If you're getting this error: *** ERROR: MLT Python bindings failed to import *** *** ERROR: MLT Python bindings failed to import *** Exception in thread Thread-1: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.6/threading.py", line 525, in __bootstrap_inner self.run() File "/usr/share/openshot/classes/thumbnail.py", line 174, in run mlt.Factory().init() NameError: global name 'mlt' is not defined
then it is usually the case that there is a previous installation of MLT hanging around on your machine. This could be from an earlier install of Openshot (maybe via the .deb installer, or a previous PPA, or from a kdenlive PPA or something). Either way, you should uninstall Openshot and then ensure the previous version of MLT is fully uninstalled. Check there are no MLT files in the folder: /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages There is further detailed info here: https://answers.launchpad.net/openshot/+question/95857 -- openshot won't open in Ubuntu 9.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/482985 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
