MLT bindings fail to import
When I try to start OpenShot I receive the following errors:
dlphilp@The3800:~$ openshot
Added /usr/share/openshot to system path
-------
OpenShot (version 0.9.52)
-------
*** 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/
self.run()
File "/usr/share/
mlt.
NameError: global name 'mlt' is not defined
-------
Error: OpenShot has not been installed in the Python path.
(Both the site-packages and /usr/share/openshot folders were checked)
Use the following command to install OpenShot:
$ sudo python setup.py install
However, I have followed the installation instructions a number of times, always resulting in the same error. System is Ubuntu Jaunty, MLT is 0.7.7 (built locally), Python is 2.6 and correctly installed. Kdenlive works perfectly with my build of MLT, btw.
I'd like to review OpenShot for the Linux Journal. I have to get it running first, so any help would be appreciated.
