Hi I found this article about MX-17:

Kudos to the MX devs and community!

Thank you! I've been swamped lately. May you have a happy New Year!

I installed Openshot-qt from the test repo and it works great! Thank you very much!!

I have openshot-qt 2.4.1 and it's two prerequisite libraries loaded and ready to build, so it should be in the repo in a day or so. I've was messing around with the development GIMP 2.9.9~prelease in my separate Debian multimedia repo; that was a bit of a challenge for the Jessie builds, but it did...

To be honest, I didn't know there were two. I guess I mean openshot-qt because 1.4.3 has the problem with the animated titles.

Yes, I used the appimage. But I guess any Openshot v2 package is worth trying.

Never thought of that.

Hi. I'd like to request version 2.4.1 of OpenShot since version 1.4.3 (the one currently in MX-17) throws an error when rendering animated titles and the solutions online don't seem to work.

Thanks!!

That's a good idea! Future users may benefit from it, provided that it does not mean too much work for the packaging team.

I'd also like to mark this as solved, but can't seem to figure out how.

After trying several suggestions from different forums without any success, I ended up downloading version 2.4.1 from Openshot's website.

It works flawlessly!
