Can not open 1.4.2 project in 1.4.3 alpha

[XXLRay]

I pulled openshot 1.4.3 alpha from the repository and launch it on Ubuntu 11.10 by "openshot/bin/openshot". I can not open at least one of my projects I created in 1.4.2 any more (others work properly). I get a window opened containing the following error message:

There was an error opening this project file. Please be sure you open the correct *.osp file.

There are no error messages on the command line.

I attached the project file.

Hi, I found the problem with your OSP file. To fix it, open in a text editor, and change the 1st line from:

Original:
(iopenshot.classes.project

Modified:
(iclasses.project

Save the file, and now it will work in OpenShot. I have no idea why it would do that, but maybe it's based on how you launched OpenShot, or how OpenShot was imported initially. But I don't think it has to do specifically with 1.4.3, because I could not reproduce this problem. Thanks.

I have a same problem and I created a dump of the exception. Here is the output:
Error <type 'exceptions.ImportError'> No module named classes.project
  File "/home/tomas/src/openshot/openshot/windows/OpenProject.py", line 66, in on_btnOpenProject_clicked
    self.form.open_project(file_to_open)
  File "/home/tomas/src/openshot/openshot/windows/MainGTK.py", line 886, in open_project
    self.project.Open(file_to_open)
  File "/home/tomas/src/openshot/openshot/classes/project.py", line 347, in Open
    open_project.open_project(self, file_path)
  File "/home/tomas/src/openshot/openshot/classes/open_project.py", line 39, in open_project
    project_object = pickle.load(myFile)

It seems that pickle.load cannot find the class "classes.project". I tried to add "import classes.project" and "import project" into open_project.py , but it did not helped.

I'm using python version 2.7.3 on debian sid

Thank you so much! Changing the first line to "(iclasses.project" really made it work again. I have no idea where the wring entry came from but this fix saved days of work.
