Hi. Thanks for looking at this issue. Where did you install kdenlive ? The problem seems to be that the file: vnd.kde.kdenlive.desktop was not installed in a correct place. This file goes in $PREFIX/share/mimelnk/application Please, try copying it to $HOME/.kde/share/mimelnk/application and restart kdenlive to see if it fixes the issue. > In any case I urgly recommend that ProjectFormatManager::saveDocument() > at least displays an error dialog in this situation instead of failing > silently.. Sure. I will try to fix the install issue and fix this problem. regards jb
