Gpx file cant be read from network location (WIN)

Bug

  • What is your operating system?

Windows 11 Pro 25H2

  • What is your Shotcut version (see Help > About Shotcut)?

26.4.30

  • Can you repeat the problem? If so, what are the steps?

Add filter GPX Graphic from network path, such as \\192.168.1.100\video\somefile.gpx

fails with

[Warning] [filter gpsgraphic] “/video/somefile.gpx” qxml_parse_file couldn’t read file: /video/somefile.gpx

Shotcut clearly ignores the \\192.168.1.100 and fails to load. The same file can be loaded when stored on local drive.

(Videos can be processed from network drive, but not gpx files)

A workaround is to map a drive letter.

This is fixed for the next version 26.6

Thank you! I noticed that property name=“resource” of the filter does not store full path of the gpx file (even for local paths), which is maybe the issue. Adding drive letter is not feasible for me, my workaround is to modify .mlt file directly and adding full path. Having full path in the property name=“resource” seems as best option to resolve this.
