OpenShot goes cross-platform

Written by Panos Georgiadis on . Posted in opensource, Software

OpenShot Video Editor is a program designed to create and edit videos on Linux.  It can easily combine multiple video clips, audio clips, and images into a single project, and then export the video into many common video formats. It is a non-linear video editor, which means any frame of video can be accessed at any time, and thus the video clips can be layered, mixed, and arranged in very creative ways.  All video clip edits (trimming, cutting, etc…) are non-destructive, meaning that the original video clips are never modified.

You can use OpenShot to create photo slide shows, edit home videos, create television commercials and on-line films, or anything else you can dream up. However, users of Windows and Mac had never before access to OpenShot, due to dependencies and other technical reasons.  With your help, that is all about to change.

 There is a project in KickStarter for making OpenShot cross-platform software in order to be accessible for both Windows and Mac users. It is estimated for a November / December 2013 beta release date for all 3 platforms, Windows, Mac, and Linux.  Certain level of backers will have access to preview releases, and early access to beta and final releases. The engine has been built from the ground up for cross-platform, multi-threaded performance. It is written in C++, uses cross-platform build tools, and utilizes many amazing open-source libraries, such as FFmpeg & LibAV, JUCE Audio Library, and ImageMagick.

    They might have better luck if they get OpenShot more stable in Linux. THEN they can start thinking about other platforms. It crashes faster than a drunk getting on I-5 at rush hour.

      Hmmm, I can’t recall the latest release ever crashing on me. I’m using version 1.4.3 via PPA on an HP 1035dx AMD 4600m with 7660g graphics. So far I prefer Openshot over Kdenlive because of how stable it is. I have the PPA if you’d like it.

it can be used to talk or chat through the internet,

it is using strong encryption.

but for example TOR is using some obfuscation because some countrys try to block all outgoing connections which can not be scanned with DPI

And the TOR Project is facing an arms race in obfuscation and encryption detection.

You can friend someone if you give him your public Certificate.

both peers must friend each other.

please have a look at this link. it is a FAQ, QuickTip, HowTo, etc etc etc …

If you want to make friends, please use the Chatservers.
#1 https://www.f2f-fr.net/w2c/en/
#2 http://retrosharechatserver.no-ip.org/w2c/en/

if you enter your certificate, the chatserver adds you as his friend and shows his certificate too add him to your friends.

After the connection to the chatservers is established, you can join a few chatrooms where the chatserver is lurking.

in this rooms are other people too help you and make first friends and get into the network.

add friends only with wisdom. if you friend some policeman, it will be problematic like in real life.

best is to add only people you trust in real life or trust from other communitys too. and not to add random unkown strangers.

If you have questions, ask them in the chatlobbys, there is always someone to answer them.

please read http://redd.it/18vsq5

or question me here :)
