The real test is to use the mlt command line program melt but the fact
that vlc and mplayer work is good.

The GtkWarning message is normal and has been removed for 1.1

Probably best to launch openshot from the terminal each time - then if
it does crash there may be some useful error message.

Status in OpenShot Video Editor: New

Bug description:
Pretty much all the time, just clicking on anything at any time, will cause the program to crash. The worst time was when I right clicked to get a menu on an item in the list of media files, and then the program crashed, causing a total of freeze of everything in the GUI. I tried a console to use sudo killall openshot, but it did not work. I had to reset the X server completely before I could do anything at all. 
I am using Ubuntu 9.04, 64-bit, with 4 GB RAM, > 1 TB HDD, trying to create short videos using AVCHD video files mostly from my Panasonic Lumix TZ7 digital camera.
OpenShot 1.0.0.1, installed from DEB.
I save often and regularly so that I do not lose any work, but it is a bit much to have to click Save every single time before doing anything in case it crashes.
