How big is your clip?

In any case, as a workaround, you could edit discoverer.py and replace the line

        self.timeout_id = gobject.timeout_add_seconds(10, self._timeoutCb)

By

        self.timeout_id = gobject.timeout_add_seconds(60, self._timeoutCb)

(which would make the timer wait for 60 seconds instead of 10).
But normally, this shouldn't be needed and you should file a bug with details about your file, it shouldn't take so long. I'm just giving you this temporary trick because you said it is urgent.

If you meant that you don't know how to edit text files such as /usr/lib/pitivi/python/pitivi/discoverer.py, then I strongly advise that you do not do it unless you know what you are doing.

Can you help with this problem?
