[Bug 458099] Re: Cannot move project files

 

I tried Jonathan's solution (#3), and it works. The downside is that if
you have a project with a lot of files, it is cumbersome to change their
properties one file at a time.

To circumvent the "one file at a time" problem, I tried to edit the osp
file with various editors, but nothing worked so far. Either the editor
can't open the osp file, or it can but once the file is modified and
saved, OpenShot can't open it (even with a binary file editor such as
GHex).

There should be a way to remedy this. It is not exceptional to move
files, especially when you work on a long project and will eventually
change your files organization, or will transport your project on
another computer. And it precisely then that the "one file at a time"
properties modification is cumbersome, since the project has likely many
files.

Title:
  Cannot move project files

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I'm trying to move my input files for a project from one location to
  another, so I right-click on the input file, select properties, paste
  new path and press Apply - and nothing happens.

  I'd expect that it would save the new location and close, or report an
  error graphically if I did something wrong. There is nothing reported
  in the terminal either.

  New path is "/home/vadi/Videos/OpenShot Projects/park-video-
  oct/title.png"
