At startup of Kdenlive, MLT scans for available plugins in all its modules: frei0r, avfilter, etc. VST plugins are part of the jackrack module. Some of the plugins can cause MLT to crash so they are maintained in the file "blacklist.txt" which - unfortunately for normal users - is only used when compiling Kdenlive. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
