The results aren’t quite as super fluid as in big-name video editors, but you can get some acceptable post-shoot video smoothing if you play around with the smoothing window values. Stabilisation is, however, present and working. You’ll get a (not catastrophic) error about an ‘incorrect path to class name file’.

The ‘object detector’ effect, for instance, doesn’t work “out of the box” as it requires the manual installation of additional files that editor can’t bundle up in its installer. However, there are a few caveats to a few of these effects. These include some impressive-sounding motion tracking and object detection capabilities, plus configurable stabilisation effect to (try to) straighten out any shaky footage. OpenShot 2.6.0 is the first update to this popular open source video editor this year, but it looks to have been well worth the wait.īundled up inside the latest build are new ‘computer vision and AI’ effects. A new version of the OpenShot video editor is now available to download - and it’s boasting some colossal sounding improvements.
