Title:
  Crash when previewing OSP files from an older version of OpenShot

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  My old OSP project files no longer work.  The application segfaults
  when previewing at the point it reaches certain transitions.

  I have identified that the OSP files include references to paths such
  as '/usr/share/openshot/transitions/sand.svg' which no longer exists.
  I think the paths have since changed to something like
  '/usr/share/pyshared/openshot/transitions'.

  Could we make it so OpenShot scans these paths when the project is
  opened to make sure they exist?  Maybe it could then show a dialogue
  for resolving missing files.  I think the same dialogue would be
  useful for finding other missing resources, for example, in the
  scenario where someone has moved the folder which contains their
  source video.

  The dialogue could offer options such as fully automatic scanning for
  the files, or offer the ability to point to a base path to scan.
