Ruslan Popov had the same issue a few months ago. It somehow seemed related to 
libdv. What you can do is to tell MLT to load *.avi clips with libavformat 
(ffmpeg) instead of libdv, and see if it fixes your problem.

Edit the file: 
/usr/local/share/mlt/modules/fezzik.dict

You will find a line looking like:
*.avi=mcdv,libdv,avformat

Change it to:
*.avi=avformat

Save the file and start Kdenlive to see if it does change something...

Let me know.
