[Solved] Openshot 1.4.2

[atolboo]

I get an Error popup screen when I start Openshot 1.4.2 that it can not find the frei0r-effecten library and that the package frei0r-plugins should be installed.
However a 'frei0r-plugins' search in Synaptic shows that it is already installed.
Does this mean that Openshot 1.4.2 is a broken package and I should report it in Broken Packages section

When I did a search using just frei0r it returned 3 files (using heanet.ie repo)

Thanks for clearing this issue.

Hi atolboo -  if thing are now okay, and when you have a moment, can you please add (Solved) to the subject line of your original post.  Ta.

[atolboo]

I was already considering to do that.
The problem is still there and the best next thing (my opinion) is to put something like [On hold] there.
The problem is finally solved when it's done upstream.
What would you like me to do
I did not find that link in my 'openshot' search in this forum otherwise I would not have started this item.

Hi atolboo,

I am working on this issue (guess I was the 1st one to spot it) with one of the devs. It's not a crippling issue, since one still can edit videos, just the frei0r effects are out (for the time being).
Anyways, I hope for a solution soon.
Ok ?

Best regards,

.......guess I was the 1st one to spot it.....

That is very well possible as I have just investigated my transfer from Pardus to PCLOS and Erfahrung mit PCLinuxOS.

It's not a crippling issue, ...

I know and I noticed that the error popup screen hides behind the Openshot window.
And you can only continue in Openshot after closing this error window.
That makes it a very annoying behavior.

Have you managed to install Openshot 1.4.3?

When trying to install it (using PASS) I get the following message:

Code: [Select]

openshot:
 Depends: libmlt4  but it is not installable

[ff103]

hello agmg: I had to change repos before I could get any updates, I tried with heanet and did not get any updates, I switched to another repo and got an OpenShot update and it seems to have solved my freeze and shut down problem but I have not tried to do any editing yet.

You are talking about version 1.4.3, right?
