Do you have any comprehension as to how utterly useless the information
provided regarding this fix is to someone who is not a tech genius? What
is it with Linux users that you all are so rude as too assume we can
read your minds, and insert all of the information we need to insert
that you don't provide?

I type in to, i guess, the terminal, exactly what you say, and guess
what? NOTHING HAPPENS.

I've been using open shot for over a year, not too many problems, and
now, for unknown reasons, it won't deal with AVI files. It just keeps on
playing the file, won't stop, won't let me edit it.

Consider that the people who use this software are sometimes pretty
clueless and new as to how to use Linux. So your advice, to someone
who's new, is, frankly, frustrating crap.

For example, WTF is the latest Trunk version? WTF is a trunk version? Is
this something to do with elephants? Maybe I need to look in the trunk
of my car, perhaps, for the solution?

I need to check the 'seekable function.' WTF is the seekable function?
How am I supposed to understand what this is? Maybe I should ask the
elephant to see if the answer has been shoved up his trunk?

when i type in    $ ffplay 'MyVideo.mp4', is that all I should type in ?
Nothing happens. Should I type in 'MyVideo.mp4 instead of the actual
file I want to use? I don't know. What is supposed to happen when I type
this in? You don't say, you just assume I can read your mind, and gleam
all the information you don't provide through telepathy or something. I
don't know.

This is such a common phenomenon with Linux, that users who know their
stuff routinely post fix information that is arrogant, and totally
useless to someone who hasn't got a phd in Linux.

Come on, have a clue.

Title:
  Video Preview keeps going even after clicking Pause

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 11.10, Upgraded from 11.04, Openshot 1.4
  I'm using MTS files.  When I click the play button on Video Preview for editing, it's a little choppy, and when I click the button again to pause, the preview keeps going (although smoother and without sound).  When I try to move the start position and play again, the preview just continues on without resetting (even if I remove the file from the project).
