Are you using the Unity interface in 11.04? You might have better luck
using the classic mode - we have never done any significant testing
using the Unity interface.

It's obviously difficult to diagnose what specific problems you are
having, especially as you say it is random. What kind of source files
are you using? Do they play/seek ok if you follow the instructions found
at the link below?

If you run openshot from the terminal then you might see some specific
errors that are causing the crashes.

Title:
  Program freezes and crashes at random

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  New

Bug description:
  My students have been using OpenShot on their Linux-based laptops to
  complete a movie for class.  Each group reported significant problems
  with the program crashing and/or freezing at random while trying to
  edit work and work not explicitly save is lost.  We are working on
  Ubuntu 11.04.  One student's program loses the read marker line in the
  tracks when he zooms in beyond two-minute increments.  Overall, my
  students are now turned off by opensource software and want to work on
  Macs and use iMovie.  Please help me restore faith in opensource.  I
  cannot find a reliable movie-making/movie-editing program for Linux!
