Crash when transcoding AVCHD when timeline is not scrolled to the end

[Andre Holdstock]

I film rugby matches on a Canon Legria HF R16 camera. To save editing time I do a lot of stop start filming which means after a match there is easily 80 or 90 clips of film that I batch import into OpenShot.

Because my computer is not strong enough to edit HD video I batch add the clips to the timeline and start transcoding directly. If I don't first scroll all the way to the end of the timeline at least once before starting the transcode the OpenShot will crash at some stage during the transcode.

I am not sure when exactly this happens as I normally start the transcode at night and go to bed as it takes a few hours. last night the crash happened when the final file was around 340MB. the file was not playable.

OS: Linux Mint 9
Installation method PPA
Version: 1.3

As this is an old bug report, are you able to verify if it is still a problem using version 1.4.3 of OpenShot and version0.8.2 of MLT?
