Shotcut does not add video to the timeline

alexanderzhirov

brent Katoa I removed the installed program and installed it from Flatpack (I have Zoom installed from there and it works well). The version is installed on 21.09.20. The timeline is now displayed, and icons appeared above the timeline, everything seems to be working. But the "Open File" button and some menu items in the "Help" drop-down list do not work. Also the problem with scaling ... The interface is too huge.

I also observe a problem with connecting the module "canberra-gtk-module", although it is in the system.

alexanderzhirov Hmm... i have no issues with the Shotcut flatpak, when it comes to the "Open file" button & the "Help" drop-down list both works without issue.

Got the same module "canberra-gtk-module" error, have seen that with other flatpaks, but it does not seem to cause any issues as far as i can tell.

it's a trade-off sometimes.
still would flle a bug report at dev tracker so maybe Solus can be made aware of this new change (timelines incomplete) in the package updated 5 days ago.

Axios Not ... The problem is something else. I don't even have control icons on the timeline like alexanderzhirov

I dont run shotcut on linux but do on my mac 05-09 all seem to work ok on mac if I run View->Layout->Restore Default Layout it resets to 2 windows that I can resize to anything main window and timeline. (just info) Not sure how it acts on linux

Regarding the latest Shotcut flatpak release v21.09.20, one of the changes in the change log is:
"Fixed dragging to Timeline broken if there is MLT XML on the clipboard (broke v21.08.29)"

Full changelog: https://github.com/mltframework/shotcut/releases/tag/v21.09.20

Katoa Hmm yes.! Then I just need to wait for the Solus repository to update

brent

Katoa great find/good news

alexanderzhirov

Harvey brent Katoa Hmm ... I installed the latest version from the repository - the situation has not changed at all. Maybe the problem is, after all, in some libraries? Maybe the wrong version of Qt?

Thank you all, I just downloaded & tried to use Shotcut for the first time today, and I was driving myself crazy reading through tutorials thinking I must be doing something wrong. Seeing that it's a known bug and a solution is in the works is a big relief!

brent

still seeing no chatter about fixing current repo v21.09.20 in dev tracker. unless I looked wrong (quite possible). fingers crossed for y'all

Harvey

brent
If 21.09.20 fixes the issue as has been suggested it has been in Solus's unstable repo since 5th October. https://dev.getsol.us/D11935 so it'll be in this weeks sync.

brent

Harvey thanks for that update. did read 11935 but glad to know that's how it works.

alexanderzhirov Uhh dunno maybe its me wheres the video in the preview window? and try doing what your doing but with preview window cursur on window and drag to timeline. See if it does anything should drop put it in timeline.

Axios

alexanderzhirov ahh ok see it now I thought the othe 2 videos were yours I see it in the current one you posted
What i would do is make another user login in to it dont change anything see if it works if it does i would guess icon libraries or fonts or something. I had some those get messed up for some reason and did a check fixed them and another program I was having issues with worked then.. Oh did you happen go into shotcut view application log and see if any debug errors?

Harvey

Works fine for me. It is possible the theme is causing issues 🤷‍♂️

alexanderzhirov

Harvey I tried to change the theme inside Budgie, and in the Shotcut itself - still unchanged. The situation is the same on another computer (using a laptop) - Solus 4.3 is also installed and the same problem with Shotcut.

Axios

Ahh there is some issue going on with timelime installed 21.8 no friday updates runs ok but on timeline icons no popup text when you highlight an icon box appears no text but if I change to fusion theme that comes with shotcut it works properly. Will do updates to 21.9now see if it changes (mac works fine no issues ) oh budgie

brent

Axios you give 110% [tips hat]

alexanderzhirov unrelated but related, notice last post: https://dev.getsol.us/T9932
elements appear to be under construction.

Axios

Updated system and shotcut still shows no icon text in timeline with system theme but works with the 2 fusions selections Dunno at this point uhh found shotcut throwing this error

libDeckLinkAPI.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[Warning] <MLT> [consumer 0xfe6ba0] The DeckLink drivers not installed
Somebody smarter than me might have to chime in only error I could find!
was in terminal when started from there and shotcut debug log ahh seems normal did google search
for some kind of error for external hardware (I am out of ideas)

Axios

I guess this is what we were trying to reproduce I can not get it to work and dont see no errors anywhere TIMELINE DEAD NO DRAG N DROP LATEST VERSION SHOTCUT UPDATED GNOME
