This was fantastic. I'd figured out the layers and how to resize but my video was showing the top layer being resized. This video helped me with that in a wonderfully timely manner.
This is what I needed. I recently, like two days ago, started using openshot. I was doing these transitions using powerpoint for one of my video editors then finishing it up in movie maker. This is going to save me so much time and effort. I just subscribed to your channel. Thank you.
Appreciate it and glad it helped! I had similar issues as you did when I first started to learn video editing and I found Openshot to be the best Newbie friendly version Plus it was at an Amazing price of Free ;)
l'M WORKING ON MY NEXT UPLOADS NOW EXCITED!!!! this is so easy. I love powerpoint but the timing is so much work for the videos cause there is no video view and movie maker doesn't have the features I need. Thanks again. I'll be all about your tutorials and I'll let others know.
I am really enjoying your videos, so helpful. I've learned a lot. Can you show how to zoom in on the smaller inset picture? In your example, zoom in to just show face (for demo purposes)? I hope you see this because this would be quite helpful.
Sure thing glad these videos helped! You can use keyframes to zoom in. I did a video on Openshot Keyframes below if you're interested: th-cam.com/video/nWXSV9kSrFU/w-d-xo.html
Just got started working with openshot.. Coming from windows movie maker, lol.. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this.. Greatly appreciated !
This works. Just trying to figure out how to mute the audio on the second clip. The stereo effect of both audios going at the same time is no bueno. Tried setting volume=0 on the second clip but it seems to ignore that. "Enable Audio" it didn't want to let me click either.
I love your video and thank you for sharing and my question is 1) is it possible to include two or more clips at a Time ? 2) updated Openshot is not working on my windows 10
Sure thing glad you enjoyed them and that they're helpful! I do try to make tutorials that are beginner friendly as possible as I'm still a beginner myself :)
Hey man, thanks for the video it helped out alot! Is there anyway to design the sides/frame of the face cam? So it looks better if yes then much appreciated if you could tell me how.
Hmmm you can adjust the volume as needed and I've created some videos below discussing Openshot Audio below: th-cam.com/video/7HLwA3wPSso/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/xsd8OK5UqZU/w-d-xo.html
No prob glad it helped! For me when I experienced this, it was usually due to performance on Openshot as my hardware is pretty strong. Also as your projects get more complex, more tracks, or you're doing 4K content, this will become more of an issue.
I took 2 videos of myself, one up close, and the second video i was standing in the backgroud. All i want is the area of the background video with me in it, to show thru the to the other layer. So basically it looks like a twin is behind me.
Hi thanks so much for the great tutorials! I'm trying the PIP and when I size the smaller clip with the properties Scale X & Y when playing back it starts at full size and shrinks to the XY I set. If I use the Layout with the 1/4 frame it starts 1/4 frame and stays during the duration of the clip and that's what I want. But I need it smaller that 1/4 frame so I took the 1/4 frame and in properties did a scale XY smaller and during play it still slowly shrinks from 1/4 frame to the scale I set. Sort of a neat inverse zoom effect but I need it to stay the scale I set it. Is there another property selection that's a default causing that?
Sure thing glad it helped! At this point, I don't know of an easy way to copy clip attributes to use on multiple clips like I do in Davinci Resolve however if I figure out a good process, then I might make a future episode on it.
Hai Geekoutdoors, thanks for the sharing. I would like to know, is there any ways, to make the background video to pause, while the video in front is keep talking? :)
Hi Friend. How do I make a video do a mirror image so that you are seeing the reverse of the what the original vid looked like. Ie like when you stand in the mirror and see the reverse? I could do it on an old version of openshot but can't see how to do it on the new.
Is there a way to move an image without the editor animating it moving. I want it static in a certain position at a certain, everytime I do though as soon as it appears it starts moving into the position it's supposed to be in and does just pop up in the position I set immediately after it's meant to appear
Hmmm if you have the image in the same position then it shouldn't move unless you have the image in different positions using keyframes then there would be some animation moving from 1 position to another.
Hey, I'm trying to add a picture over my video and when I have them in two different tracks like you have in the video, it does not show through the video. It may be that the background of the image is transparent but once the video clip ends it seems to work fine. I tried putting the image on the same track as the video (Overlapping it) and the image would just cut in and out. Any ideas?
Unfortunately Openshot isn't the best optimized and I have performance problems as well when doing 4K, adding more effects or multiple tracks. Plus it also depends on your hardware so you'll have to test - I have a Intel Core I7 6700K with 32GB RAM and still run into performance issues.
Images in openshot are getting displayed with little black background.I want to images to cover entire screen.I will be playing music in background and pictures will be shown in foreground.Kindly help
Dragging a picture-in-picture frame is extremely laggy on my PC (about 0.3 fps in real time). I would expect an i9 processor with 32 GB of RAM to enough for such a simple task. Or do I need some super duper graphics card? Also: why are the resize corners of the picture frames totally unintuitive? Image size is jumping all over the place and never the way I want it. What am I doing wrong? Even more important: why would anyone use OpenShot when it crashes regularly without saving any progress? Or is it bad luck and does it seem stable for most users?
Hey Martin, I'd say Openshot isn't currently the best optimized even with more powerful hardware. Might wanna give Kdenlive or Shotcut a try and I have entire playlists for both if you're interested.
Its a video on a video... Not a picture on a p i c t u r e. Helpful video if you need a video on a video, not worth watching if you need help with picture on picture with OpenShot. (Edit: Btw does anyone know how to put a picture on a picture on OpenShot I want to know.)
Hai Rose, i think, you should change a setting in your audio, when you want to export the video. The default is ac3, and try to change it to aac. It works for me. :)

Great video! I was just wondering, is there a way to make the smaller picture circular?
Thx Billy! As far as I know, there's not a circular PIP option.
Thank you sir !! Really helpful !! Cheers mate.
Sure thing glad that helped you. Cheers!
I love your video and thank you for sharing and my question is 1) is it possible to include two or more clips at a Time ? 2) updated Openshot is not working on my windows 10
Thx much! I am able to include 2 or more clips and I'm using this in Linux Mint so not sure about Window 10.
@@GeekoutdoorsBrand Thank you for a very quick response i hope you can also visit my channel ....
How many can you add? does it also work with adding images?
I'm not sure if there's a limit but you can do this with images as well.
Thanks, it really helped me!
You're most welcome!

Awesome glad it helped and welcome new TH-cam Creator!
it heped me a lot. Thank you!

Awesome 👍
Hey man, thanks for the video it helped out alot! Is there anyway to design the sides/frame of the face cam? So it looks better if yes then much appreciated if you could tell me how.
Hmmm I'm pretty sure there's a way using other programs along with Openshot but I'm not sure myself.
Hey, what kind of videos should there be to edit on OpenShot?
Hmmm I guess whatever you'd like.
what do you do about sound? Which clip has the priority soundwise?
Hmmm you can adjust the volume as needed and I've created some videos below discussing Openshot Audio below:

You're very welcome glad it helped you!
Thank you so much ...You are a life saver dude
You're welcome glad it helped!
wonderful!

thanks man, this really helped :)
Wow! This was super helpful man! Any thoughts on why audio would skip during playback while that overlay is on screen?
No prob glad it helped! For me when I experienced this, it was usually due to performance on Openshot as my hardware is pretty strong. Also as your projects get more complex, more tracks, or you're doing 4K content, this will become more of an issue.
@@GeekoutdoorsBrand Thanks for the reply! I'm just going to cross my fingers and hope for the best!
Is there a way to make a circular webcam plus add a boarder please respond!!!!!!
not sure there's an easy way to do this.
Wow thats awesome
Thanks and glad it helped you out!
Yeah it did help a lot
I was about to start paying because I though there was no features like this. Thank you.
Sure glad it helped!
very helpful 👍
Glad this was helpful for you!
you are so great!

Can you use game clips in OpenShot? if no then how can I take a screen recording that is compatible to use for openshot?
Yes and I use OBS for Game Screen recordings. check out my video below:
th-cam.com/video/2mdTIyvVr1Y/w-d-xo.html
Can you actually add a gif on the video? Like on the bottom of your video there is a logo gif something like that?
You can use Image clips instead of video as well.
@@GeekoutdoorsBrand gotcha thanks!
Thank you

Can you make the PIP a circle?
Hmmm I'm pretty sure you can figure out a way with masking as I don't recall a shapes feature in Openshot.
I am looking for a way to create an Indiana Jones traveling map transition in Openshot.
I don't have any ideas on how to do that in Openshot myself.
@@GeekoutdoorsBrand, I found two versions, one easier than the other.
So when you take a screenshot on your laptop how do you get it onto openshot?
You can add it to project just like you would a video/audio file.
I’ve just downloaded this I don’t know anything about it ;-;
Is there a way to move an image without the editor animating it moving.

When I add effects on my clips.openshot jerk to play that specific clip and it consumes all cpu . Please help me
Unfortunately Openshot isn't the best optimized and I have performance problems as well when doing 4K, adding more effects or multiple tracks. Plus it also depends on your hardware so you'll have to test - I have a Intel Core I7 6700K with 32GB RAM and still run into performance issues.
How do you do this without any animation? Like 6:53.
I don't recall as it's been awhile since I've done PIP for Openshot so you might want to play around or research other tutorials that might help.
Images in openshot are getting displayed with little black background.I want to images to cover entire screen.I will be playing music in background and pictures will be shown in foreground.Kindly help
There should be a way to resize image as I've probably shown in video if I remember correctly as you can also resize videos.
Thank you!!!
