The release of the video editor Shotcut 24.04 is available, which is developed by the author of the MLT project and uses this framework to organize video editing. Support for video and audio formats is implemented through FFmpeg. It is possible to use plugins with the implementation of video and audio effects compatible with Frei0r and LADSPA. One of the features of Shotcut is the possibility of multi-track editing with arranging video from fragments in various source formats, without the need to first import or re-encode them. There are built-in tools for creating screencasts, processing images from a web camera and receiving streaming video. Qt is used to build the interface. The code is written in C++ and distributed under the GPLv3 license. Ready-made builds are available for Linux (AppImage, flatpak and snap), macOS and Windows.
Among the changes in the new release:
- Added a filter with implementation of a surround sound encoder based on Ambisonic technology.
- New Audio Vector and Audio Surround widgets have been added to the Added View > Scopes menu.
- Added the ability to change the time format when displaying and editing. To change the format, a “Time Format” setting has been added (Settings > Time Format).
- The ability to rollback (Undo/Redo) operations of adding, deleting and changing key frames using filters has been implemented:
- Fade In/Out Audio
- Gain / Volume (“Gain / Volume”)
- Brightness
- Sorting by color (“Color Grading”)
- Contrast
- Fade In/Out Video
- Text: RTF (“Text: Rich”)
- Size, Position & Rotate
- White Balance
- When working with multiple selected clips, you can use the “Apply copied filters” operation from the context menu or the editor in the timeline menu (“Timeline > menu > Edit”).
- The MLT framework has been updated to version 7.24.0.
