Bug Description

First, I encounter a bug where after creating a new project from an existing one, I can no longer drag clips through time. So I close the app and reopen to fix it, but the process doesn't stop. Realized this after I completely ran out of memory and computer froze. Checked it out, indeed the process stays open and holds a lot of memory, so I had a long video in memory like 7 times.

64bit Ubuntu 14.04
Installed through Software Center
OpenShot Version1.4.3
