okay I have upgraded melt to 0.5.5, but now i get this error message when run openshot in the terminal
Process no longer exists: 5598.  Creating new pid lock file.
A new frmMain has been created
No formats or codecs were found.  Please check the OpenShot preferences and configure the 'melt' command name.

Segmentation fault

any help to get this up and running is greatly appreciated, openshot is
amazing, i just dont want those pesky artifacts in the video, if those
are gone, its flawless hi-def

-- 
newest version of openshot doesnt use melt 0.5.6 and creates artifacts in video

Bug description:
Hello,
I installed openshot a while back and so far its the best out there for what i need, the only issue I have is that when i would preview or render video, there would be white artifacts around high contrast areas, looking into this in your bug reports I find that the issue is with melt, so I went over to melt and asked what I would need to do to resolve this, they emailed me back to request an update. the current version of openshot uses version 0.5.4 and the current version is 0.5.6 and that an update to openshot is needed to use the latest version of melt. is this possible or is there a workaround to getting the current version of openshot to run the current version of melt? (noob warning here, i have switched to ubuntu three days ago, so this is all new to me.)
