[Bug 913899] [NEW] No formats or codecs were found

 

Public bug reported:

Opening openshot, I get the message: "Error! No formats or codecs were found.  Please check the OpenShot preferences and configure the 'melt' command name." Anyway, the app is able to open and play the saved project, but is unable to export it as video. 
I tried several suggestions from openshot users forum previously reported (http://openshotusers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=865, http://openshotusers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=350), but none solved the problem.
I am running LMDE (gnome) completely updated (openshot 1.3.1-1, melt 1:0.7.4-0.1, installation method: synaptic).
Any suggestion? I'm afraid there is not a simple solution and I will have to repeat the project with another tool, as the deadline for my academic work is coming soon.
Thank you very much for your help.
