I'm seeing the same: very often (pretty much guaranteed after just a couple cuts and moves when using AVI files of about 20-200 MB size, although I couldn't reproduce it with an .avi file of just ~7.8 MB size) it crashes with a segfault after having printed (at least the time when I captured this particular output):
*** Error in `/usr/bin/python': corrupted double-linked list: 0x00007fffa0305b90 ***
More details about my configuration (openshot, library, OS version) plus backtrace see attached file.
The segfault does *not* seem to happen when editing a (2.5 GB) .mpeg file that was written by OpenShot (it was created by merging together a .ogg sound file that was generated by oggenc and a .dvd video file that was generated by mencoder tv:// ... -nosound), but happens unavoidably when editing .avi files that were generated directly by mencoder tv:// with sound. I think the mencoder command line for the latter was (sans the newlines):
Would it help to use matroska instead of avi? (I'll have to upgrade mencoder to try that.)
I tested the video file that I used most to test the crashes with ffplay (left and right arrow works fine), melt (h and l work fine), and:

Should I use matroska instead of avi, or should I install some other, bleeding edge, OS? Or mpeg? (I didn't manage to get both sound and video in the same mpeg video file directly from mencoder, but perhaps newer versions of mencoder would do? Or does the mpeg work just because OpenShot generated it itself?)

BTW here's the GUI program that I wrote to record the video files, from old video tapes: https:/ /github. com/pflanze/ recordvideo
