Title:
  openshot 1.4.3-1.1 ladspa plugins keep vanishing in 64 bit Trusty

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Openshot often refuses to start from the launcher, i.e. the launcher
  icon appears to be dead. Ubuntu 14.04 is running in VirtualBox under
  Windows 8.1.

  The following fix from Kirk Schnable temporarily fixes the problem:

  OpenShot version 1.4.0, Python 2.7.3, on Xubuntu 12.04, all updates
  are installed. ... No LADSPA plugins were found! Check your
  LADSPA_PATH environment variable. [Where the hell is it, and what do
  you check it for?]

  I uninstalled and reinstalled OpenShot and Python's MLT libraries...
  sudo apt-get remove openshot python-mlt3 --purge
  sudo apt-get install python-mlt3 ## It is unclear whether this command should refer to python-mlt or python-mlt3
  sudo apt-get install openshot
  Then I got rid of the old profile settings for the user.
  mv ~/.openshot/ ~/.openshot-old/

  After doing the above steps I cleaned up the various  cacheswith apt-
  get and rebooted.  Everything appeared to work. The next morning
  Openshot reverted to having a dead launch icon.

  It is clear that the openshot package contains a lot of carefully
  thought out and powerful features and represents a lot of very
  impressive work by its developers. My problem is that ALL I want to do
  is reduce a .avi file from my camera, UNCHANGED, to a 320 x 240 .mp4
  that will play in the most common phone and desktop browsers using the
  most elementary and featureless HTML5 video player imaginable. This
  task, which should have been a no brainer and taken minutes, has been
  only partially successful after 2 man days of frustration.
