Render consistently causing core dump segmentation faults

[Brett James]

UbuntuStudio 12.10, 64 Bit Version.
Openshot 1.4.3
Installed via the Repository.

I am having a consistent rendering crash when trying to export a short video.
It is of a fairly high resolution, with clips at 1080p @ 24p.
To try and see where in the workflow it is crashing, I tried using still frame export, which gave me a frame number. (8952). Looking at that frame, is almost right at the end of the video. There is just a transition between two images. Thinking reading the images were correct, I tried saving them as a stripped down JPG, then a PNG to find the same problem.

Rendering has been attempted with libx264, and oggtheora.

Creating a new scene with the files at the point of the timeline that has the crash occur will have them render correctly.

Launching Openshot from the commandline, I get this
[wav @ 0xb56aaa0] max_analyze_duration reached
[wav @ 0xbd42480] max_analyze_duration reached
[wav @ 0xa4906a00] max_analyze_duration reached
[wav @ 0xa490a000] max_analyze_duration reached
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

The segmentation Fault occurs during the crash. the rest seems to be on opening the .osp scene.

Is there a more detailed logging file I could supply somewhere to help and diagnose what is wrong? I'd really love to finish rendering the project file.

This is also happening to me, A LOT. its almost a show stopper =(

Openshot works really well when making a video, whereas it used to crash quite frequently. But now, as soon as I click "Export Video" it crashes with "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" every single time.

I was last able to successfully export a video on 2013-10-13.
As a test, I tried to do "Export Video" on the same project today (2013-10-26) and it crashed, too.

I use Ubuntu 13.10. Updates are done daily.

This is a line from /var/log/syslog:

Oct 26 10:53:10 myhost kernel: [ 1484.919717] openshot[4246]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fafa09715c5 sp 00007faf50ff81f8 error 4 in libc-2.17.so[7fafa080c000+1bd000]

Here I ran it from the command line to get more info:

me@myhost:~$ openshot
