  • hey guys since we're starving for Content I made this hope you enjoy
    Other free tools I have tried in the past include Kdenlive and Shotcut. Tried Lightworks way back, too, but their free version is now not much better than Filmora. Got one eye on Olive, too, but it's very much still in beta. Source: 10 months ago
  • Is there anything that proprietary software can do and has no open alternative?
    Also, keep an eye on https://olivevideoeditor.org/ for video editing. It is still in Beta, but looks very promising. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Help (filmora is shitty)
    My video editor of choice is Kdenlive. It's modeled after Adobe Premiere (more or less), and has a bit of a learning curve. Olive is another promising option, but similarly tricky to master. Openshot is a pretty easy editor that works similarly. All of them are free and open source. Davinci Resolve is a professional-grade editor, and free, but not open source. Source: over 1 year ago
  • open source video editor that has frame blending when exporting like Adobe Premiere and Vegas pro?
    You could try olive 0.2 . I do not know if it does exactly what you want. Source: over 1 year ago
  • looking for a free video editing software for simple tasks like crop, cut, trim, convert and merge. any recommendations ?
    I've used Olive in the past. Looking at their site it seems they're in the middle of a rewrite. Not sure how far along their feature set is. Source: over 1 year ago
  • DaVinci Resolve 18
    > As a hobby videographer using Ubuntu I find myself switching between Kdenlive and Davinci Resolve, depending on the size and complexity of the project. For a small 30-second clip I like the more approachable, simple workflow of Kdenlive but holiday videos with a hundred or more cuts work much better with Davinci for me. What about FLOSS Olive video editor?[0,1] As for me, for a small 30-second clip... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
  • Video editing frustration (any advice?)
    Olive 0.2 actually works ok for this and is reasonably performant. https://olivevideoeditor.org/. Source: about 2 years ago
  • Open source, my beloved
    Olive video editor keep in mind it's still in alpha so it's bound to have some bugs/crashes and it won't have as many features, but if you don't do super complex editing it's a solid alternative already. Source: over 2 years ago
  • Open source, my beloved
    Olive video editor, it's the editor I used to make this video, it's really awesome! Now if you'll excuse me I have to praise it, I cannot contain myself. It started out in 0.1 as an editor with the common workflow of filters and all that and then when the dev saw that it started to pick up he decided he would rewrite it from scratch to follow a more flexible approach, so in 0.2 he made the shift to node based...

  • Video editing software?
    Last but not least, I would check out Olive Editor. It's free, open source, and looks strikingly similar to Adobe Premiere. The only drawback is that its in its Alpha stage of testing making it super buggy. If they ever come out with an official release though, Final Cut and Adobe better watch out.

  • What’s a “boring” hobby that’s not boring at all?
    Definitely don't know about 'best' since I'm a total noob, but I just started using olive. It's free and open source, so that's neat. Source: about 3 years ago
  • Discovering Linux
    You guys may have already heard of it, but I wanted to share an Open Source Project in the works that I think is worth watching. It's a video editor called Olive, and it's something I could totally see myself using as my go-to editor over Kdenlive soon. My only complaint right now is that it crashes too often for me to rely on it for bigger videos, but I think it has potential to become the best FOSS video editor... Source: about 3 years ago
  • Hello everyone! I have a small question! It's related to the M1 Macbook Air!
    Hello everyone! I have a small question! It's related to the M1 Macbook Air! So, I plan to get the M1 Macbook Air, but there's a small question I have. Would it work with the video editor called Olive? I am a small YouTuber, and I would be using OBS and StreamLabs to record videos and stream on Youtube, and maybe in the future Twitch. I would be getting the M1 Macbook Air with 8 GB of Ram, 7 Core GPU, and 256 GB... Source: about 3 years ago
