My Kdenlive video editor continues to save wherever I want it to for free. Just saying.
And yes, it has a Windows version, if you’re too much of a coward to migrate to Linux.
PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca 2 weeks ago
Kdenlive is wild. It’s got almost all the features Adobe premiere has.
Cosmonaut_Collin@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
The best feature they’ve kept out is the subscription you have to pay to cancel.

TIL microslop provided a video editing tool post 2020
TIL it’s been enshittified to the point of not bothering to ever use it

In case this is something of a deal breaker for someone, please try setting up a VM and playing around with Linux. You don’t need to install it on your main system, or try dual booting it, but load up a VM and give it a shot. You don’t have to stick with it and if you don’t like it or it doesn’t work for you or it’s too confusing or whatever, that’s fine. At least you can say that you gave it a shot.
OwOarchist@pawb.social 2 weeks ago
You don’t even need Linux. Kdenlive has a Windows version.

Free movie editing on windows peaked on fucking vista.
the_riviera_kid@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I miss windows movie maker, it was so simple and effective. Of course thats probably why they killed it.

I didn’t use it when it was “free”. I sure as hell won’t use when it’s tied to OneDrive, which can die in a pit fire.

How long until Microsoft stops supporting Clipchamp altogether? Place your bets.

The program now requires video projects to be saved to Microsoft’s OneDrive cloud storage service in order to continue editing them, reports Windows Latest.
According to Microsoft, the media files themselves (such as video clips and images) don’t necessarily need to be synced to the cloud.
This is less shitty than I expected. Forcing people to put videos and images in OneDrive could have pushed them towards paying for more OneDrive space, but if it’s just the project file I’m not even sure why Microsoft made the change. Are ClipChamp project files big?

It is so they can have the data for AI training on their servers.
OwOarchist@pawb.social 2 weeks ago
I’m not even sure why Microsoft made the change.
Just think of all that lovely video information for their AI to harvest…
ryper@lemmy.ca 2 weeks ago
How much video information does a project file even have though? Like, if it’s just instructions for editing together the video clips, that aren’t even being uploaded, that doesn’t seem very useful for AI training.

@commander
OpenShot
ShotCut
Davinci Resolve (free version)
No real reason to use clipchamp...
db2@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
No real reason to use Winslop 11 either though.
comador@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I wish that were true, but it’s not.
As a UNIX Admin w/ 30+ years of UNIX admin experience, I am literally required to use Windows 11 for work.
Yes, I have my Fedora system running XFCE for work too (it’s also my vagrant test bed), but I like millions of others am required to use winslop and it’s how work requirements go sometimes.
foodandart@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
Truth.
Am still clinging to Win 10 Pro. Since I mostly game with the PC, and watch videos with that machine… do I really need to upgrade the OS as long as the games run? At least at this point, I won’t get a gaming session interrupted by an update anymore, which is nice.
Larry@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
Kdenlive too.
I switched to kdenlive after I couldn’t get Davinci to function properly on linux
Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 2 weeks ago
Blender has a Video Editing mode UI mode too.

I’m not sure how it compares all I do in terms of editing is typically shortening video files. So if it’s missing features people would expect, I likely wouldn’t even know
Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 2 weeks ago
Whoops that version was slightly out of date… by 5¾ years.
But I can now confirm it’s still in there in modern versions Image
WereCat@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I use it at work, works fine for basic stuff. I can’t install anything on work PC but Blender can be downloaded and used in a portable version. IT hates this one trick
Joelk111@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
DaVinci is also a one time payment with lifetime updates if you want the premium features, no stupid subscription or rebuying when the new version releases.
The worst part about it is that it doesn’t officially support Linux very well.
SomeGadgetGuy@techhub.social 2 weeks ago
@Joelk111 I've been on Resolve since 15! Never spent another dime on it.
I only include the free version in conversations like these, because if you were gonna use something like Clipchamp, you probably didn't need all the extra features of Resolve Studio.
nightlily@leminal.space 2 weeks ago
ShotCut is my personal favourite of those. Simple but powerful, though the UI is admittedly clunky.
