Smartcut is completely broken, freezes on save

[cyberpunkrocker-zero]

vidcutter-6.0.5.1 on Arch Linux is broken.

When Smartcut is enabled, vidcutter freezes on saving the clip(s). which renders the whole application useless, because the 'non-smart-cut' cuts the clips in completely wrong places, and the resulting clips cannot be trimmed to correct size because... the Smartcut cannot be enabled...

There's no sensible use for vidcutter as it is now, until this is fixed.

Ive noticed it as well and it happens on some videos but not all. Since the GUI isnt giving a clue i open vidcutter from a terminal so i can spot the error message when it happens.
I dont think that project is maintained anyway so we have to find another tool.

I can confirm freezing for a few minutes when saving also happens on Windows 11.

Self promo, but check out https://github.com/skeskinen/transcribing-video-cutter for a working smartcut for h264 files. Project is still pretty new so there might be issues, but I have a bunch of automated tests to show that the smartcutting should work.
