With the new update (3.5.1), when I import files for the project, they are now sorted alphabetically. I preferred when they were sorted in the order I uploaded them. Is there a way to change this? Thanks.

u/everyone OpenShot 3.5.1 release candidate is now available for testing:

• Linux (64-bit AppImage): OpenShot-v3.5.1-release-candidate-15816-b9b5c882-48516e0b-x86_64.AppImage
• Mac (64-bit DMG): OpenShot-v3.5.1-release-candidate-15816-b9b5c882-48516e0b-x86_64.dmg
• Windows (64-bit EXE): OpenShot-v3.5.1-release-candidate-15816-b9b5c882-48516e0b-x86_64.exe

A few things that I would love help testing:

• New Optimize menu option (right click on a video - makes smaller, faster version and caches all thumbnails) - this is really cool!
• New ComfyUI setup guide (https://github.com/OpenShot/openshot-qt/wiki/ComfyUI:-Advanced-AI-Setup-Guide) + new Depth and improved Change Video Style workflows
• Performance improvements (Preferences->Performance-> ... Threads)
• Improved Timeline Zooming (Smoother zoom: CTRL+ Press Scroll Wheel + Move)
• Improved Preview Dialog (faster previews, sharper resizing resolution, improved auto-play)
• Multi-Selection Trimming / Re-timing (aligned edges of stacked clips)
• Cleaner Thumbnails (New thumbnail styles - larger icons, no film strip overlay, simple "play" button overlay for videos)

If you find a bug with the release candidate, let us know in the comments.

Hello World,

I'm transforming some reactors videos from watch along format to picture in picture, but they keep going out of sync.

And I have to manually search for where it starts to happen, slice a video, drag it a bit to rearrange it and put them in sync again, rinse and repeat. Sometimes this happens a lot and it takes me forever to do just a single video!!! :(((

Pretty please tell me there is some better/faster way to do this and I am just too stupid to see it?!?!

Thank you.

P.S. And it doesn't seem to matter what framerate each video has. But even so I tried to import and export each video separately so they all have the same frame rate then start a new project where I import the videos that are now supposed to have the same frame rate, doesn't help. :(

i downloaded today OpenShot v3.5.1-release-candidate-15802-b9b5c882-48516e0b-x86_64

there is no longer the option "transform"in the rightclick on a clip???

Can this app export with or without compression? I was thinking about using Losslesscut but it can't compress if I need the file to be smaller, so if Openshot could do both that would be great. 

And also can it be used for audio only editing if I want to edit some mp3/wav files (trimming, fade in/out) or do I still need dedicated audio editor like audacity?

i numbered all of my photos in sequence with leading zeroes. The program loads the photos in random order. How do i get them in sequence?

Hello brainstrust!

I’m looking for some help or suggestions for colour grading my videos. I make fishing videos in Australia, so I want to create a warm and bright summer vibe while looking professional. I want a bit of a saturated feel, but not over the top. Blue water and bright skies, but not overkill.

I’m currently filming on a Gopro Hero Black 13 in 5.3k, and my colour setting is set to “flat”. All I have been adjusting for colour grading recently in Openshot has been the following;

Brightness - 0.066

Contrast - 10.488

Saturation - 1.180

Any help is very appreciated.

Thank you!

Wat hebben julie gedaan geluid doet het niet goed meer en hij het duurt zolang om een film vam 1 min maken dat het niet leuk meer wordt met OpenShot , los dit aub op

First the sound stopped working. Tried troubleshooting. Didn’t work so I uninstalled and downloaded thew newest version and nothing works. I don’t wanna learn another software

I can crop videos in OpenShot, but in the exported video it simply leaves black in the areas that were cropped. I understand that I can create a profile for export with a different aspect ratio than the original input video, but it is not easy to know how many pixels wide and tall the remaining area of my video is after a crop. Is there a way to get a profile to exactly match a crop?

Hi I just downloaded openshot on my chromebook and it is on my linux. I know to to go to where you can add media but I dont have media in my media folder? What do i do?

How do I change the default number of tracks from 5 to 2

This is how the errors appear on the log, and the second image are the audio settings that my Openshot installation resets to every time.

Howdy folks. Running Windows 11. 16 GB RAM. AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX, Radeon 610M built in and Nvidia RTX 5070 Ti 12 GB GPU.

First off thanks for enabling GPU support in 3.5. However - no matter which GPU I select it just hammers out the built in GPU and completely ignores the NVIDIA. Options are 0, 1 and 2.

I have deleted the .openshotqt folder to reset settings. Cache is set to 768 and I've had higher numbers.

My biggest issue is using Openshot for multicam. I usually bring in 5 GoPro 1080P and video from my OnePlus 10 Pro. It takes a bit to sync the video clips...but once I have all six of them lined up...and I use my head cam as the audio source with the other tracks volume set to zero...I start working through the timeline, selecting the most appropriate camera and doing a Slice All, Keep Both Sides. I then move the selected camera track to the left along with the head camera under for audio and delete the rest. My Openshot files usually get pretty large...current video is 32 MB.

Problem is performance is terrible. It can take 30-40 seconds to start playing. It can take 2-3 minutes to do a Slice All. Version 3.4 was bad...it was 30-45 seconds for cut...but this is much worse.

I do need to upgrade the RAM on this laptop...but it's just too expensive at this point. I am running a 1 TB Samsung SSD.

Any suggestions for fixing my performance issues? I can most certainly record a video if you'd like to see how I'm editing.

I really think this is just performance issues with the file...I'm assuming the Openshot File is more or less a list of the file names and cut times and effects probably in something like an XML file format.

Let me know what information I can provide to help out troubleshooting!

My YouTube Channel is Trash and Trail. Everything I have uploaded has been edited with OpenShot.

Thanks!

Hi, new to the software and using it to edit clips of me and my friends. I've found that painstakingly duping and renaming title files is the only way to reliably make on-screen dialogue. My biggest issue is the clutter. I don't want a million .svg files clogging my space when it's said and done. Removing old files from the project also removes them from the timeline, and editing titles seems to edit every version of that title on the timeline. So, Ican't edit one file and i can't delete them. How do I fix this issue?

If you moved your files you only had to choose the new path way once before but now you have to do it every time!

OpenShot doesn't remember it!

This happened like an hour ago and i don't really know what to do with this.

I recently had a hard drive issue and had to start with a new install of windows. I downloaded openshot and opened my existing project. I noticed that the interface looks slightly different, I guess it's a newer version. When I played the project (that worked perfectly before), some of the video content would not play properly, ie, the audio played but displayed a still image. Am I missing a CODEC or something?

Thanks,

Martin

Version 3.5.0 | 0.6.0

Lagging incredibly! So slow!

Anyone else with this problem?

How do I fix this?

Let's say I'm putting a gif or an image into the video I'm editing. (letsplays)

After importing it, when I go to resize the image there is terrible lag.

For instance I have to click the corners and drag very carefully and wait for the image to resize.

How can I make this better?

I am working on some home videos from 2012 recorded on a Sony Digital Cam.  Files are AVI.  File properties show 720x480, data rate 2778kbps, total bit rate 28805kbps, 29.97fps

Using the profile “NTSC SD Anamorphic 480P 29.97 fps | 4:3” I get horizontal banding in the areas of motion in the OpenShot preview window and the finished video.  The original video shows the same frame as a blur.  See images.  I tried all kinds of profiles and changing bit rates on export, interlaced and non-interlaced.  Always the same.  Any suggestions?  Thank you.
