OpenShot Video Editor: Beginners Tutorial

I am going to give this a go, at a beginner's level, I have tested the MS one, but it doesn't work offline. So, let's see how I get on with this one.

Thank you so so much 😊

As a beginner who's didn't even know about this software, your tutorial lost me. Lucky for me I did find another one that was more to the point and simpler.

i cant work ouit how to trim the black ending (long black exess) anyone? ty!

Thank you for a straight forward tutorial. You answered a number of questions not found elsewhere. Once again many thanks.

I used to be able to use Open Shot easily but can't recall now because I am rusty from not using it all the time. However, my pc was 8 Gig of ram. I therefore realized quickly the latest update would crash. I put in a older version from 2019. I upgraded it to 16 Gig. That was the minimum for the newer version. All that said. As of today did not upgraded to newest Open Shot version yet. And this video is around a year old per the timestamp. So let's see how this goes.
I think what I did to install a older version was go to the programs website and hunt down a list of older versions. They were unable to be downloaded from the website. Therefore I searched them and found a site housing old versions and downloaded. I also am not able to upgrade this pc to Windows 11. We were all hosed on that to an extent. But everybody has a different situation. When I bought the computer in 2019 it was unknown the specs needed for Windows 11. It turned out my chipset is wrong model and not on the upgradable models and it needs some other tweaks to work.. Yes you can force it on but no I am not going to do it.
I just got the PC serviced when it crashed in a power failure and they went ahead and moved it up to 16 gigs of Ram. Technology changed too fast so when I bought this Dell Optiflex computer the store said it was a good buy. But now it is lagging a little.
Thus I bought a laptop that upgraded to Windows 11. I needed it because the older one was accidentially erased and formatted and now cannot turn on and decided not to mess with it. Long story short and to finish up. Let's see how this Openshot tutorial goes. While the laptop was upgraded to Windows 11. It also only had 8 GB of ram which I never noticed until I understood that it is no longer fast enough. But so be it. Plus the laptop is 1 TB which is decent. But destop is 2 TB. I will say that right now after spending a lot I am done with PCs. I have invested in some external drives and usb sticks to move files. The laptop itself crashed in 2021 but got free service from Dell. but it costs over 50 dollars to maintain warranty. Which expired on this desktop PC and was never serviceable by Dell due to it having been refurbished by the store. I now understand what gigs of memory do and what a refurbished computer does to getting the manufacturer to service it for free.
I just need to splice three clips together and make a file.

great video! helped me out and i love how you added all the time stamps!!

thank you

Why is my video in the video viewer jerky motion.

can we make dimensions for short videos??

I realize this is an old video and my question may not be answer but; I want to put a dust and scratches video over the overall video (videos clips within the video). Is that possible with OpenShot?

First, let me say thank you for this very informative tutorial. I downloaded OpenShot, but when I open it, I can only see one track at a time at the bottom. I noticed that you opened multiple tracks at the same time. Do you have any idea why I can open only one? I am using Windows 10.

Hindi me milega

All I wanted to see was how to bring multiple files into openshop and then append each of them after each other without a blank in between and without loosing video in between.

Quick question:
How do I zoom or de-zoom only parts of the video and not all the video?
Thanks

I downloaded and installed Openshot and I have found it to be not for beginners. The first thing I tried was title and the one I selected required and additional download called Blender, well I downloaded that and again Openshot failed to find the extension. You have to locate the extension in preferences but again you have to find the file it requires to start. So again not for beginners.

Hi! I downloaded the software but when I edit video, I couldn't add videos or images. I can add one if I close the app first then relaunch it. What is the probable reason behind this?

Thankyou. That was very useful!

Just installed OpenShot and when I start the program, my version has no "project panel" to place my video files, it only has "Tracks" and the "Preview Panel". Can you show me to a video that is actually geared toward beginners and shows how to set up this software? I know I am a retard, but I really need a basic beginner tutorial that actually shows how to set up and use the software itself, this video is of no help.

This video was very helpful. I'll be be referring to it often to help with my editing. Thanks for sharing!

This really helped! Thanks! :D Now I can actually put music in my videos!

THANK U SO MUCH🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

Thanks Edward that was very helpful , though I am noticing that this editor sometimes has a glitch , coz the video sound and image stops! I also have 2 questions : how long is the duration time on the timeline ? How can you make a short video to last for longer period of time ? Let's say 5 min video to last 30 min ? Thanks

Nice 👍

Очень хороший урок. Премного Вам благодарен!

thanks bro you explained very easily.

helpful! video!

Great Info Bro. Gog bless you always!

Thank you so much !

Thanks! I downloaded this software for work ( I make educational videos). Your tutorial was very basic and contained just enough information to get me started. I'll definitely come back when I'm ready to go deeper.

Great video! I am new to this and the one thing I don't understand is what the green guides/resizing options are for on the right side, preview panel? I always import my videos and then edit them. Do they correspond to the video profiles? Thank you!!

Precise as I expected for the person like me. Thanks a lot.

how do i get same layout?

I struggled at first to get the same layout as is shown here. At the very top of the screen, along with FILE etc, is the VIEW option. From here you can select SIMPLE VIEW. It is hidden at the start of this tutorial but can be seen after 1 minute 40 secs. Apart from that it was most helpful.

Why is my openshot playing in milisecond when i test my video

Excellent, efficient tutorial.

Clear, concise, well laid out out beginner's tut. I'll be checking out your other videos.

were currently learning about openshot video editor as a chapter. And this video cleared all my practical doubts!
