Public bug reported:

Architecture (64 bits or 32 bits) : 64 bits
Operating System & version : Ubuntu 14.04
Installation Method : distro package
Version of Openshot installed : 1.4.3
BZR Revision used (if any) : N/A
MLT/melt version : ?
FFmpeg (i.e.libavcodec) version : from distro package (54?)
FFmpeg installation : from distro package

OpenShot fails to import assets with a question mark in the file name,
saying something like “OpenShot doesn’t support this file format” (my
translation).

In my particular case, I was creating a new title which had a question
mark in its name. When finishing the title creation dialog, the title
didn’t show up anywhere. This was confusing. I found the created SVG
file in my file manager and tried to import it manually which led to the
error message above. That was confusing again. When I removed the
question mark from the file name, the SVG file could be imported without
any problems as expected.
