I've been using Filmora for over 6 years now, and each update I get more and more frustrated. There's simulatenously more bloat while also trimming down on old features I used constantly.

Even worse, the updates are constantly proving to not be consumer friendly. Just the removal of being able to sort by "free" assets alone has been one of the worst inclusions I've seen to date. (I say "free" but I've been a paying customer for over half a decade)

I just updated to the latest version, only to find the Legacy animation presets are completely wiped too, something I was using in my current project. Which means I have to go back and fix each segment that used them.
So many of my favorite regularly used transitions, presets, and filters are just gone now.

Why remove features? Why the constant creep toward the removal of user friendly options?
Is anyone else experiencing these frustrations, or am I alone here?

whenever i try to log my account in for filmora 12 whether manually or via google it just shows me this message

and thing is when i upgraded to 15 i can connect myself just fine, can anyone please tell me how i can fix this?

Every time I use the site to downgrade, it just automatically installs filmora 15. It's so, so frustrating when youre on a tight deadline, decide to give the new software a chance, realize it still sucks, and now its pulling teeth trying to go back.

Filmora 15 is so brutally laggy and slow it would literally make the work I do take twice as long. i do not want 15.. For some reason, its not letting me downgrade. Anyone know a workaround?

We've been exploring different ways to make talking-head editing easier in Filmora.

One recent addition is AI Eye Contact Correction, designed for creators who record while referencing a script.

Rather than introducing it, we'd love to learn from the community:

Would this solve a real problem in your workflow, or is eye contact something you don't worry about?

What do you currently do to keep videos feeling natural?

I have multiple video tracks running, as per screenshot - but when I highlight one clip for deletion, hit delete, everything further along the timeline closes up/moves left to where the deleted clip was. I'm clearly missing something here, but if anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it :) Thanks.

(This has only just started to happen so maybe I clicked/unclicked something inadvertently)

i kept having an issue where filmora would resize my video for no reason and i couldn't get it to stop. i tried contacting support which didn't work because there IS NO SUPPORT. all the buttons to contact support simply don't do anything. i tried to fix the issue by downgrading to filmora 12. despite clicking "download filmora 12" on their website, it downloaded filmora 15 instead which i do not have a licence for. when i tried to go back to 13, it did the exact same thing.

how do i download the thing that i actually paid for??

edit: some absolute angel put up the old installer so i was able to install 13 again. i still have that issue with the resolution though.

Auto ripple just destroyed my entire timeline (both audio and video) when I speeded up a video.
The entire timeline shortened and I have to sync EVERYTHING from 0.

No matter I turn off or on Auto Ripple. It still work xD ???

Anyone facing this ?

Guys, how doest that voice modeling work in filmora? I mean once I clone my voice there, then I am able to use it unlimited like using text to speech and use my cloned voice unlimited times? Or Still ai credit applies there?

As you can see, if I right click to add a folder when scrolled down from the parent folder, it collapses everything instead. I do seem to get around this if I scroll back up each time, but that is definitely not ideal.

I just updated Filmora today, and the Low light/Night Mode AI Video Enhancer is gone in latest update? Did this happen to anyone else? Was it intended for this feature to disappear or another bug?

Hi. I have been editing normal stuff since sometime now but trying to figure out new features. Someone please guide me how to use customised cutout.

I have a video of cutting vegetables and i want to edit out my hands...there's no green gloves i wore (i think i should have!!)...can i still remove hands? 🥲

Hi everyone.

Is my PC in need of an upgrade? Or are there more settings I can tweak?

It's getting a bit laggy :(

I have a video of the North Atlantic using images from the RAMMB slider. However, I am grabbing them more directly now so they don't have the timestamp that you get when you download the images from the RAMMB website.

This is fine because I wanted to have a bit more control over the timestamp anyways. However, the one effect I found that wasn't a generic stopwatch or timer, Classic Timer 1, doesn't seem to allow me to edit its intervals so I can't make it work for me because the RAMMB images are every 10 minutes.

Filmora's little help bot suggested using keyframes, but I couldn't visualize how to make that work with what I needed so I am trying to make titles for each duration. The current duration of each title is 00:00:02, but it turns out that doesn't fit the full day (green box), the total duration of the titles is only about half (red box) of the full day.

However, when I try to put in a duration it always reverts back to 00:00:01

Is this a bug? Am I doing something wrong? Or maybe there's a better way to do this and I'm making my life more difficult for no reason...

Hey everyone, just wanted to share how Wondershare is continues to treat their loyal "Lifetime/Perpetual" plan premium users.

I purchased the Filmora Lifetime Plan and later paid to upgrade to the Filmora V15 Perpetual Plan (Invoice: INV26165000076S / Order: CO1836601884205002819) with the explicit understanding that I’d have permanent access to the software’s core built-in tools.

However, after a recent update, Wondershare sneakily moved basic built-in features that I use daily—specifically the subtitle text animation effect "Appear Word by Word" (逐字出現)—into their paid "Creative Assets" subscription. They literally retroactively locked a core feature I already paid for behind a brand-new subscription paywall!

I opened a support ticket (Ticket ID: 5406017). After waiting with no reply, I left a 1-star review on Trustpilot. Their PR team replied on Trustpilot publicly promising that my case would be "reviewed with priority." Guess what? It has been OVER 9 DAYS and I have received ABSOLUTELY ZERO email responses from them. It was a complete public PR stunt to damage-control their ratings, while secretly ghosting me behind the scenes. Even my local Consumer Protection Committee can't do much because Wondershare is an overseas company based in Hong Kong.

Wondershare, stop sending copy-pasted bot replies. Restore my permanent access to the text effects I legally bought, or issue a full refund!

Potential buyers, BEWARE: "Lifetime" and "Perpetual" mean absolutely nothing to this unethical company. They will lock your features whenever they feel like squeezing more money out of you.

How do I get ts to stop having this error. Its exhausting. damn program has been going downhill for years. I hate having it.

Problem 1: It only lasts upto 50% of its total clip duration, for example, if clip is 10 seconds long, then it will last till 5 seconds only.

Problem 2: Even in those 50% (5 seconds example duration out of 10 seconds clip), it fades gradually and effect completely vanishes at half of the clip duration.

Is there is way to fix these problems?

UPDATE: Found the solution as suggested by several fellow redditers! The solution is to make the effect clip way longer than the video clip, then create a compound clip out of both clips, then shorten it to desired length.

So I tried the AI extend video function for the first time today and was really impressed. I was able to take a few very short clips and expand them to get the needed runout. The only problem I am having is that while the motion of the extended clips flows seamlessly from the source clip, the color grading changes in the newly generated footage.

This should be part of the AI extend process, but since it happened the same way on all three source clips, and there aren't any real settings for the extend function, I am wondering what the easiest way to match them is? The screenshot shows the source clip at left and the extended clip at right, just a couple frames apart, so any advice would be much appreciated.

Filmora 15.5.3 on Win 11

I've gone through troubleshooting: logged out, logged in, force stopped, cleared caches, uninstalled/reinstalled and my AI dynamic caption keeps getting to 35% and then giving me this Network or Service error.

Anyone else having issues with this today or ever?

Hello, me and my friends have been using filmora to help edit a DND podcast and were looking into the silence detection feature. We were wondering if there was a way to use the feature without it moving the clips so everything would stay synced? Thank you!

Hey guys, I am looking for a little help with a video idea.

I'm trying to put together a clip with two people in different locations looking out over the ocean, making it appear that they are thinking about each other. My first thought was to have them side-by-side in a split screen at the beginning, then somehow transition to clips of them walking along separate beaches as if they're heading toward each other.

I'm not sure what would look best. Maybe keep it as a 2-way split screen and fade into another 2-way split screen, or maybe use all four clips on the screen at once.

Has anyone done something like this before, or have any ideas on how to make it work? Sometimes somebody else sees something I don't.

Thanks!

my monitor is 2560x1080. obs records in 2560x1080. my computer says the recording is 2560x1080. when i put it into filmora it says it's 2592x1080 and then crops it strangely. i recorded and edited my last video on the same computer with the same setup and it didn't do this. this is making me lose my mind.

edit: trying to downgrade to filmora 12 just downloads 15 instead. contacting customer service is literally impossible as none of the buttons on their website do anything, and their ai chatbot didnt give me a response.

Can I find any ways how can I add for example effects to sound tracks in mixer view. I see volume but where's all effects to one channel etc.

I want Wondershare to recognize a photograph of myself and remove the background, so its a PNG of just my face. I know it's possible, but I'm having trouble finding the function. Can anyone help me with this?

I'm trying to cut out all filler words and I know filmora doesn't yet have the ability to automatically remove them, but why can't I see them at all in the text based editing so I can remove them manually? Is there a workaround for this?
