New kdenlive user, rendering crashes -- where to begin?

Hi folks,

I am just taking my first look at kdenlive, so please be kind!

I have created a very simple project with one clip and one title frame. I have tried to render it to different formats, but everything I've tried ends in a crash.

I'm running Fedora 17 and kdenlive was apparently installed with the default installation because it was "just there." It is Kdenlive version 0.9.2.

I have seen a lot of posts to the forum for the render crashing issue, and it seems to be a widespread issue with a lot of underlying causes. So I'm hoping there is an outline of things to check. I'm sure there is just a missing library or supporting program somewhere but I don't know where to begin.

With each attempt, the rendering seems to get to the very end, and then I get something like this:

Rendering of /home/xxxxxxxx/Videos/kdenlive/goofy_test_1.avi crashed
[swscaler @ 0x7fd5e9f277c0] Warning: data is not aligned! This can lead to a speedloss

I will say that the render does seem to produce a viewable video file, so perhaps the crash is something innocuous?

Thanks,
Derek

Hi! Welcome to kdenlive and the forums!

I'd start by recompiling ffmpeg from the latest source. Or use the kdenlive build script to compile kdenlive and all dependencies in a separate folder tree.

Regards, OpenThinking
