- OpenShot Video Editor Review!
Is the OpenShot Video Editor any good? So I have been using the OpenShot Video Editor for a few weeks and I was pleasantly surprised by my findings. Keep watching till the end so you can find out my answer about what I think about the OpenShot Video Editor.
In today's video, I will be doing a comprehensive review of the OpenShot Video Editor. I will be going over all the pros and cons of what I have experienced when using OpenShot during my testing period. However, keep in mind that this is based on my own personal experience and opinion, and I know that results may vary and other people may have their own point of view which is a good thing. I wanted to make sure that this review is as well rounded as possible so you can make your decision about what video editor is the best one for you!
Comment down below which video editor would you want for me to review next!

If you are new to OpenShot and want a Complete Beginners Tutorial, check out my new tutorial on it!
th-cam.com/video/6ORC-Fuppmo/w-d-xo.html
Does it have watermark?
Nope
"Those who are new" You said that about 6 time already.
is it safe? please answer
anybody else just love it everytime he says "edidrr"?
I was about to point that out until I saw your post. Tonight I'm having people over and in EJ's honor we will watch the video and take shots everytime he says edidrr! Bottoms up!
He needs to say "edidrr" more.
@Nazareth Podcasts ASMR You're welcome :D

No cuz its eddrr in canada :D/
It’s so cool how much open source freeware is readily available nowadays. You have Gimp for images, Audacity for audio, OpenShot for video, and LibreOffice for documents.
All thanks to Linux, except maybe OpenShot.
Openshot is fine for getting started with the basics. You will reach its limitations fairly quickly if you're trying to do any serious editing. It also has bugs sometimes, like unexplainable audio anomalies and black frames appearing for no reason at all. For basic editing it's fine but special effects are clumsy and very limited. For a free program it's not terrible though. You can learn the basics for free and there are lots of how-to videos on TH-cam.
i really want to use davincin resolve but whenever i install it it never installs the video editor.
7:42 if anyone wants to have a short answer, the video goes into detail on what is good and bad about it.
Thank you!!
He just said the same thing over and over and over. TELL us WHAT is missing besides features!
I am very much a beginner. I used to do a lot more video editing back in the XP days with Windows Movie Maker. This interface is very similar, and I was able to hit the ground running.
So basically
pros = it's for beginners
cons = it's for beginners
perfect for me, as i'm sure myself is going to be a much more limiting factor for me than simplicity of software lol
thanks for the video, very helpful 8)
Perfectly said!
ive been using openshot for the past few months for my projects, and it really is just an editor. text is annoying to add, resize and so on. theres no crop feature so resizing videos and pictures is extremely tedious since you have to fiddle with the settings to get the right size. overall i rate it a 5/10, not good but not bad either,it does its job.
Thanks. That was 1000 times more helpful than this “review video.”
Be on the look out for starting your sentences with "So".
Sorry, just got out of school and I have no regard for grammar what so ever 😂 jk.
@@EJTech. "So"-rry,.... he did it again.
@@sportsbluff4501 lol!!
@@sportsbluff4501 big laff XD
@@sportsbluff4501 lol
This program is a pure shit, unintuitive interface for the simplest of tasks, crashes all the time, and makes things more complicated than they really are anywhere else, 0/10 - If something makes you nostalgic about Windows Movie Maker you know it's bad.
The most frustrating thing for me is the playhead seems to be difficult to move. While dragging with the mouse, it is constantly "sticking" and forces me to move the mouse and try again several times. Although I have hardware acceleration, it's still a bit laggy and slow. That being said though, I find it's an amazing program given that it's free.
I had the same issue, and found another video on TH-cam that explains how to fix it. Basically you change the "preview" window to a lower resolution so it can render it better while you are still editing - which does not affect your output resolution.
Here's the link to the fix - hope you enjoy reading subtitles... th-cam.com/video/-yR5CvqSlRo/w-d-xo.html
Take a shot every time you says video editor 😳
For the people that don’t have time to watch the video I’ll just sum it up it’s dogshit mid way through it will crash hours of work gone then you think you can save it nope it won’t save
My head is spinning, with non-stop, repetitious narrative, text flashing on the screen, and totally unrelated distracting editing activity goes on in the background. O good example of how not to do a review. I'm heading to some other videos to get a calm, organized presentation.
Does it support MTS and MOV files perhaps ?
Since my Sony Videocamera records in MTS format and my other camera records in MOV format and it`s probably one of the reasons why videos made in the Windows video editor refuses to export ( save ) to my pc.
"video editor" was said in like every sentence
Its a little annoying
And Basically.
I've been looking for an editor, that allows me to cut the video, add a narration, and then that's it. I don't want to jinx it, but it seems to work perfectly with no errors or bugs. I've tried Clipchamp that was derping at every opportunity. I tried LightWorks Free, and it gave a 720p max resolution. It just won't do for anything anymore. This is perfect.
Speaking of editing, your voice-over here needs serious editing. Your droning repetitive word salad sounded like a high school oral report where you are trying to make four minutes stretch into fifteen interminable minutes.
LMAO.😄
Thanks for the review, after 3 minutes, I started to wonder when you will say 'basically' again :-)
I guess these old videos still get traction huh? 😅
@@EJTech. Of course, useful content always get more attraction with time. I am completely new to video editing, so found this review good enough to start working on this topic. Glad you did not get offended by 'basically' part :-)
Glad you liked it, and I always get a good laugh when I see these comments!
I downloaded OpenShot and gave it a try. I've used DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Premiere before, but I don't do enough editing to become really good at using either of these more complex programs, so I was hoping that OpenShot might be a simpler, middle-of-the-road option for me.
However, forget it. It crashed on me constantly doing basic things, was very laggy and frequently hung when scrubbing thorough a FullHD clip. Program stability is the #1 thing I look at in evaluating software and if a program is not reasonably stable I don't go any further with my testing. (OpenShot 2.5.1 on Windows 10 with AMD Ryzen 7 PRO 3700U w/ Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx, 2300 Mhz, 16 GB RAM).
Legends says hes still saying "Video Editer" (No hate tho)
i got my PC yesterday and i am trying to find a good free video editer app. Thank You
awesome content!
One question: can I also upload predesigned animation video clips generated by other animation softwares onto Openshot? since I plan on creating video content which has combinations of normal video clips along with motion animations :) thanks heaps!
I would suggest to use animations either with a green screen background that you can key out later, or use a Quicktime MOV animation file. I haven't tested the second option yet but those are two possibilities you can try.
im thinking to get this . I have a video but I need to edit the sound levels in it
can this app do that please?
There should be a setting or filter where you can adjust the gain and volume for your audio, it comes with almost all video editing programs.
Only thing i have noticed is that when you try and watch the video you have created in openshop it will lag, the best way to watch it is to extract the video and open the file up
I had the same issue. If you change a couple of settings in Openshot, it will run more smoothly. Here's how to do it. th-cam.com/video/-yR5CvqSlRo/w-d-xo.html
i have been using this for a couple weeks now, i have somehow removed all of the parts of openshot apart from the tracks, i can no longer use it coz i think i broke it, please help
sry but i need short answer, is this program good
im searching for free video editing program
i can't afford to buy a one and im not interested in cracked.
and which is the best free program for editing?
I dual boot Windows and Linux. I wanted to do some video editing in Linux without leaving it so I checked it out. I use Premier in windows like cs5 or something. I don't usually do complex things in the sequencer, but may in blender and then have an alpha mask. So far it seems workable, but I am used to having opacity bands in Premier that controlled fade in outs. So I need to research but something tells me it does not have them
Openshot on Ubuntu is garbage. It uses 450% CPU just for a basic video slicing operation & brings the OS to it's knees.
In my experience, it's a giant pile of shit and you would be better served using anything else. The interface is just garbage, simple things like cropping and zooming are labor-intensive, and it frequently corrupts my clips when I undo/redo. I'm not new to editing, but even free is too high a price for this. 2/10.
Great Video Keep up the good work =)
Why use one word when you can use 20 and repeat them!
horrendous to edit videos with, bit ironic its a video editing tool, i absolutely do not recommend it to anyone, considering its out there since 2008, available in 172 languages and multiple platforms this is an extremely bad attempt of a video editing tool, I will certainly make sure not to recommend it to anyone
very helpful, thank you
Glad I could help!
Now openshot supports hardware acceleration under linux, so the performance is even better if you're using linux. Otherwise, you will be using just your CPU.
that isnt a fact that is BS, it is really slow on my end and really laggy I use one of the best CPU's out there by AMD, it needs a whole revamp
@@Moshimulations right after I wrote this comment I found Olive, that seems to be waaay better
@@myghi63 welcome
Take a shot every time he says "Video Editor" you'll have many bullet holes :D
Thanks for the info
Really helpful, thank you!
Glad to help!
Hi EJ Tech: Congratulations for your excellent content. I have a question for you. If I want to create a 10 minute long video in OPENSHOT, how may I set or adjust the timeline, so I can see all the minutes, and seconds, until the 10th minute, where my video will end.? Kindly appreciate your answer. Thanks. Jose.
In most cases there will be time markers in the timeline as you edit. So you will be to adjust the timing of your video by zooming in and looking at the timeline.
Really good video. Could you do one for Filmora9 Wondershare please
woops you have already done it. thanks. :)
No problem, that video is more of a tutorial, but if you want a general overall review let me know 👍
@@EJTech. oh yes i see that now. It was still really useful as it is fairly complicated but a review would be good to if you have enough time on your hands.
I was lagging when editing on open shot that's was my problem with
So I use shotcut and have not lag when editing
My principal asked me to edit our videos in our school. Just installed it!
Hope you enjoy it and remember there are many tutorials out there on this video editing program if you need help on something!
I got problem installing blender. I did all but still not working.
Appreciate that you have not added a random soundtrack. Thanks.
While on the internet I saw this editor, I had no idea if it was good, now I know!
Thanks
What other video editing programs, would you like for me to review?
VideoPad Video Editor. Watch my video on how to get the free version: th-cam.com/video/b-w1IDyYKLw/w-d-xo.html It seems to be better than all free video editors. Or Adobe Premiere Pro
Openshot Video Editor is way too hard to use, how do u add text, how do you add transitions, how do you add video and audio effects, and more?
VSDC Pro. Please do a review...
can it zoom in? also can you add text?
Powerdirector is Good but it's too expensive to use especially you need to upgrade to premium
Love it
I have found this editor to be extremely sluggish. Trying to edit a simple video with just a few transitions, and an mp3 file and a video it was all buggy on playback. Alongside having crashed well over 20 times by the time i finished. And this was a simpler task. I would love it if it wasn't so buggy and unpolished.
My specsheet well exceeds what recommended lists.
Im kinda lost on how this would be fixed.
Probably it has to do with the software optimization. I haven't experienced this on my part, but thanks for sharing your experience!
ive found 1 video with possible things that could fix it. Supposedly a large number of people have this issue but nobody seems to have a very good answer.
But i plan to raise my cache and change the resolution to "trick" the program but otherwise im lost.
Kinda odd how i have a 1080 Strix [8GB VRAM], 24 gb RAM and a 6 core 12 thread processor clocking 4.3 GHz and i still can't run this.
This issue doesn't seem to be very well documented whatever it is.
is it safe
Yea
i clicked on the video and i gotta filmora ad
Gibberish
So much repetition, and so little real content.
I was interested by your videos, this message isn't only for you, but it goes mainly for that kind of reviews.
As a beginner looking for informations, the ultra fast speed of explanations and the mouse moving as a flea that you try to catch make it almost impossible to understand.
Thank you very much for the useful info
repeating your self too much
openshot crashes very common so watch out.
I've been using PD14 that came with my new laptop that is a limmited feture program that has been good for learning but I'm having a go with Openshot and compaired with PD14 I'm finding Openshot good as its a full editor BUT. The cons I'm being challanged with include: When i bring clips in to the project the film framing when i have twenty or more clips get a bit lost with the film framing that is put around each clip meaning the clips are harder to see and blend with each other. when a clip is bought into the timeline on PD a green tick apairs that lets me know that clip is on the timeline but Openshot dose not so if i have sevral takes of the same sceen that i want to choose from it can be hard to tell which is timelined and which is not.
To preview i PD i select a clip and it loads into the preview window and i hit the space bar to view it, on Openshot i have to click the clip, open the menue, select preview, click the arrow and so on making it a five step process just to see if i want to add it. I can just add it to the timeline and view it there and delete it if i don't want it but I'm finding it a bit clunky, Good but clunky.
If I want to speed up the clip I get the option of 2,4,8+ rather than what i want or a slide bar to make it faster or slower.
I'm going to keep using it for now to see if more use makes it easier to use but though I like Openshot it feels and looks old school to use.
This reminds me of Sony Vegas. It has a similar interface with the transitions, effects, project files.
That's exactly what I was thinking when I first opened this program too!
@@EJTech. Great minds think alike!
There are a few articles out one in particular that says that openshot can not be used as a movie-making editing software. Is there any truth to that? Here's the article: dc.wondershare.com/video-editor/openshot-vs-shotcut.html?afsrc=1&src=cj&cjevent=ca4d91bce33a11ea80bd00240a1c0e11
The video editor that I have is shotcut. Since you have both openshot and shotcut, which video editor do you like?
I read the article and it basically states similar points that I made in the video. OpenShot is a very good video editing program for basic projects. In my experience most people use openshot for its simplistic use of creating good video content. However, it does lack on advance features that may be used in more advanced or "cinematic" projects.
Between Shotcut and Openshot. Tbh I feel more comfortable using Shotcut just because I have used it for a longer time and it has consistent updates and many features. I even made a tutorial on how to get that cinematic look on videos and much more. But it all comes down to what you need it for and exploring all your different options.
@@EJTech. Ah, got it. How would users add transitions in shot cut using this link: www.shotcut.org/resources/
I also use hitfilm but the downsides to that one are in the effects tab, they keep omitting the presets tab and it won't accept wmv files.. only mp4. I basically downloaded shotcut and hitfilm because I needed a video editor for my HP laptop that I have since I got rid of sony vegas. I feel more comfortable using shotcut as well.
I'd love to use this, got it downloaded but am a complete noob and don't know how to actually 'open' it to actually see what you have on the screen let alone actually edit anything! lol Anyone got any tips?
I actually uploaded a beginners tutorial last week just in case you want to watch it. I go over all the basic things you will need in order to import, edit, and export a video. If you got any other questions just let me know!
As long as its as good as imovie im good
Try using a script
The program crashes every time I try to change the speed of a clip. What could be causing this? I have the latest version of openshot and I’m using a Surface Pro 4 device running on windows 10.
very familiar, just dont use Openshot, I would rather you stream instead of using openshot.
Or you can get sony vegas, filmora, adobe premiere and or Da Vinci Resolve.
I would state that it is really crappy in which it discouraged me from editing just dont waste your time on that software
Hoping you can help me. I'm new to video editing. I am looking for a Free Video Editor (or very cheap) to edit together footage from my motorcycle rides from a GoPro knockoff, have stabilization capabilities and be able to add various music of my choosing. Nothing crazy, I'm not doing commercials, just for viewing for myself, friends and family. Easy to use would be nice. Thanks!
be careful to the ads of the site pretending that their the openshot to download getting info and credit cards suddenly its not and I already charge good thing the bank txt me to stop..
him saying 'Video Editor' so much didnt bother me until i read the comments. funny how saying the same word/s over and over can make the word completely lose its meaning and for a moment i forgot what the video i was watching was about.
Just kidding though, great video man!
I really hate openshot
hey, luv the video. Does it leave a watermark?
Nope, no watermarks
video edduddrrr
Nice vid, but i find it so ANNOYING how much you say video editor. I cant like this video because of this!
is it a virus?
NO 4K HD ??
For me it lags badly if I add many effects to a clip but I think its my pc problem...
How this video has only 33k views? This is a GREAT review!
Is it safe?
I may start with this one, seeing as I have the video editing skill of a caveman.
for some reason it sometimes key frames itself. how do i get rid of that?
Openshot it doesn't respond after few seconds , very bad
It's a lot better when you speed it up to 1.75. The repetition actually works.
Does it have a preset size output for Instagram?
How do you add multiple lines of text to go into a corner so that it does not obscure any of the video. With this all i can see is it adds one line only. :(
the thing is idk how to upload it to yt once i have Exported it
I had this problem to, I had to go open you tube and then go add it through there by finding it in my downloads
I downloaded OpenShot and tried to edit a video. I am brand new. I had no idea what anything was and had to watch multiple videos to try and figure out how to do what I want to do. I thought I had it essentially worked out, but when I watched the final rendered video the sound was completely out of sync! I tried to build another video today, and the same issue seemed to happen. Any help would be appreciated.
try making the settings lighter on your computor
Make sure the resolution is the same. In other words if u shot ur video in 720p u must edit it in 720p I had that same issue one time Thought that might help
2:50
Take a shot every time he says video editor.
Does support all formats ?
behind the video ediderr or video eddiding, I am suggesting he is from one of the south asian countries.
dude you're Adventist! LET'S GOOOOOOO!!!
Bummer. You didn’t say anything about what it can and can’t do. Not very helpful.
Is this software works in 4gb ram smoothly ????
I have 16gb ram and it still doesn't run smoothly
right.
Does this work offline?
Yes it does :-)
Thanks my dude. Make a video in blender
Already did 😎
...
how can you blur faces please?
Piss piss piss
Hope that helped
When I use openshot and start video editing all the time hang or lag and stock like 5 to 10 minute my pc specs 4gb ram and i5 4gen processor you have any solution to solve this problem pls answer
Well I do now that video editing can benefit a lot of having more ram, but the lag issues can just be cause by many of factors since video editing is more Cpu dependent.
@@EJTech. so can you suggest me a light video editor for free please answer
Well I do have a series where I review video editing programs. But I would give Kindle live a shot.
Hi I’m new to video editing,
Looking for a free software where I can edit my videos which one do u advice shotcut or openshot ? Also Can you do a video on how to remove background noise (like fan or ac noise ) in open shot ?
To be honest both video editing programs are solid. However, I would suggest trying both of them out to see which one runs more smoothly on your system either being a Pc or laptop or whatever you are using.
At present I have downloaded openshot, I want to remove background noise? I am unable to find from where to reduce the background noise? I am only able lower down the volume of my video
You should extract the audio form youe footage and use Audacity to edit your audio including removing any background noise.
Is there any free software where I can do directly in the software itself removing the background noise instead of extracting the audio and then using audacity?
@@alankrita9163 use vsdc it's best for video and audio editing
Why does it crash and stutter so much, I have an 8 core with 16 gigs of ram I figured I wouldn't need a super computer to use a simple program..
IKR RIGHT! I am thinking of uninstalling
I had a similar problem, but found a way to make it run much smoother. It didn't crash for me, but was very laggy. Very annoying. Here's a link to how to fix it... th-cam.com/video/-yR5CvqSlRo/w-d-xo.html
