i have no idea what it means when it says "no frame" but what i do know
is that "no frame" is not causing the export to fail.

here is some more info about these videos: directly from the camera, the
kodak zi8, it is a file in .MOV container, and the video codec is x264,
and the audio codec is aac. i can even use ffmpeg to change the
container to .mp4 and set the video and audio codecs to "copy" and it
works fine.

i do use the advanced export features. in fact what works for me just
fine is choosing Youtube-HD, switch to the advanced tab and change the
video bitrate to 5MB/s and change the audio codec to libmp3lame and
bitrate to 256. here is yet another video i successfully exported from
openshot in this way: http://youtube.com/watch?v=frIemBdpU9k

i don't have any other video files to test this with, but if you could
tell me where to get one online i'll gladly try. also, i don't know what
cli commands you want me to try, but i will gladly try them if you tell
me.

the main thing i don't understand is why i can "convert" the videos from
my device to x264/libfaac with ffmpeg at the cli, but openshot won't do
it. is it possible that openshot or mlt are calling the wrong command or
operator or something for libfaac? openshot/mlt can't possibly be trying
to use ffmpeg for libfaac if ffmpeg itself can do it just fine.

openshot bleeding-edge PPA ubuntu 9.10 karmic export crashes

similar to bug#442647
ubuntu 9.10 karmic 32bit, OpenShot (version 0.9.53) installed from experimental bleeding edge ppa.

i installed openshot with one of the methods prior to the experimental bleeding edge ppa being released, and i edited video from a flip ultraHD and exported to DVD format just fine. i can't recall which method i used, but it could have been either the 9.04 deb or the dev ppa for 9.10. at any rate, i had a previous version installed. i recently bought a kodak zi8 and wanted to try editing video from it in openshot. at the same time i noticed you released the experimental bleeding edge ppa that is supposed to work for 9.10 32bit without breaking other programs, so i wanted to try that. openshot kept crashing whenever i tried to export video to Youtube-HD and Vimeo-HD presets. i think i've narrowed it down to having to be related to the audio codecs, but i'm not sure what to do. i am able to export to the Flickr-HD preset just fine, which uses the same video codec i think but ac3 audio, and it plays in totem. if i pick the Vimeo-HD or Youtube-HD presets and change the audio to ac3 they export fine as well. i tried to read around to figure out what i might need to do to fix this, and ended up completely removing all packages related to mlt, ffmpeg, x264, openshot, and then reinstalling openshot and letting it pick its dependencies from the bleeding edge ppa. anyway here is what i found from running openshot in verbose mode from the terminal, my comments after //
