Ladies & Gentlemen, I have so many new & exciting feature announcements, that I have decided to do another feature marathon!!! Starting tonight at 12:00 AM (CST / GMT-6), I will be revealing the first of 4 new features! These are big-time features that OpenShot was missing... until now. Oh yeah, I will also be ...

A new version of the OpenShot Build Wizard is now available that supports AVCHD, H.264, AAC, and MTS. Download the newest version of the build wizard, 1.0.3, and use FFmpeg option 3 (on the step that has three options).

This will download the newest FFmpeg and x264 libraries, and will make the ...

We have added a new menu item for clips (video, image, audio, and image sequence) called "Duplicate". It makes an identical clip on the timeline (every property is preserved, including IN and OUT settings).

Transitions have also received the "Duplicate" menu item. It creates an identical transition (or mask ...

We have added a few new features to our great title editor. Before, we were limited to 2 lines of text (Title & Sub-Title). We have improved it to now introspect the SVG title and allow the user to edit all text elements. Also, it now defaults the values of these text-boxes to the text ...

OpenShot is still a young project, and not many people have heard about it. That's why I'm so excited that a nice story was posted (in French) on www.sum-up.fr. Thanks to Cenwen for putting this together. I really appreciate the help in "spreading the word"!

As you might (or might not) have noticed, there are a few new buttons at the top of www.OpenShotVideo.com. I'm hoping this helps new users get more information about OpenShot much quicker than skimming through a blog.
