Shotcut is a comprehensive open source and cross platform video editing program for Windows, Linux and macOS. It uses FFmpeg and therefore has support for the most common audio and video formats. The files are not imported, but are edited in their original format. It can handle different tracks and a mix of formats and resolutions can be used within a project. Version 21.02.27 of Shotcut has been released with the following changes and improvements:

New

  • Added a file naming dialog for Export > From > Each Playlist Item > Export File.
