Description Red 2019-04-20 22:35:15 UTC

When ffmpeg is built with USE=flite, it causes the following problems with kdenlive:

1. kdenlive replaces the video preview with a green box and refuses to import files with "Clip is invalid, will be removed from project" error.

2. When opening a previous project, all the clips in the project are replaced with "INVALID" etc and refuse to play.

3. After using Settings->Run Config Wizard, it gives an error message that the libavformat module is missing and that it is needed to run the program.

More information on this can be found on bug 683870 (similar problems with media-libs/mlt). I was told to file a separate bug for kde-apps/kdenlive.

kdenlive is not depending on ffmpeg directly, only via mlt. All issues will be subsequent trouble by mlt. It makes no sense to duplicate this then.
