Hi, This is an issue that has been around for a while, but now all of the major piave issues seem to have been dealt with, I think it's time to bring it up.
Occasionally, on closing kdenlive a piave process remains alive. I don't know if this is caused by kdenlive failing to shut it down correctly (I have suspicions that the KProcess object is responsible for the freezes that you are experiencing in kdenlive, and it may also be responsible for this). or, it could be that piave isn't terminating it's threads correctly when it crashes. I think this is possible, since I have sometimes experienced the piave process crashing, but then continue to recieve debug information on the same channel - there was an example I posted a week or so ago, when a continuous stream of video resize messages were emitted after piave had crashed. The upshot is, that before kdenlive can be re-started correctly, the stray processes need to be killed. Have you any thoughts on the best way to deal with this issue?
