Using avidemux_2.7.1v2.appImage downloaded from the official site.
If I try to pass a filename with spaces in it when launching from the command line, avidemux fails to open the file.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Copy any supported video file to e.g.
"/tmp/test video.mp4"2. Launch avidemux:
$ /path/to/avidemux_2.7.1v2.appImage "/tmp/test video.mp4"
Expected results:
Video loads
Actual results:
An error dialog reporting...
File Error
"/tmp/test" does not exist.
I've tried
"/tmp/test\ video.mp4",
"/tmp/test\\ video.mp4",
"/tmp/test\\\ video.mp4", and all that nets me is an increasing number of backslashes following "/tmp/test" in the error dialog. The wrapper script is impressively resilient against my efforts to convince it that spaces are its friend.
Needless to say, if the filename is
/tmp/testvideo.mp4 it opens from the command line with no problems.
