Completely agree with your verdict. Kdenlive is a typical kde program in that it has tons of settings, but not user friendly defaults and it's hard to use because it's too confusing with too many options and buttons and stuff. And shotcut seems to be more for color grading stuff and who knows and has also a very confusing user interface. Openshot is great, but maybe the default title length should be halved. These are kinda long.
Well a lot of people use Kdenlive but I didn't find it very user friendly at all. Shotcut has very limited functions. You can only join video clips together but you cannot add titles to the video. I find that Openshot is the best one because is easy to use and has a lot of the features that Windows Movie Maker has got. Openshot has the option to add transitions, fade in and fade out effects and titles just like Movie Maker has. So anybody who has use Windows Movie Maker or Windows Live Movie Maker will find Openshot easy to use or lean to use. Openshot has been around for a long time and there is a Windows version. So I could have used it on Windows but then I had Windows Movie Maker so I never thought of using Openshot. Now that I am on Linux of course Windows Movie Maker doesn't work. So I had to find an alternative and Openshot fits the bill as it is a lot like Movie Maker. The only thing it doesn't have is the record from the webcam feature and the credits feature where the titles slide up the screen or sideways.Which Windows Live Movie Maker has but you can't have everything.
Just a little suggestion : make your title cards less long (about half as long) and it would be perfect. You can also record your face separately from your screenshare and use a picture-in-picture effect to overlay your camera over the screenshare
I am using Guvcview to record my webcam and I use Kazam or Simple Screen Recorder to record my desktop. Depending on which laptop I am on. I made the webcam clip separate then I joined it together with the other clips in Openshot to make the video. The cards are a You Tube feature that anyone can add to their videos. I don't think there is any way to control how long they display. I think you mean the end screen clips which is another You Tube feature you can also add.
Shotcut did work for me after a lot of fiddling around but it lacks the add titles and fade in and out features that Openshot has. Openshot is betters as it is the one that is the most like Windows Movie Maker and Windows Live Movie Maker. Which is what I was using when I was on Windows. I am on Linux now so no Windows Movie Maker because there is no way to get it to work on Linux. So now I use Openshot.
Openshot is very basic video editor. Kdenlive is an advanced professional video editor. It has steep learning curve. But once you master it, you will be a perfect technical person and can handle any complicated software in this earth.
I did manage to drag the video to the timeline in the end. In 38:34 in the window where it said "export help" you will see it has "timeline" enabled. So I think in Shotcut you have to create a profile or enable the setting before it will let you drag any videos to the timeline. Yet there was no user guide to explain that. Shotcut is no as user friendly as Openshot also Shotcut does not have as many features as Openshot has. That's one of the reasons I don't use Shotcut on my computer. Openshot is better.
I disagree. You can make videos with openshot and they are easy for people who are not looking to have advanced editing which I understand *but*, I think shotcut is a very good video editing software if you learn how to use it . There are many tutorials and guides on how to use video editors but you only really stuck to what you knew with openshot which was titles.. but don't take this as some sort of hate comment, I love your videos and I will continue to watch them.
Both Videos editors work. I did have some problems getting Shotcut to run as you can see in the video. I didn't see any option or settings to add titles. Maybe there is or you have to create them yourself with another program then upload them to Shotcut the same way you import video clips. Windows Movie Maker 1 the first version for Windows ME did not have the tiles feature. You could only join video clips together. Some other video editors also only have this but there are others that do. there are many video editors for Linux that you can use. It's a case of trying them and then see which one you like best and many of them also work on Windows. So you do have a choice.
Yes Debian Bookworm does come with Kernel 6.1 but if you install Debian backports repositories then update you get Kernel 6.10. You can also update your whole system with backports as I have done. I did a video about this here:ruclips.net/video/XDF2CB-q60M/видео.html&t
@@AndreaBorman Oh... didn't know that... oh well... I am runninmg Debian Testing in a virtual machine though... the host machine is happily running Linux Mint... :-) For some reason the backports repository already existed in the /etc/ap/sources.list when I upgraded to debian testing... to my knowledge I didn't add packports... :-) Or perhaps the Testing added them on its own...
@@thiesenf I have got Debian Trixie as well on the other laptop which is Debian Testing. Testing is different because you get the repositories from Debian Trixie which is what will be Debian 13 when it is released. I still have repositories from Debian Bookworm as well as Trixie because I upgraded from Bookworm. But I removed the Debian Bookworm backports because I don't need them now that I am on Trixie. Once you upgrade to Trixie which is Testing you are not on Bookworm anymore. So you don't need the Backports. But you will still have the main repositories from Bookworm because Debian uses that as well as the repositories from Trixie both to update and install software. The Linux Mint LMDE version of Debian uses Bookworm as well as the Mint repositories. So I don't know if Mint will be compatible with Trixie as it it not pure Debian. I did two video on which I installed Debian trixie on my two other laptops. One with Gnome and the other with KDE.
Openshot is very much like Windows Movie Maker. It has a lot of the features that Movie Maker had. Except that it runs better because I am on Linux. So I don't get the freezes and the crashes that I used to get with Windows 8. I am happy to have found something that works for me on Linux and has the same features I am used to. Openshot is actually better than Windows Movie Maker. I don't think Windows Movie Maker or Windows Live Movie Maker is supported on Windows 11. So Windows users can use Openshot as there is also a version for Windows.

I use Shotcut and it works well for my needs. Might need to play around with the configuration to setup things more to ones liking. Nice review.

I've used Kdenlive. It's so complicated I had to take, and refer to notes to remember how to preform basic functions.
Oh dear, I can't take a video editor seriously when they hide the timeline window. That's not user-friendly is it?
I did manage to drag the video to the timeline in the end. In 38:34 in the window where it said "export help" you will see it has "timeline" enabled.

How did you get Linux 6.10.7 in Debian Bookworm?
To my knowledge Bookworm only have like 6.1.* something?
Unless you're using Testing?
Yes Debian Bookworm does come with Kernel 6.1 but if you install Debian backports repositories then update you get Kernel 6.10. You can also update your whole system with backports as I have done. I did a video about this here:ruclips.net/video/XDF2CB-q60M/видео.html&t
