The LiVES translation in Launchpad [1] seems to be outdated/unused (at least for the German language: 2116 untranslated strings). I can't find the string »Eine unzul…« shown in the screenshot.

Anyway this issue looks like an i18n problem within LiVES itself. The project is maintained by Salsaman [2] at Sourceforge [3]. LiVES bugs are maintained there [4].

If agreed, we should rise the issue in the SourceForge bug tracker or contact Salsaman. Any other ideas?
