Thank you Phyllis, I feel a little bit less Bug... just a little bit... Suggestion: Why don't you create a menu option (separate from the file upload option), just for loading .xml lists. If I remember correctly, someone once suggested to move the file upload menu to the media resource window. With an .xml list loading menu in the Files menu of the program window, there would be less chance of Bug at 24 inches... |

@Pierre Once we switched to French AND "create resources only", we did get a crash. GG made a fix and will check that into GIT on the next checkin and it will be in the end of the month builds. So Andrew was right ! and please do not hesitate to continue reporting your "24 inch bugs" because even if you do something differently, it still should not crash --- ever. I do not like the default being "create resources only" for the load but apparently new users did not like the fact that "replace current project" unexpectedly wiped out their work and we got a lot of criticism for this. So it has to stay "create resources only". |

Reopening per Andrew's recommendation. With the new information of "create new resources only" maybe we can get it to crash. |

Good to know. It was not a waste of time for us as it is always good to review what Cinelerra is doing and make sure all is working. Sometimes there are bugs out there for years that we never hear about until finally someone reports it. Enjoyed the commentary of "the Bug was me" !!! |

I found the Bug! As usual, the Bug was 24 inches in front of the screen... the Bug was me... I've always been used to systematically use (I never change it) the "Create only new resources" option in the loading window for new media files. This is the option that was in place when I tried to load the old .xml list that always ended in a CinGG crash... When I had the idea to change to the "Replace current project" option... the whole project loaded well, without any problem... I'm really sorry you had to waste all this time for nothing. |

It works for GG on his desktop and for me independently on my laptop (we used French as the language too). We do not see it trying to load a proxy file and none is shown in the xml file. The dump seems to indicate Motion51 plugin was in use right before it crashed. Right now I am generating a proxy file just to see if that makes a difference but it does not. GG ran the August 31 build on a Mint 18 system and still not crash. He built a version with the latest fixes in it so you can try that. It is at: https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/testing/cinelerra-5.1-mint18-x86_64-static.txz |

I send you by private email a link to the archive containing the video file (1.6 Gb). You will have access to it if needed. |

GG will look at the dumps first thing tomorrow morning. |
