Comment 42 for bug 722285

I am now working on a long project (2 hours), made itself of long video-clips ("rushes" of around 30 min each), which I chop into shorter clips on the tracks. I am using 1.4.2 with Joseph Eoff's patch.

Here are few abnormal behaviors:
1. When right- clicking on a clip on a track and choosing "properties", the play-head goes to position 0 (as soon as the properties window pops up, before doing anything)
2. Same behavior when "saving as"
3. Most actions take very long to complete (around 1 minute for most of them), with the screen turning gray.

Since I used neither the "classical" version (provided by Ubuntu or Canonical repositories) nor the non-patched 1.4.2 version on long projects and long imported video-clips, I don't know if this is due to 1.4.2, to Joseph's patch, or to the fact that both the project and the material it deals with are unusually long.
