New version of Shotcut video editor 20.06.28/XNUMX/XNUMX

New version of free (GPLv3) video editor Shotcut.

The program is developed by the author of the project MLT and uses this framework for video editing.
Support for video/audio formats implemented through ffmpeg.
The program is written in C++, and for the interface is used Qt5.

Highlights in the new release:

• Implemented the use of proxy files (Settings > Proxy) for working with video and images. Proxy (proxy) - low-resolution video files used during editing, instead of the original ones. Working with such files reduces the load on the system and saves the speed of the editing program. When exporting a project, the original files are used. You can use a hardware encoder (nvenc / vaapi) to create proxy files. Details in documentation.
• Added slideshow generator from selected images (Playlist > Menu > Add Selected to Slideshow).
• Added a set of filters bigsh0t to work with spatial (360-degree) video.

New features:

• Added synchronization calibration setting (audio / video) during playback (Settings > Synchronization).
• Added the ability to move files from an external file manager directly to the timeline.
• For fragments from the same source, the function of merging with the next clip has been added to the context menu of the timeline.
• Added flash generator (Open Other > Blip Flash).
• Added filter Wavelets to reduce video noise.
• The ability to select a background color has been added to the rotation, scaling and positioning filters.
• To the filter timer added the ability to show milliseconds.
• Added a return to the original file when reversing a "reverse" clip.
• The F11 key is now responsible for toggling full screen mode.

Plus over 30 bug fixes.
