TJ,
I just noticed that the PPA for OpenShot doesn't *"depend"* on the Frie0r
package.  Once I installed the frei0r package from the PPA, everything
worked fine.  From this point going forward, the Frei0r package should be
required, or OpenShot will crash often. =)  Hopefully that is an easy thing
to change.

Thanks,
-Jonathan
