Generated clips not loading and "Auto Edit" fails after video analysis

[2nkn0w]

Hi 👋

I’ve run into an issue after uploading and analyzing a video.

Once the analysis is completed:

• The generated clips do not load or appear properly
• Trying to use the "Auto Edit" feature results in an error

What’s interesting is that some parts seem to be working correctly. For example:

• Generating subtitles works without issues

This makes me think the analysis step is completing successfully, but the actual video clip generation might be failing or not being saved/loaded correctly.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Upload a video
2. Run the analysis
3. Check generated clips → they don’t load
4. Try "Auto Edit" → error occurs

Expected behavior:

• Clips should be generated and displayed correctly
• "Auto Edit" should complete without errors

Actual behavior:

• No clips are shown or loaded
• "Auto Edit" throws an error

If you need logs or more details, I’d be happy to provide them.

PD: All this is made in https://www.openshorts.app/ while testing before hosting my own server

Thanks for your help!

Hi 👋 I am experiencing the exact same issue in my environment.
While the original poster mentioned testing on the web version (openshorts.app), I am running the project on my own localhost environment (Apple M4 Mac mini / Docker) and encountering the exact same problem.
Here are the specific details of my situation:
The video analysis (Live Analysis) completes successfully, and the clip candidates along with titles and text are generated.
However, the clip preview fails to load and remains completely black.
When I click the "Auto Edit" button, a red error message pops up in the UI saying setCompositionParams is not defined, and the process fails.
I hope this specific error message regarding setCompositionParams helps point to the root cause. Looking forward to a fix!

Hi again! Just a quick update.
I applied the fix suggested in Issue #19 (stripping # in sanitize_filename), and now the clip previews load perfectly. However, even with the previews loading correctly, clicking the "Auto Edit" button still results in the exact same setCompositionParams is not defined error.
It seems this error is completely independent of the video loading issue. Just wanted to share this to help narrow down the root cause!
