@Reuss András Your work works perfect, I have needed help to be able to pass the information that you have put in your text file to the original files. I don't know about programming. Once like this I have compiled and installed the program and it has worked correctly.
Phyllis Smit should see this good work. I do not know if there is a limit of files that are created, I have played with this and I have created more than 100. Is it possible to define the creation of these files with a limit? For example 50 backup files, I think that with this figure anyone could recover the project from it. And now a proposal if it is not to abuse your programming knowledge. Is it possible, for example, to create in the same folder where we have the xml file two or three backup files? This is very frequent in this type of application, Adobe makes 5 copies by default, the oldest is deleted and a new one is added to the list. In the application preferences you can choose the number of copies and how often they are created. Even in a sudden shutdown the last backup can be more recent than the project file if the autosave time is longer than the backup time. Blender does this too. It's just an idea, I don't like to abuse anyone's time, but something like this would be wonderful at Cinelerra GG. And then there is the problem of a BatchRender option that could be kept if it does not overwrite the current file and make a copy of it, with a number for example, in order to never lose our project due to a wrong click. Thank you very much, and I repeat that they are only ideas, if you want to do them it would be wonderful.
