[Bug 1067328] [NEW] previewing effect of video edits causes Openshot + Desktop to freeze

 

Public bug reported:

Openshot 1.4.3 installed via PPA under Ubuntu 11.10 as per guide on
Openshot website.

Initial messages on start-up:

charlie@fiona-ubuLenovo-3000-G530:~$ openshot ./Pictures/100CASIO/CIMG1113.AVI &[1] 5498
charlie@fiona-ubuLenovo-3000-G530:~$ 
------------------------- ERROR 1 ------------------------------
Failed to import 'from openshot import main'
Error Message: cannot import name main

Process no longer exists: 5295.  Creating new pid lock file.
Adding files to the watch queue:
/home/charlie/Pictures/100CASIO/CIMG1113.AVI

Detecting formats, codecs, and filters...
:
:
etc... 

application seems to load / run.

Use the Resize tool to shorten the AVI file loaded above (size is approx
13MBytes, generated by a Casio ZX-60 camera); resizing is successful and
modified AVI file can be saved as mp4, replayed with eg Movie.

BUT: if I use the 'preview' button to check result of the re-size before
saving/exporting the video file, the Openshot GUI locks up.

Moving mouse to left of screen to 'activate' 'Dash' launcher has no
effect; Alt-Tab has no effect (there are other apps running).

Ctrl-Alt-F2 DOES bring up a console where root can login;
Python/Openshot are NOT taking an excessive amount of CPU (virtually
none..).

kill -9 'pid of Openshot' restores normal system function.
