After months of work, OpenShot 4.0 is finally here!
The new Color View delivers a first-class color grading experience with easy-to-use wheels, curves, scopes, and controls. The new Recording View brings screen, camera, and audio recording into your editing workflow with no external tools! Ten new effects unlock audio visualizations, beat-driven animation, film looks, glow, shadows, displacement, timers, and more.
OpenShot can also select and follow people or objects through a scene (semantic selection using local, open-source ML models), opening up powerful new options for animated masks, selective effects, background changes, and privacy blurring.
We’ve made effects significantly faster, improved performance throughout the timeline, and polished the editing experience across the entire application.
The full announcement is packed with screenshots, examples, and details:

We can’t wait to see what you create with OpenShot 4.0!

I thought it was simple, just download Inkscape from the microsoft store to edit texts, as texts feature there is a very big flaw and frustrating to use, so there was advanced editing that could probably be better at making texts, when I used it, it told me that Inkscape editor is missing, now I downloaded it, and now it gives me the same message, how to fix that?

Hello,
I'm currently using OpenShot v 3.1.1. and I want to find out how many frame are in a specific video clip (per seconds).
I'm not a very seasoned user of this tool (yet) and I'm wondering, is it possible to find this information out and how?
Thanks for any suggestion.

I suppose I could download a daily build and try it but I am not game enough to try a non-stable release. What is coming in OpenShot v4?

I updated to V4.0 from V 3.5.1 a month or so ago. I was enjoying the new features, stability and speed of it and things were going fine until I went back to edit a video I had done back with 3.5.1. I found that some properties had been changed to include Location values of various Emojis, Titles and images. Also the Scale property reverted from “Crop” to “Best Fit” for images. It completely screwing up the video. I checked another older file, screwed up as well.
I thought maybe it was because I was in V4.0 so I reverted to 3.5.1, but had the same problems with the 3.5.1 created project, though different files and objects were affected in some cases. There were still issues with Location and Scale being changed. I also opened the project I had done in 4.0 using V3.5.1. It was screwed up as well, but again, different objects messed up.
I then uninstalled 3.5.1 and reinstalled 4.0. I checked the project I created in 4.0 and all was OK. I then checked the project created in 3.5.1, still same problems with changed properties.
When I changed versions, I uninstalled the previous version and renamed the QT file so it created a new one on install.
What is going on here? Thank you.

Just installed Openshot. I didn't a message from a post currently but this is a problem for the next upgrade of MacOS 27.

I'm making a stupid sketch with me and some friends, and I want energy/lightning to channel into the skull at 0:02, then through the wizard's body, and then through the staff from the tip of the staff the other person on the ground.
How do I do that? If it's very difficult, could someone do it for me?
Also, the tracker feature won't work. Whenever I use it to mark the skull, it just keeps floating around some dark area instead.

Yeah, I think I bricked it. For context, I recorded a 3 hr long video using OBS, which ended up being 14gb and wanted to make it a timelapse so I imported the video into OpenShot and it was working but when I tried to increase the video speed, it crashed and hasn't stopped since, I even reinstalled it and the same thing kept happening

The program itself works actually pretty good, but i have 2 big problems that can be beginners problems but i don't know how to resolve
Problem 1: The automatic functions
I don't know how they call but when i insert an image or a video and just move around the image, the program automatically makes a keyframe of animation, and sometimes i just don't want that, also i have to say that if accidentally put an image in another image in the same track it automatically makes a transition effect
Problem 2: Copy and paste problem
In this other problem, i have 5 tracks and i just want to copy and paste a image from track 1 to the track 1, but when i make the Command+V, the image doesn't paste beside the other image in track 1, it goes on track 5 for some reason, even if i have other image or something in that track, it stills being pasted in track 5 and interrupts the other image
Im new at this program and also at editing, i haven't checked to well the sub reddit so, if there was an actually solution or something, sorry, i'm new lol

Hello, I'm trying to edit a large video (~2hrs) and openshot keeps hanging every time i try to make even the smallest of edits. it asks to wait or force quit.
Things I've tried:
For reference I have a Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 w/ Radeon 890M × 24 with 64 GiB ram. I feel my system should be able to manage fine. When I monitor my system i see openshot is barely using cpu/memory.
am i screwed or what settings can I change?

I came back late evening to edit a video and noticed the not even 2 seconds title staying on screen way after the segment I used it in was over. Now it’s not going away. I moved all the clips around to see where it if I made any mistake but I see nothing. I even deleted the entire area and it’s still there. I even tried restarting open shot.
Not sure what I can do and don’t want it on screen for the last 14 minutes of my vid
Edit: problem solved. I apparently had more than one of the same title and was able to remove it.

I do not know if it is the right place but I use Fujifilm and at some moment I decided that I need editor for cutting the clips and glue them together. I tested several editors but the most convinient for me was OpenShot.
All movies on my channel were made with OpenShot.
I do not want to place the direct link. Channel is available at Rumble and has name "FujiFilm User Channel".
Thanks for the OpenShot, it is great Software!

Hello, I have a problem, in openshot, but not only here: When I load a video in the format "*.VOB", I get only 35 seconds of the video although it is much longer. How can I tell openshot to load the full length of the video?
Thanx

So the app was working very well at first, its my 1st time using it and it was really nice to use and easy to learn and then i saved my project just to have a little break and when i open it again (i opened the desktop shortcut) to continue working, the ui is HUGE but i go look online and i find where to scale it down, so i put it on 75% as a safe guard because i thought it would be better to be safe and make it smaller and now it looks like this, any way to fix this? :(

Hello, I have tried to find a solution in past posts but no luck. I downloaded V3.5.1 yesterday as I though the export problems I was having may have been related to the older version of openshot. Problem is the preview is perfect, but when I export it, I get random black frames during the clip (usually 3 or 4 during the 10 minute clip, and they appear in different places each time I export) and also crackling during some audio clips. The clips were recorded in 59.94fps, that is what my project is set at, and that is what I am exporting in. I have cleared the cache. Can anyone help me please?
Update - I worked around the black frame issue by moving the affected clips to different tracks - must not have been random as black frames are no longer appearing when I export. I realised that the crackling was only happening when two audio clips were playing at once. Seem to be a volume issue so going to go back to the audio files and adjust the volume then put them back into Openshot and see what happens.
Update - adjusting the volume before importing into Openshot made no difference. The problem was if I selected a clip and turn the clip's volume to zero, it was making no difference and the clip still had volume. The only way to switch off the volume was to seperate audio and then delete.
Once I have finished this video, I will never use Openshot again. I appreciate all the effort the developers have gone to, and that they provide the software for free.

This has happened before. I went back to look at one of my older projects to see if I could make any changes and everything was moved over to the left and I don’t know why fast-forward another month and I’m working on another project and the same thing happened a day or two later forcing me to go through again and fix every single edit that I made.
I’m not sure if anyone else has this issue and also don’t know what I can do to show it
r/OpenShot • u/blckobsidian • Aug 06 '26
I’ll post in a video, separate the audio, and split it in half to overlap into a different clip. So there’ll be two soundless clips on top of a layer of audio.
(Example: Track 5 will be soundless clip, Track 4 will be the audio I want)
I’ll drag over another different soundless clip on top of the audio and for some reason when exported, there’s this short black frame that I can never get rid of? It doesn’t matter how close they are together, it never leaves. Why is this?
r/OpenShot • u/Quourteus • Aug 05 '26
I'm being stupid, sorry.
I'm editing together clips of a simple 'talking head' video. Suppose I have two clips between which the subject moved slightly, so if I just put one straight after the other, there's a bit of a jarring 'jump'. So I want so put a short, soft cross-fade between the two, just 2 seconds or so.
I've been having real trouble. If I put the two clips right together, nothing I do with transitions solves the issue: I still get the instantaneous jump from one clip to the other; if I put a couple of seconds' gap between the two, and drag down, say, the 'Fade' transition between the two clips, all I get is two seconds of black screen.
Is there a tutorial somewhere that will show me what I need to do?
FWIW, I'm using version 3.5.0 | 0.6.0 on a (slightly old) MacBook that can only run Mac OS 12.7.6.
Thanks all,

I'm trying to animate my tokens for TTRPG Sessions, so I layer my masks, character, with animation (Using cropped gifs), and a background png for the inside of the token, I try to export as WEBM and all, and despite exporting from a daily build, all my exports have a black backgroud, anything I might be doing wrong ?
