Description Cathal O'Brien 2007-03-14 21:02:00 UTC 
I've instaled the latest release of Pitivi in Kubuntu repositories (.10.1)

When i click on the program in the KMenu it fails to load. When i tryed from 
the command line I got this:

The program 'pitivi' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 12200 error_code 3 request_code 3 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Bug confirmed on Ubuntu 6.10 (Gnome). Starting pitivi from the menu item created during installation results in pitivi silently failing to start.

Starting pitivi from the bash shell gives

The program 'pitivi' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.

running pitivi --gst-version from the bash shell returns

GStreamer Core Library version 0.10.10

I really need an X expert to help me figure out this one. I thought I fixed it some months ago but it's still around.
Comment 3 Edward Hervey 2007-03-20 09:43:36 UTC 
Bug has been fixed in 0.10.2
