Shotcut is a powerful cross-platform video editor that can edit and convert video files in a variety of formats.
One of the main features of Shotcut is the mixing of videos with different resolution and different frame rates. Videos can be placed on a common timeline by simply dragging and dropping, and then making any changes – adjusting the audio, adjusting the colors and white balance, using filters for color saturation or detail. the video.
All changes can be undone and repeated many times. The Shotcut interface is very user-friendly and suitable for both beginners and advanced users.
