OpenShot Video Editor

Export video?

Asked by Onno

I have a project with around 20 minutes of avi files, size of the files is around 5 or 6 gb. I want to create a DVD from this so I started export video. After confirming settings this produced a progress bar which finished after a few minutes. Now OpenShot seems stuck. There is no progress bar anymore that indicates progress but OpenShot seems busy or is unable to finish. Export Video dialog is displayed but is completely gray, no controls or anything. I don see anything in the export location that looks like a VOB file. There is a file with the extension dvd but the file is 0 bytes.

What should I do? Cancel? Kill? Wait? How long?

Hi,
This situation (and some others not yet resolved by the MLT Team) comes from of the version of our Framework MLT that you are using on Oneiric (0.7.4) The only solution is to update it at the last version using the sunab PPA.

Good luck.

Can you help with this problem?
