If I were to switch video editors, having the program crash on me constantly is obviously a very big problem.Ģ) I didn't see any obvious language defining why I should switch to Shotcut. This is a really bad foot to start off on.Ĭan anyone speak to the stability of Shotcut? I see a few comments below mentioning crashes, I just can't tell if we're talking every month or so, or every 5 minutes. I get the impression that this software is extremely unstable across OSes. Here's a bit of feedback, in the event anyone who manages the site reads this comment section:ġ) I checked the FAQ and the 2nd and 3rd question in the FAQ were about crashing on Windows. Very possibly the sweet spot we've been looking for! And has exactly one contributor.īy contrast, Shotcut seems to be built on, and by, with a close correspondence between the runtime API surface and the file system representation of a file, and it's fully open-source. seems to give just read-only access to a lot of things at the TimelineClip level.

For me, this software is a welcome surprise from Sourceforge and I thank the developer immensely for making this great tool that helps me work. For jobs that require more speed and simplicity, I'm always using Shotcut. Despite having few (and irrelevant) bugs, Shotcut is lightweight, fast, easy, and incredibly powerful. I work with video editing and use Adobe Premiere as well as After Effects. I'd rather use enough to have a consistent opinion. I was able to export to the format I wanted, without complication. Today I needed to use Shotcut and, in a surprising way, it was more useful than Adobe Media Encoder.
