Compiled by git also applying the multibit patch. All OK. Playback and various rendering formats: all OK; except cinepak.qt which leads to a freeze. I remember it happened also with ffmpeg-4.3. The "shape wipe" transition doesn't work, I'm not sure but I think it didn't work before either. The other transitions work fine. I added the new plugins in expanders.txt; However, I think I broke the formatting of the file and it gives me a dump at startup. Going back to the previous expanders.txt gives no problems. I attach expanders-dump.txt and the dump. PS: in plugin.opts i've corrected "dresser" in "deesser". I also attach this file even though it's just a typo in one word. For Andrew, who did not see my previous email, I attach the terminal messages when I tried rendering with ffmpeg-4.4 (test.txt).
