MartinG <grons...@gmail.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |grons...@gmail.com --- Comment #3 from MartinG <grons...@gmail.com> --- Thank you for this - I have spent a few hours trying to find out why my external proxy clips don't work. Below is a workaround that solved my problem of non-working external proxy clips. I can confirm this bug (shuffling of external proxy settings) on the following versions (Fedora Linux): kdenlive-24.08.3-1.fc40.x86_64 kdenlive-24.12.0-1.fc41.x86_64 In my kdenliverc, I have this: externalProxyProfile=./;GOPR;./;GOPR;./;GL;./;GH;./;.LRV;./;.MP4;./;.LRV;./;.MP4;GL;.LRV;GX;.MP4;GP;.LRV;GP;.MP4 I have checked that the settings are transferred to the Project Settings when I create a new project, but realize now that that's where the problem is; in my project settings, I have eg. Relative path from clip to proxy: ./;./;./;GX which is wrong, as "GX" is in fact a prefix. It is all messed up. So, if I save the project, and open the .kdenlive project file, I have the following: <property name="kdenlive:docproperties.externalproxyparams">./;GOPR;./;GOPR;./;GL;./;GH;./;.LRV;./;.MP4;./;.LRV;./;.MP4;GL;.LRV;GX;.MP4;GP;.LRV;GP;.MP4</property> Looking at the documentation https://docs.kdenlive.org/en/tips_and_tricks/useful_info/using_camcorder_proxy_clips.html#using-camcorder-proxy-clips I see that I have also ~/.local/share/kdenlive/externalproxies.rc with this in it: GoPro LRV=./;GOPR;./;GOPR;./;GL;./;GH;./;.LRV;./;.MP4;./;.LRV;./;.MP4;GL;.LRV;GX;.MP4;GP;.LRV;GP;.MP4 But the manual says: profile name=<proxy_folder> (relative to original clip); <proxy clip prefix>; <proxy clip suffix>; <original_folder> (relative to proxy file); <original_clip_prefix>; <original_clip_suffix> and GoPro LRV=./;GL;.LRV;./;GX;.MP4;./;GP;.LRV;./;GP;.MP4;./;GOPR;.LRV;./;GOPR;.MP4 So I updated it (actually also changed it, since I have GoPro HERO cameras (GL proxy to GH origs): GoPro LRV=./;GL;.LRV;./;GH;.MP4 This also resulted in messed up settings when I open kdenlive and choose New and look at the Proxy settings. Turns out this file isn't used before I switch from "Current settings" (where ever they came from?) to "GoPro LRV". Nice. And it works - when I choose the GoPro GHxxxxxx.MP4 file, it gets marked with the "P" almost immediately. I guess this should also work, not tested yet: GoPro LRV=./;GP;.LRV;./;GP;.MP4;./;GL;.LRV;./;GH;.MP4;./;GS;.LRV;./;GS;.360;./;GOPR;.LRV;./;GOPR;.MP4 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
