Short description of error

When you duplicate a sound strip and change the path/file it change all occurences of the strip.
Note: work weel with a video strip.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

open new file / scene
Change to video editing
add a sound strip
select a sound file 1
duplicate strip 1 to strip 2 (note the strip name and path in the sequencer are same)
select only the duplicated strip 2
change is path/file (SoundSequence.filepath) to a sound file 2
All the strip filepath are changing in the sequencer
- If you play the sequence, you have the same sound
- if you look at the name in the sequencer, there are the same
- if you look at Properties file path of the strip 1 they are differents and respect the change.
If you cut the strip in a lot of other strips, and change the file path of one, all others change too.

Thanks for reading.

Uhhhh… That’s totally broken, what happens here is that soundstrip actually reference a sound datablock, so, as with any datablock, when you copy the user, the ID itself is not copied, just referenced once more. To be clear: both copies share the same audio data.

Now, when you edit the filepath, you actually edit the audio ID file path (in addition to the strip one), so you change all strips using that same audio datablock...

Think RNA should make a copy fo the ID first, in that specific case (that, or the UI should show a real IDselect widget, not a mere file path selector...).

@Sergey, @Psy-Fi, have thoughts here?
