Ah, I think I know what is causing this. Are you still running piave from a 
seperate console? You can still do this, but Kdenlive is now running *3* 
instances of piave. They are allocated the following ports :

6100 : Document renderer - handles requests for file lengths, and exporting.
6101 : Workplace Monitor - Displays and previews the complete timeline.
6102 : Clip Monitor - Handles the display of a single clip, including for 
resizing on the timeline.

Whilst all renderers will be asked for their capabilities, only the workplace 
and clip monitor actually get an create window request - the document 
renderer is for background tasks only.

If this setup changes, I'll let you know. In the meantime, start piave with 
the relevant port to test whichever window you want to test.

Compiling now, thanks that should help me to put together the "loading" code 
for the dialogs, rather than hand-coding an example ;-)

have had chance to study it a little.
