--- Comment #1 from Urs Fleisch <uflei...@users.sourceforge.net> ---
Thanks for the report. I analyzed the case using gdb and found out that the
problem starts when QFileInfo is used:

kid3application.cpp:
839       for (const QString& path : pathList) {
840         if (!path.isEmpty()) {
841           QFileInfo fileInfo(path);
842           if (fileCheck && !fileInfo.exists()) {

fileInfo.exists() will return false if path starts with a colon. See
https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qfileinfo.html for the explanation:

> Note: Paths starting with a colon (:) are always considered absolute, as they 
> denote a QResource.

You can use the following workaround: Use "./:a.mp4" instead of ":a.mp4" (or
use the absolute path to the file).
