoo.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I am on Windows 10. If I archive a project into another folder, then try to
open that project I get an error: The project file contains missing clips or
files. These referenced files are in fact in the correct location. However,
whoever wrote the code mixed Linux and Windows "paths".
Look at the following referenced file from the error message...
F:/Video Workbench/Electronics/E003 Raspberry Pi Camera Demonstrator/E003 P5
Camera Assembly\videos/MVI_0583_0.MP4
Notice that before the sub-directory videos, there is a \ instead of the
appropriate / for a Windows computer.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create archive on Windows computer with mp4 files (not sure if file type is
important or not.
2. Open resulting project file in the archived directory - you will get error
code.
3. Look at path shown with the associated error code/report.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I flagged this as critical because if someone archives a project and doesn't
check it before deleting the original, they will have lost a LOT of work.
