No output XML at all about auto-editor HOT 3 CLOSED

Also, when I used it to export as a media file, it did not output any file at all, although it did leave the console window open longer, long enough for me to see it running through the frames with FFMPEG. But it still left no file in my filesystem.

I tried moving the app folder elsewhere (shorter pathname) and even tried putting the mp4 files in the auto-edit app folder. Nothing. I can edit and preview the video in the app, but there is never any output.

I also tried running the APP as admin, but still no dice.

Again, the command line auto-editor works perfectly.

I wish I read your second comment sooner since I spent a good bit time looking at the xml output on window to see if there any problems. Now I know that the xml export is fine but I have no clue what the real root issue is. Oh well, maybe rewriting some component will fix this in the future at some point.
(You video looks like it has nothing out of the ordinary)

Also, thoughtfully responding to all your issues takes time away from actually fixing app bugs. In the future, I would like for you to just privately email me.

So, just for fun, I attempted to use the .14 version instead of .17 of the app.

This time, it shut down when I went to the open file dialog. A couple of seconds later, I got a notification from Windows Defender saying it was sending the file for analysis. This got me thinkin, so I checked in my Avast antivirus log, and it turns out it was raising red flags there, too. But I have my Avast set on silent mode since it's got lots of annoying pop-ups all the time. It didn't quarantine it, but apparently it was ringing bells.

So I disabled Windows Defender and set an exception for both the .14 and .17 folders, and located the MP4 file both inside and outside those folders, and both versions output the XML and media files perfectly.

So now, I guess the next question is, what is triggering antivirus with this app? Is there a solution to that?
