Description
Shotcut version 20.10.31
If you delete (usually accidentally) original clips from transition, revert them back and save project. Project becomes broken and transition too. There is no way to fix it legally only with some magic.
Bug exists in all Shotcut versions for long time.
I already have had several seriously broken projects.
And only now I've figured out how to reproduce it 100%.

Trace how the transition and project are saved, and consider the issue done when the restored project opens without a blank or broken transition.
