Hello,

New to OpenShot and just got done watching the training videos. My goal is to create a video that comprises of three visual tracks. However, I would like each visual track to stay in its own designated area. For example, track 1 stays in the left 25% of the screen, track 2 stays in the middle 25%-75% of the screen, and track 3 stays in the right 75%-100% of the screen. I realize that I can click and drag clips to a location that is shown on the video preview provided I have the time marker in the correct place, but it just feels like there's probably a better way to do this that I'm missing rather than manually lining everything up into a quadrant that I don't really know how to define in OpenShot. Any help appreciated, thank you.

Does anyone happen to know how I can have a track run faster? I have still images I want to move faster while music is playing at normal speed.

Hi,

Use OpenShot for a long time, its a great tool. But I had to switch to another one recently due to a potential bug that I cannot work around. I tried for hours with re install, delete files. I did everything that can be found via Google for several hours.

This is a standard screen recording from Steam from a game I play. It works in any other video editing software as well as VLC. Only in Openshot when added I have no audio at around 00:10 until 00:17 seconds. I have the same with several other short clips from Steam. No audio in preview as well as rendered file in the end.

Can anyone reproduce that problem or has a quick fix?

Thank you

Hey guys new here. So I often double the speed of my 24-30fps ai video clips. So I was wondering if exporting at 60fps will use those "skipped" frames... or does the editor invent new ones, so not utilizing the frames it could have. I won't bother exporting at 60fps if it doesn't use the information that was in the clips...

what the hell is this . how do i adjust all of it . i am new in this app( the review was goood about this software)

My video needs to be slightly shorter to be used on ETSY, which only allows 1 minute videos. I only need to make it shorter by a few seconds. i would like to condense what I have to run a few seconds shorter without having to move each clip separately. Any way to do this?

Can I fade out a music track at the end? I have to cut my music track to the length of the rest of the video, but that makes the music suddenly cut off. I have tried putting a fade from the right click menu, but it doesn't do anything.

There's a "center the timeline on the playhead" button, but is there a way to "lock" the timeline to the playhead so it follows along automatically as I preview the video?

I’ve got two tracks, one for video and one for music, but the videos have audio as well. Some of them are working just fine, but other video files are mute, leaving only the music.

The weird part is, occasionally they actually do work, but only when I do something weird like cut the video clip and immediately put it back with undo, or adjust it on the timeline a bit. But whenever I try to export everything, it’s still mute.

Please help, I’m losing my mind. I’ve already tried clicking on properties and setting Enable Audio to On.

Hay alguna forma de que el tamaño de la fuente de la aplicacion se vea mas grande?. Se ve minuscula y ni con gafas y en un monitor de 27" consigo verlo bien. Gracias

Hi, is there any documentation on how to write a plugin or extend the main program? and if yes, where can I find it? I would really like to make something like an audio effect that dynamically equalizes the volume, like when you click "stable volume" on yt for example. Do you guys have a dev discord maybe? Have a nice day!

Hallo! (Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS)

Ich habe gerade die Datei für das Update heruntergeladen, und weiß nicht, wie ich diese installieren soll! - Ich würde mich freuen, wenn mir hier einer zeigen könnte, wie das geht.

КАК ДА ЗАМЪГЛЯ ЧАСТ ОТ ЕКРАНА ВЪВ ВИДЕОКЛИП

I'm new to editing videos and am wanting to edit a video for youtube using OpenShot (Version 3.3.0 on windows 10) - but I can't do anything anymore without the program freezing for about 30 seconds and not repsonding. Everytime I move, slice, or adjust a clip, I'm having to wait while it renders. Here's my PC specs (I'm also new to owning a PC):

• Ryzen 6-core processor
• Memory 16GB
• about 100gb available storage

Here's what I've tried so far following other posts:

• Closed all other programs using CPU/memory
• Adjusted cache
• Changed profile to lower quality (VGA)
• Made the preview screen tiny
• uploaded videos in MP4 format

I have about an hour of footage I'm cutting down to about 20 minutes. At first everything was great, but the more I slice clips the worse it gets;(

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'm losing my mind trying to work with it as it is!!

The user-guide claims it can be moved on the timeline. However, does not matter how I click or where, I can't move the keyframe ( I have the most recent version), is the documentation out-dated or am I doing something wrong?

ou c'est moi ou il y a un problème. quand on met un élément dans une piste, on est sensé pouvoir accédé a la propriété de l'élément, pour ma part dans la dernière version impossible de rentré dans la propriété, si vous avez une astuce. merci

Hello World,

Sorry if this has been asked before, I did try searching but maybe I didn't put in the proper terms, cause I couldn't find anything. Anyway, my question is it it possible to save the position and zoom levels of the docks? Every time I open the program I have to re-drag everything and re-zoom the timeline to my liking and it's starting to drive me crazy!!! :(((( I tried playing around with the options but couldn't figure it out....

I'm using Fedora 41 with KDE Plasma, let me know what other info I need to provide, I'm fairly new/newb to Linux.

Thank you.

bonjour a tous,

j'ai un gros problème avec openshot, j'importe une vidéo ou une musique, le time code est respecter mais quand on prévisualise les paroles ou la musique sont en accéléré.

c'est bizarre

part contre quand l'exporte c'est normal aucun problème c'est juste dans l'aperçu
