OK, so exporting after the upgrade to 1.2.2 worked. I would try it again
with other formats just to make sure it is a solid fix and not just a
matter of the bug shows up half the time, but it takes about 8 hours, as
I said, to export this video on the machine it is on.

Thanks for the help.

Bug description:
After exporting a rather long video, I found when playing back the exported video that there remained footage I had cut off of clips in the video, and that after said clips there was about 15 seconds of blackness and no sound. In at least one of these cases, the extra footage extended to the end of the original video file, followed by blackness. These are clips in the middle of the overall video.

This does not seem to have overlapped with the video footage that should have played in other tracks, but seems to have pushed over that footage until after it was done (thus extending the length of the video and throwing off the time line). Oddly enough, clips on other tracks played at their proper times, making more issues as clips came in too early. 

In addition I found that about 20 sec. were cut off of the beginning of the whole video.

I went back to the original .osp file and found that, in OpenShot pre-exported, everything is still in place, no extra footage or blackness, everything is lined up.

I'm going to have to re-export this video, but it'll take a while, and I'd rather not have to do it yet again (its a 2 hour long video in pretty high quality). I'll try to do it from terminal just in case so I have something to show you guys if it happens again. I had exported into one of the .mp4 formats.
