Last modified: 2009-09-07 06:10:27 UTC
Please describe the problem: It is impossible to render the project if you just have viewed again to a clip Steps to reproduce: 1. Import a clip in the project 2. Add this clip to the timeline 3. Double click on the clip in the sourceslist 4. clip is now playing and the "Render project" button is disabled 5. unable to start rendering or reactivating the "render project" button without readding something to the timeline Actual results: "render project" button is disabled Expected results: This button should only be disabled when there are no clips in the timeline Does this happen every time? yes Other information:
*** Bug 458931 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
When you play a temporary source, the viewer switches from the timeline to that source. You need to tell the viewer to switch back to the timeline in order to preview/render. Have you tried clicking on the timeline ruler?
When you play a temporary source, the viewer switches from the timeline to that source. You need to tell the viewer to switch back to the timeline in order to preview/render. Have you tried clicking on the timeline ruler? Perhaps this is a usability issue instead of a bug. It's not at all clear that the viewer can play from multiple independent sources. Perhaps we should have one-off sources play in their own preview windows, and use the viewer only for the timeline.
This seems fixed in the git version, afaict.
Confirmed.
