If it had VST support I could use it instead of DaVinci Resolve.

If you publish to platforms like YT, DaVinci Resolve can actually prepare your audio so it remains intact during their compression shenanigans.

I don't know of any FOSS programs that can automatically handle it cleanly. =3

I am quite familiar with Resolve..I am not a pro, and it's probably totally overload for my purpose, but I think it's easy to learn and even quite intuitive

I tried many others, but mostly all others are not stable enough or have an even worse UI/UX... so I wonder... is this different?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

That was the first question that popped into my head as well. We’re now in the age of “AI all the things,” so it seems like every app needs an API or CLI of some sort. Everything needs to be machine accessible.

shouldn't we focus on human accessibility first? it also makes things more "machine accessible" as a byproduct, but at least humans remain the main focus also, openshot is foss. can't you just give the source code to your clanker and let it mod itself in the app?

This is the big question for designers, how much of the future of software will be human-oriented UIs vs a human typing into a chat window (or as a temporary bridge, telling an agent to operate existing GUIs).

For now I believe agent-driven software is still pretty niche, something for highly technical users, but that will change as it mainstreams. Early adopters demand early adopter software features.

How does this compare to After Effects, Premiere Pro, and Davinci Resolve? I am pretty sure, this thing solves half of the problems the above solve, and it does it half-good.

What makes you pretty sure?
