Bug ID: 480536
Summary: Check whether all necessary objects are available
before rendering a project.
Classification: Applications
Product: kdenlive
Version: unspecified
Platform: unspecified
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: User Interface
Assignee: j...@kdenlive.org
Reporter: w...@arcor.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
If I am working on a large project for a long time (FullHD, 886 clips), but do
not close kdenlive and the computer is only switched off using hibernate
(suspend to disk), then it is difficult to notice, if a used image is renamed
in the file system.
This applies in particular when images, videos, titles, sounds, music,
subtitles are distributed in folders in the project content.
A renamed image is still displayed in the timeline. I assume in such a case the
proxy object is displayed.
It is only informed of missing objects when kdenlive loads the project.
(Importing a project with 886 clips takes 2 minutes on my PC, AMD Ryzen 5 3600,
32GB Ram, Disk: SSD)
In the rendered video, the image was displayed as INVALIDE, but you only notice
this when the movie is viewed.
Rendering of the 1:45 hour long project takes 1.5 hours 1920x1080, NVENC H264
ABR.
If such a check would take a long time, then it could be switched on/off in the
project settings.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a longer project using movies and images which will need proxy clips.
Do NOT restart kdenlive during edit the project.
2. Rename a image in the filesystem which are used in the timeline
3. render the project
OBSERVED RESULT
No info from kdenlive about the missing image. Instead of the (missing) image
the text "INVALIDE" is displayed in the movie.
EXPECTED RESULT
Before start to render a project kdenlive should inform the user that objects
are missing.
