I am running kdenlive 21.08.2 on Opensuse Tumbleweed.

When I restart kdenlive the play mode works correctly, but at some point when working with adding clips, the play mode stops working as seen in the video above.

I think it's similar to the issue reported at https://www.reddit.com/r/kdenlive/comments/pv5iww/my_timeline_isnt_playing_when_i_press_l/ but that had no resolution that worked for me.

Have you tried this in a preview scaling of, say, 270p? 😊

Do you mean changing the "1:1" setting near the to play button in the project monitor? If so, yes. I can change it to 720p or 360p and the behavior remains unchanged.

If you mean something else, then I'm happy to try it.

No. This is exactly what I meant. Sorry that didn't work for you. However, have you tried this morning's nightly build? I've known that to fix a problem for me.

In case you don't know how to get there go to the bottom of the Download page to find the link. Or just search for Kdenlive nightly build. 🙂

Can you see if this is happening with AppImage or Flatpak? If not, then it is your distro package, which you should report to the opensuse maintainers.
