Kdenlive crashes when loading one particular .mp4 file


Hello,
i am using Kdenlive to edit videos recorded from TV with VLC. I had no problems until today whan i made one recording and then when i load it in Kdenlive or OpenShot, both are crashing right away.
Kdenlive:
Code:
bash-4.2$ kdenlive

It seems that the problem is common for both applications.

I have succeeded in editing other videos recorded the same way with OpenShot and Kdenlive.

I suppose that this is not a Slackware distribution problem but someone might know more.

Thank you!

Solution

I was able to find a work around. I loaded the video in Avidemux2. Then i cut only the part that i needed - A, B cursors. I exported the edited video as a sequence of still images.
I extracted the audio from the captured original video and edited it with Audacity.
Then i imported the sequence of images and the edited audio in Kdenlive. Finally i rendered the edited audio and the sequence of images as an .mp4 file.
It was a bit of effort but successful.
