Bug ID: 496639
Summary: Effect "Freeze" together with "subtitle" causes loss
of contrast
Classification: Applications
Product: kdenlive
Version: 24.08.3
Platform: Ubuntu
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Video Effects & Transitions
Assignee: j...@kdenlive.org
Reporter: every-...@outlook.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
adding the "Freeze" effect to freeze a frame in combination with adding a
subtitle causes the video to become greyish - loss of contrast, for the
duration of the freeze frame.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select a short clip and apply the "Freeze" effect. Works as it should.
2. Add a subtitle track, the project monitor window looses contrast.
Performing the subtitle before adding the "freeze" effect also has the
same issue.
The loss of contrast also appears in the rendered output.
3. I even tried adding the "freeze" effect without the subtitle, then adding
the edited sequence to a new sequence with just the subtitle, but the problem
still exists.
OBSERVED RESULT
When the "freeze" effect is used in combination with a subtitle track the video
for the duration of the freeze has lower contrast.
EXPECTED RESULT
Adding a subtitle track should not change the contrast of output.
