Summary

0002203: LADSPA-derived effects all inoperable

Description

Warning to newbies (like me): !DO NOT CLICK ON `AUDIO' IN THE EFFECTS!

All (what I believe are) LADSPA audio effects that I have tried are inoperable.

In addition, right-clicking on a clip in the timeline & choosing `Effects | Audio' will immediately fill the entire screen with screen-names of useless effects. There are no controls (so many cannot be seen), and no obvious way on how to escape.

That behaviour inevitably makes you, the developers, look like total prats. I think that it does you a disservice.

Steps To Reproduce

1 drop a clip in the timeline
2 from the effects window choose any LADSPA audio effect
3 try to work out what it does
4 try to discern any effect of any kind on playback
5 repeat until you give up in disgust

Notes
(0007176) ttill (developer) 2011-08-10 16:03	Thanks for the nice report! For me the effects work, could you please retest with latest MLT + Kdenlive? the audio effect obviously still need to be categorised. Fell free to propose. In the effect list there also is a search.
