A small update: I figured out that the crashes happen with that avi
files from my camera (> 600 MB). It doesn't seem to happen with a small
mpeg1 file. But: I worked on that avi file for the last hour without a
crash. Everything was ok since I disabled video for this track.

Any ideas what's going wrong here?

Bug description:
I start using OpenShot with a very fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10. I used the package manager to install OpenShot.

It is not possible to work properly because of very frequent crashes. I added a 640x480 avi video (from my photo camera) and some newly created SVG images. After that I added some fading effects ("left to right" and "right to left") and played with moving and resizing SVGs and effects. Just clicking around like that, OpenShot crashes in less than 2 minutes of working. The window just closes. If you start OpenShot within a terminal it just outputs "segmentation fault" when the crash happens. This behavior is 100% reproducible but one can't say when exactly the crash will happen. Sometimes it happens when you resize something, sometimes when you drag an effect or image to the timeline, sometimes when you start playing the preview.

First, I thought is was an issue with the zoom somehow because there are some more bugs when zooming to "1 second". Unfortunately the crashes happen with every zoom level.

I add an openshot.debug, if that helps.
