Public bug reported:

Using: Ubuntu 10.10
Install: Synaptic, Ubuntu Repository list
Version of OpenShot: 1.2.2

The Play-Head (including red line) dissappears when it moves in any way,
and does not reappear until restart, but will disappear again as soon as
it moves. This includes when "play" is pressed and when jumping
positions on the timeline. This started happening yesterday, and I'm not
sure why. I've tried re-installing Openshot with the same result.

Upon further testing I found that this only happens when I load a
particular project. I can add clips (including clips from said project)
without issue, and I can play other projects without issue (to an
extent). However, if I load the problem project the play head will
disappear (it looks like it goes behind an invisible screen actually, as
it incrimentally changes moving into a position before the first hash
mark). Then, if I try to add a new project, the playhead will disappear
there, and if I import and add a file, the file will not show up on the
timeline (though if I hit play it will play). I can still jump around
through the timeline in both cases by clicking on a position, but I will
not see the play-head at any time. I've also tried loading different
projects after the first project has a problem and they initially show
the play head, but then do the same thing with the play head
disappearing at the same point (unless I restart OpenShot and load the
other project first).

This is a very strange error that I can't figure out, and when I run
openshot from terminal I don't get anything unusual at all, no errors or
fails, just standard 'clicked with' 'called with' etc. commands at the
appropriate times.

I can't figure out any difference between the projects either.

While trying to get a screenshot to show, I also discovered that 1) if I
change the zoom on the timeline the playhead will flash at the beginning
of the timeline (but only flash), and 2) If i stop the play in the
middle of where it begins to disappear the playhead will continue to
move into disappearance.

I've attatched some screenshots to help.
