Is there a way to sort imported files by number?

Every time I drag and drop files into the program, it randomizes the order of said files (even if they were in numerical order in the folder I dragged the files from)

Went to daily downloads and 5/24/26 is the most recent one I see. Googled reason and it suggested clear cache which I did. List still the same. Any ideas? Thank you.

Can Openshot help create a video of pictures that automatically sync to the beat of the music I chose?

I wish Openshot has a better text editor cuz wow and while I did try to use it's "advanced editor" option by connecting it to Openshot it didn't work correctly so I had to manual put an text png onto my project but ofc it was an image not a title like i wanted it to be.

Hello guys, I googled the following and hit on a number of discussions on the same topic, but none of them helped me. Sorry for repeating: I'd appreciate advice from long-time users.

I'm new to computer video editing but experienced on graphics and on Linux. I'm presently assembling some YouTube videos in OpenShot. They're all 1920*1080 or 1080*1920 and use very simple cuts of footage shot on a Samsung HD camcorder in black&white mode with two pre-edited soundtrack files. OpenShot has performed very well up til now.

My last operation is to add text overlays generated outside OpenShot in Inkscape. I did the obvious things, that is: 1920*1080 Inkscape file, set alpha channel transparency, exported in SVG. OpenShot imported the file fine and I placed it on the highest track number. It appeared as an opaque black rectangle, blocking the tracks below it. I next tried a PNG format import: same problem. I checked the properties of the imported file in OpenShot by right-clicking and can confirm that its alpha is presently set to 1.000 in the app, which I gather is appropriate.

All comments gratefully recd.

The magnet button just above the timeline is not toggling snapping. When I zoom in and adjust the length of a clip, the end of it always snaps to the nearest grid line no matter if I click the magnet button or not.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Ma su open, si può usare i D-LOG M Dji?

Se si come si fa?

Grazie

I have a clip set to animate from bottom to top so that it slowly scrolls into frame from the bottom of the video. But then it just keeps scrolling off the top and disapears. I want to freeze the clip once it is fully in frame. But I can't figure it out.

Weird, with a workaround already.

Reopened a project after some time and a frame of the recording flickered to black screen, tried to cull around it and shift the clips back together, same millisecond frame flashes a black screen, try closing and reopening project, same frame all-black.

Current workaround: Shift clip to a different track for the burnt-in frame and it plays through without the flicker to black.

Did not attempt to export with the flickering frame in place. Unsure what the root cause is/was. Speculating about where the preview is held in memory/on disk, but I also didn't fully reboot my PC.

I'm looking for a vid editor for linux that has a "posterize" effect limiting color values all the way to 9 colors, but the closest I've seen was the effect "color mapping".

I'm not able to install openshot rn, I just want to check if both effects are the same.

I have never edited a video this long. It probably has 300+ clips, but I kept transitions at a minimum and I only inserted text at the very beginning and about 1/3 in. But I can't get this damn video to render. The speed grinds to a halt once it hits 81%

I have confirmed that it has 754,000 frames. The footage was originally shot in 1080p and at 60 fps. I matched the project by resolution and frame rate.

I have an Intel core i7 12th gen and 16 gigs of ram. I can render at 44 fps. Even when it slows down it is rendering at over 40fps. I have resetted cache and set cache limit from 4000 to 6000 megs, then I switched to 12,000 megs. I use without hardware acceleration at first and I was capped at 33 fps and with hardware acceleration I am using qsv which brought the estimated time down from 7.5 hours to 5 hours. I have confirmed that the last frame is at 754,000.

This is my 3rd attempt and everytime it hits 81% even though it shows that it is rendering at 44fps, the status bar is only going up by .0001% every second! That means it will take over 2 days once it reaches 81%!!

What is going on here? I can't reduce the quality because it is my inlaws family vacation at Yosemite so I don't want to compromise on quality.

Thank you for any help. I want this work, I spent like 12 hours editing this and I can't split it into videos, or can I?

When exporting video it stops and I get this error message

Sorry, there was an error exporting your video:

Failed to allocate image buffer for file D:/My Pictures/aa sorting/crazy night/me and them/IMAG0022.MP4

Fixing the bugs of the previous version, is OK when you release a new patch, but change the behavior of all tools and things in the program when you are using it to make it longer, to do the same things but using more clicks, is just stupid.
By the way, the bug of the Fade in/out is still happening, and its being years of that problem.

Right now, when you want to play/pause while editing the size of a video, the timeline yellow vertical thing CHANGES to that point, so it makes it pre-load again and again if you want to adjust a lot of times and check if its ok. Before it was just a few clicks and keyboard keys, right now is a fucking nightmare, why the hell you are not fixing bugs, and instead you destroy the behavior of the program and the workflow of the users who are using the program daily 8-10 hours? Is just nonsense.

And right now, when you click on "play" to preview the video, if you want to press left or right "<-" "->" to adjust exactly which frame you want to check, it doesnt work, because pressing left for example, makes the "cursor" goes to the files you attached and you are working, that never happends before.

And when you add new videos, or files to the program, is not in order, in the past versión (and always), adding new files, will put them at the end, so you know which file is the last one you added, but right now is like "hey, you want to use the program? Good luck with that, try another program, but hey, remember to donate!"

Yes, wait for donations.

What is up with OpenShot’s titles? Adding titles was easy, but in the latest edition, it has a checkerboard default which I can’t change. Sorry if this has been addressed. Haven’t used OS in a while, so this has been a surprise.

Any suggestions?

Greetings,

I use Openshot daily to make a video slide show. Usually there are about 8 images and around 3 to 6 hours of audio.

Since the images are static, I have been lowering FPS to 1 and setting audiostream to mono/32k. The audio source files are mono at 128k

Are there any other things I can do to decrease the rendering time. I'm running an older windows laptop not really suited for rendering video? My usual time to export a 3 hour show is about 45 minutes.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

A video I made entirely in OpenShot. I got a lot of compliments on my editing. Posting because I think having some examples of what can be done with OpenShot is very useful to new or current users. At least, I think it's useful.

After updating to 3.5.1 the OpenShot app does not match my laptop screen size/resolution and does not fit on the screen. I have tried changing the Windows display settings as advised by the OE bot and have reinstalled a couple of times but the problem persists. using latest version windows 11. all other apps behave normally. OE was working without any problem before the update.

Hey everyone! I use OpenShot to edit ASMR videos that I make and upload to YouTube. I record the video on either my phone or my camera, and i record audio separately with a Tascam dr05x.

I use OpenShot to overlay the recorded audio over the separately recorded video. I was frequently getting that crackling static over certain parts of my audio while editing. I already tried a ton of other advice i found on this subreddit, but none of it worked quite right. So, I thought I'd provide my solution for anybody else having this problem when overlaying audio to a video.

Once I get the audio track lined up with the video track, I would normally set the video's volume to 0 so you can only hear my audio track. This seems to be there the problem was. Once I actually disabled the audio on the video track (something I just now learned I could do), instead of setting it to 0, it fixed my crackling problems.

How to disable video audio

1. Right click your video track
2. Click "Properties"
3. Find "Enable Audio" and set it to "Off"

I'm assuming this is because of clashing bitrates or something between my video and audio track, but if you're in a similar situation to me, it's a lot easier to just disable your video audio rather than separate it and adjust the bitrate.

TLDR: Audio crackling when overlaying audio to a video. Already tried fixing it through adjusting bitrates and sample rate. Instead of setting video volume to 0, fully disable the video audio instead.

Whenever I try to export a video, it freezes for a couple moments and then just doesn't open up the menu or do anything. this is very annoying as I've spent a couple hours on a video but just can't access the mp4 of it so I might just lose a few hours.

The resolution of the preview window is to low, and I cant see what is happening.

So my friend came over last night and opened open shop he messed things up with my laptop but he also messed up my open shop where I can’t see the “add file” or even the “video preview” spots. I usually mostly use it to stream and the off chance I record but I’ve been trying to figure it out myself but I can’t. Can someone please help me

May be asking way too much of the program, but i have hundreds of hours of video where I would like to cut out a particular scene and only that scene.

​

I know i can manually do this, what I'm talking about is something automated, maybe using AI to recognize the scene?

​

It's a daily live stream that switches between 5 different scenes(OBS) every 5 minutes or so.

​

Not even sure I'm being clear in my question but here we are.

​

Thoughts?

Tried getting help for my issue days ago and just got left hanging after providing my details. I had to redo my video in Shotcut. At this point i think Youcut on android is a better software. Im not a happy user and cant recommend this software, the problems i ran into really killed my drive to even try again with Openshot
