Yes.

In particular, on inspection by placing an INFO() at the start and end of the 
KdenLiveServer::veml_getFileProperties( const VEMLCmnd * cmd )

piave crashes somewhere within this method.

However :-(

I have checked that s1 is non-null (it is)
I have checked that s1 returns a valid length() (it does)

I have checked that Global::fps is non-0 (it is)

In adding that final INFO() to check Global:fps, piave doesn't crash - but it 
does not return any XML communication to kdenlive either.

So this is probably a memory corruption bug.

I'll keep looking.

Cheers,
Jason
