Hello Kdenlive Team, Apologies if I'm taking up your time or asking questions that have already been answered on your website, but I wanted to reach out personally regarding a few concerns. The following points are all related to the editing software: *1. Bug Reporting*
I'm not sure how big the team behind Kdenlive is, so I don’t know if this is the reason, but my bug report seems to have been completely ignored. I submitted it on the official Kdenlive bug report website around three months ago and have yet to receive a response. As I mentioned, this could be due to team size limitations or higher-priority tasks, but I wanted to bring it up again. *(Bug ID: 495683)* *2. Version Saving Incompatibility* Somehow, I managed to corrupt my save file simply by opening it. Here's what happened: I was editing a video for about two hours (on version *24.08.2*) and wanted to add an audio spectrogram filter to the master effects. To check my settings, I opened another project file that was saved in an older Kdenlive version (*22.04.2*). It turns out that opening an older version does not actually convert or update it to the newer version, despite what the software states. When I attempted to open the master effects tab, Kdenlive crashed. This crash also corrupted my other project (the one in version *24.08.2*) even though they were unrelated. The crash persists no matter what I try, and examining the file does not reveal any solutions. Additionally, Kdenlive does not provide any crash logs or error messages regarding this issue. I believe there should either be an option to manually convert or upgrade project files or a fix for this issue to prevent data loss. ------------------------------ Again, I apologize if I am asking about something that has already been addressed. However, since I couldn’t even get an assigned assistant for my bug report, I decided to reach out via email. There are a few other minor inconveniences, but those are more personal preferences, so I’ll leave them out for now. I'm looking forward to hearing from you! Best regards, Lukas
