Hi,
> Version: 1:2.4.4-dmo4

OpenShot 2.4.4 isn't part of Debian yet. It seems you've probably gotten your
package from a third-party repository. Have you tried the 2.4.3 package? If
you're using Buster it should be available. OpenShot is broken on newer
releases for the time being however.

Bug#955975: Massive memory leak in openshot 2.4.4 leads to freeze

2020-04-05 Thread Jack Lucchetti
Package: openshot-qt
Version: 1:2.4.4-dmo4
Severity: grave

When you edit a project with many clips, the cache is not freed properly.
This causes a number of problems, including complete freeze of the computer
when exporting the project to a file because the RAM gets used up (and the
swap space too).

The issue is describe well here:
https://github.com/OpenShot/openshot-qt/issues/2237

Apparently, the bug was fixed upstream over a year ago and version 2.5.1
should be ok.
