[Bug 946700] [NEW] OpenShot Encode video fails, but libraries installed

 

Public bug reported:

I am a new OpenShot user on an eeePC 1000 running Ubuntu:
Linux bielzebobb-laptop 2.6.32-38-generic #83-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jan 4 11:13:04 UTC 2012 i686 GNU/Linux

I import some video clips to a new project, lay them on the timeline,
and attempt to export the video.

I select web, and various options, but by the time I hit the last one,
"quality", I get an error message:

[BEGIN ERROR]
The following formats/codecs are missing from your system:

libx264
libmp3lame

You will not be able to use the selected export profile.  You will need to install the missing formats/codecs or choose a different export profile.
[END ERROR]

However, these libraries appear to be installed, at least  to the best
knowledge of the provided package manager. apt-get didn't find these
packages by name.

Moreover, I can't get rid of the export window (cancel doesn't work). --
Oh, the error window had come up again and was hidden.

This happens on a freshly rebooted system with only the OpenShot
application open.
