[multimedia/kdenlive] audio bugs - missing audio plugins, waveforms and crashes

[Joachim Moskalewski]

Hello,

first: There's a user in the official forum saying one of those bugs
belong to Shortcut, too:

https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/sound-waves-are-not-displayed-on-kdenlive-and-shotcut-fade-in-and-fade-out-close-the-application.82916/

Also I've already written a bug report a few days ago (but I'm unsure
if that reaches someone, so I'm using the port maintainer mail address
now…):
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=262876


1) crash
Kdenlive crahses if you're click the fadein or fadout button in the
timeline; Both functions worked in December if you're using them from
the menubar (today: unavailable). It crashes with one of these messages:

  Unknown transition "fadein"
  Unknown transition "fadeout"


2) audio waveforms
I don't know when they disappeared, but you should see audio waveforms
in audio tracks inside the timeline.

This bug belongs to Shortcut, too - so I assume that this belongs to a
library used from both to display those waveforms. But I have no clue
which one that could be…


3) audio level meter
There should be an overall volume meter below the project monitor that
informed about the downmixed audio level; It's gone.


That was December 2021. Things getting worse since then:


4) almost all plugins related to audio are now gone
Starting Kdenlive by command line complains about 75 (!) missing plugins
like "volume", "avfilter.volume" and so on. Done a lot of tests over
the last days, and even compiling it without using ports and installing
it in a users HOME: It compiles fine, but the result is the same.

I've checked sox, mlt7, swhplugins, ladspa etc. - all settings seemed to
be fine. I even compiled all 1.000 packages I have installed again - of
course with an up to date ports tree on an up to date FreeBSD
13.0-RELEASE-p10 (amd64).


Thanks or your work on this port!


Ciao,
:) Jo
