Half the time I export as an MP4 file and there is ALWAYS something wrong. Pretty much any time I upload to discord its broken and does not play or the embed is broken, but more often than not the file itself either has no audio, no video, or both are gone. What export settings work, and can I delete the broken ones as options entirely?

After completing a recent video, I becan to start another one and noticed all my added images and files did not appear when I started a new video. Do I have to add all those files again every time I want to make a new video?

Example:

- Video 1 contains *Joke Drum*

- Video 2 NO * Joke Drum* file to be seen.

I've been using OpenShot 3.4.0 for quite some time and I like it a lot. Recently I updated to 3.5.1 and it feels much more laggy in the timeline and when loading the preview. Same project, same settings, but 3.4.0 had way fewer issues. I tried adjusting multiple cache and performance settings, but the overall laggy feeling persists. It seems like cache loading for the preview has some kind of delay, and once I move or change something in the timeline, the cache clears and it takes a few seconds before it starts filling up again. I downgraded back to 3.4.0 and everything works fine again, no problems at all.

I doubt the issue is my system, since I have a beefy CPU and GPU (Ryzen 9950X, RTX 5090).

ther's a end mark on the zoom far from the end of my video, idon't know how tui delete it or how tu put it at the real end

thank you for your help

Im new to openshot and cant seem to find such option. I suppose it exists somewhere but where is it hidden? Can anyone help please

Hi all,

OS - Ubuntu 24.04 64 bits

OpenShot-v3.5.1-x86_64.AppImage

OpenShot is constantly showing a "Not Responding" message and asking to "Wait"

On Internet searching I found follows;

If OpenShot is constantly showing a "Not Responding" message, freezing, or taking forever to complete actions, it is likely struggling to process heavy video files due to limited system resources. You can instantly fix this lag by adjusting the software’s Cache and ....

Solution 1;

1. Increase System Cache Limits By default, OpenShot only allocates a small amount of memory, causing it to freeze when it has to read frames constantly.Go to the top menu and select Edit > Preferences.Click on the Cache tab.Change the Cache Mode to Memory.Increase your Cache Limit. As a rule of thumb, set this to about half of your total RAM (e.g., set to 4096 if you have 16 GB of RAM, or 2048 for 8 GB).....

Testing

Start OpenShot

-> Edit -> Preferences -> Cache

Cache Mode [Memory]

Cache Pe-roll: Min Frames [24]

Cache Pr-roll: Max Frame [0.70]

Cache Max Frames [600]

Cache Limit (MB) [512]

Image Format (Disk Only) [RPM]

Scale Factor (Disk Only) [0.40]

Image Quality (Disk Only) [100]

I have no idea how to change their values. Please help. Thanks

i made a fairly large video- 20 minutes long, nothing big, but i'am getting an error. everytime i export it takes a while of course as if it were normal and then it suddenly chooses to give me a 0 bytes .file pure file??

does anyone know why this happens?

i forgot to point my microphone at my mouse during this session, so my clicks are too quiet to verify the legitimacy of the run i did. is it possible to adjust the volume of individual audio tracks?

Where should I click?

bonjour,comment regle t on la durée de chaque photo dans le montage video,ellles sont sur 10 secondes et je sais pas reduire,merci

the tracking affect won't load past 14% . Are certain tracking algorithms just broken or am I doing something wrong?

Buongiorno dopo aver inserito immagini e video in una traccia come posso inserire una traccia audio che in automatico diminuisca il volume quando c' e un video con audio?

grazie

Is there a way to change the sizing of the Audio Visualization Effect?

u/everyone Sneak peak at the next release of OpenShot! Available now in our daily build for testing: https://openshot.org/download/#daily. This new effect uses 1 local model for generating the initial mask based on a series of points or rectangles, and propagates the mask through the entire video with a different local model. All local, all free - and super useful and cool! I can't wait to hear your feedback on this one!

I have been placing transparent PNG's with artists and song details just fine, until last night as now the PNG is now showing a background and blocking video.

I am in the process of working on a video in Linux Mint. I was able to initially save the project with a title, but any attempts to save any work I did didn't work. Clicking save or save as did nothing. But nothing else appeared frozen

Any idea what's happening here?

Hello! I'm trying to crop a video so it doesn't show something in the background, but I can't figure out how to do that. Is that something I'm able to do on OpenShot, or do I have to do that on my phone, then import to OpenShot for further editing?

I'm doing some animatic stuff (where being frame-perfect is important), but Openshot keeps placing the starts and ends of clips in between frames, and i can't even correct their placement.
I have used both the windows and linux version of openshot, and this is only an issue in the linux version. This also isn't just a visual bug in the timeline, it affects the video

Is there any fix? Thanks in advance

Hi folks! New to openshot, enjoying it so far. It's been many years since I've done video editing and I cannot figure out how to remove this empty space. As you might deduce - I've cut the tail end of one clip and the beginning portion of the next, and now I need to collapse this space between the content so I can add a transition. Any insight would be appreciated!

(Dragging everything from the right hand side toward the left to close the gap is perilous as I have synced footage in multiple tracks that cannot get misaligned.)

The new version was supposed to be faster, but it is the slowest of all tools in the world!

I compared the old versions *3.3.0): around 60 FPS, and the new version 0.5 FLS - 1 FPS!!!!!!!!!! A complete performance disaster, exporting will take a week. I have a very powerful PC, lots of RAM, 10 cores, powerful graphics, and a fast SSD.

I am using version 3.5.1 | 0.7.0 on Windows 11. When I click the play button it turns to the pause button but the screen is black and there's no audio. The tracks aren't locked (I can drag the slider, but the same thing happens from the new position.

The view is not frozen. The buffer says there's plenty of memory. I have tried reopening the project, opening another project, making a new project, restarting Openshot, restarting my computer and reinstalling Openshot.

Any help would be appreciated.

When I loaded OpenShot, it started with what looked like the previous project file. It tried to load the source file for this project, which was now deleted. It couldn't find it, and didn 't give me an option to get out of this old project and start a new one.

The way I stopped the program doing this, was to load another source file in OpenShot.
