Summary0001720: crash when adding lossless Matroska file to project
DescriptionI used Kdenlive's transcode option to create a lossless Matroska file. When I try to add this file to the project tree, Kdenlive segfaults.
Steps To ReproduceI captured 3.5 minutes of my desktop using the following ffmpeg command:
ffmpeg -f x11grab -r 30 -s 1088x612 -i :0.0 -vcodec libx264 -vpre lossless_ultrafast -threads 0 output.mkv

The resulting file is 7.6 MB in size, and I rename it to:
Scarlatti K466 sheet music.mkv

However, if I crop the beginning off of the resulting video in Kdenlive, the first several seconds of the video are garbled (it's missing a keyframe, I'm guessing). So I convert the video to lossless Matroska in an attempt to get around this. These are the options I use:

-an -sn -vcodec huffyuv %1.mkv

The transcoded file is 1.5 GB in size, and I name it:
Scarlatti K466 sheet music-lossless.mkv

Then, when I drag the file into my project (or even a blank project), Kdenlive segfaults.
Additional InformationThe crash happens with both MLT version 0.5.4 (ubuntu repository) and 0.5.6 (ppa:sunab/ppa). I generated the bug report using version 0.5.4 since sunab's repository doesn't contain the debug packages for 0.5.6.

 I tried playing the lossless Matroska file with ffplay and melt. Neither played the file and both had the same error.

ffplay:
Error generating huffman table
lossless.mkv: could not open codecs

melt:
Error generating huffman table
Segmentation fault 0

 If I convert the original file to an .avi rather than .mkv file, then ffplay, melt, and Kdenlive all are happy with it. I make the conversion from the command line:

ffmpeg -i input.mkv -an -sn -vcodec huffyuv output.avi

 Maybe just something went wrong during transcoding. Did you try to transcode a second time? For me the transcode profile works.
However I noticed the quality of the file (ffmpeg -f x11grab -r 30 -s 1280x720 -i :0.0 -vcodec libx264 -vpre lossless_ultrafast -threads 0 output.mkv) is way better in ffplay than in melt or kdenlive.

 re-transcoding the file results in the same errors and Kdenlive crash. VLC plays the file just fine. Would you like me to send you the file I'm transcoding from? It's only 7.6 MB in size. Perhaps you might be able to reproduce the crash with my file. Just let me know how you'd like me to get the file to you.

 I recorded a file with your command and transcoded it afterwards with the options you gave, but Kdenlive does not crash.
If you want you can send the file to "root [at] ttill . de"

 I tried with the file you sent but could not reproduce. As it does not work in ffplay for you the problem is probably there. Maybe this is something that was fixed in the meantime (I use ffmpeg from svn).
Additionally I can also use the original file and crop from its beginning without it looking different.

 Thanks for all your time, anyway. At least I have a workaround for now (transcoding to AVI).

 Fixed in MLT git commit 713917b4b3bb6d764996e348a3178b3a21c4e8b0 for the 0.5.8 version.
