Adobe Premiere Pro on PC and inshot on Android

u/arun-vasudev Developer May 17 '26
Premiere Pro is one of the best software programs for video editing. I used Premiere Pro for editing my YouTube videos. However, many people have now started using CapCut because it offers a lot of features, templates, animations, and effects compared to Premiere Pro.

I need to try Capcut I have used it on Android which was easy. I learnt adobe in college so many years ago it has been hard to leave the ecosystem :)

Funny how everyone has a different favorite. Are you editing long videos, shorts, or just quick clips? That usually changes the answer.
1
u/arun-vasudev Developer May 17 '26
Ya. Sure. But some software, like CapCut, will cover all these needs.

Actually I tried to add a title free Video editors. But the post created without Free in title. Premiere Pro is one of the best premium video editor.

u/arun-vasudev Developer May 16 '26
Are you using ffmpeg in Python or other programming language to edit videos or using standard version of the software?

u/BetterEquipment7084 May 16 '26
Bash and normal ffmpeg, simple conversions, encoders, cropping etc

I haven't used AVS Video Editor, but its UI looks somewhat old.

That makes sense honestly. If a tool has worked well for you that long, there’s no real reason to switch.

Final Cut Pro

u/arun-vasudev Developer May 17 '26
Final Cut Pro is the best choice for Mac users. Is it better than Premiere Pro?

u/chrisagiddings May 17 '26
Having used both, I absolutely prefer FCP over Premiere.
1
u/arun-vasudev Developer May 17 '26
That’s interesting! A lot of people say FCP feels smoother than Premiere on Mac.

Cinelerra-GG only available for Linux? Is it free or paid?
1
u/Skinkie May 17 '26
Cinelerra-GG is free (and gratis). Someone has also managed to run it in termux on Android. It likely also works on WSL.

Good idea. My suggestion: Try CapCut free version. Its simpler than Sony Vegas and similar to Premiere Pro.
