IRIE, I am using the latest trunk version of MLT on a Ubuntu 10.04 system, running the latest version of OpenShot (of course), and I can not reproduce this error. I created 2 different image sequences of snow, added the 2 clips to my timeline, back to back, and have been playing them repeatability for the past 20 minutes. It works without any issues.
Can you give this a try. Run these commands, and see if you notice anything of significance. Step 1) Run $ lsof | grep "openshot" > ~/Desktop/openfiles_before.txt Step 2) Run openshot, and reproduce the "too many files" error Step 3) While openshot is experiencing the issue, open up a new terminal, and run: lsof | grep "openshot" > ~/Desktop/openfiles_after.txt My only thought was perhaps some library or MLT itself has already fixed this issue, and you are using one of those older libraries. Of course, that is just a theory. =) Thanks, -Jonathan -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenShot Developers, which is subscribed to OpenShot Video Editor. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/700478 Title: OSError: [Errno 24] Too many open files Status in OpenShot Video Editor: Fix Committed Bug description: Using OpenShot 1.3-alpha-1 latest branch, while trying to view edits in the timeline (sliding the bar) the preview screen goes white, the the program stops working, the only term output is OSError: [Errno 24] Too many open files: '~/.openshot/queue' Running the program straight from .py haven't compiled it, if that makes a difference. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openshot.developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openshot.developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
