Re: Shotcut: Free, open source, cross-platform video editor
#2I've used this on the Mac and it is good enough for me - putting titles on videos before uploading to YouTube (I sometimes do a video of playing an instrument).
It is better than iMovie in this regard because it doesn't require copying the giant file into some "project" directory like iMovie seems to.

#3Please could you make the Linux version easier to consume? Either a deb/rpm package and perhaps a docker image? :)
At the moment, it is pretty unclear of the exact install process!

There is a snap package, does that not work for you?

#5On the free, closs-platform video editor side of things (-open source) Da Vinci is worth a look or two as well.
Kdenlive is another foss editor based on MLT, like Shotcut.

Da Vinci just crashes for me, over and over. Its been one of the least stable apps I've ever encountered .. so, ymmv.

If you're on Linux, this is probably caused by the graphics drivers.

Consumer cameras generally record video to h.264, which DaVinci Resolve doesn't read on Linux. So that's a deal breaker for me. Which is a shame as it seems like an extremely capable app (if you're not a FOSS purist).

OpenShot https://www.openshot.org/ is also worth a "shot" haha...

#10I used it recently to edit large video files around around 1h 1080p; Shotcut is rather slow and freezes often when editing big files. But nonetheless its a great project and I hope it will improve in the future.
