Added New > Image/Video from HTML: This requires Google Chrome or Chromium. Please see the stock Presets for examples. It defaults to a transparent background! The stock presets also demonstrate a template facility for up to 3 lines of text. You can make your own templates by using %1, %2, or %3 as placeholders in the Body field. It is designed to make it easy to copy from codepen.io, but Shotcut does not include pre-preprocessors for things like SCSS or TypeScript. Therefore, in codepen.io click the V button in the top right corner of the edit block to choose View Compiled before copying. This does not support WebGL or embedded video. Generate Video is limited to 15 frame-per-second for performance reasons. A somewhat modern or fast computer and SSD hard drive are recommended. Generate automatically opens the result in the Source viewer so you can preview it with its HTML for revising if needed. Once you add it to Playlist or Timeline, Properties now reflects the image or video and no longer shows the HTML inputs. Added Text to Speech to Notes and Subtitles: This uses Docker like a plugin framework. The engine for this is Kokorodoki, and the model is Kokoro--both of which are not made by us. Do not ask us for more languages or voices. There are Docker installers for Windows and macOS from docker.com. For Linux, it is usually preferable to get it from your distribution but ensure you get the real docker and not podman or the desktop icon dock bar. On Debian-based systems, it is the docker.io package. The quality with subtitles is heavily dependent upon the timing and duration of each item. If it sounds choppy or cut-off, you either need to increase the speech speed and/or the item durations. Also, multi-line subtitle items are discouraged because that introduces a pause as it thinks it is like a new paragraph. Added New > Screen Snapshot and Screen Recording: On Windows, Screen Recording simply launches Windows' Snipping Tool provided by Microsoft. It does not |

Fixed export with '&' in the file path or name. Fixed alpha channel decoding Ut Video with alpha channel. Fixed starting the Linux AppImage if AppImageLauncher is installed. Fixed Rejoin with Next Clip duplicates filters. The default for Settings > Time Format changed to Clock. Some under-the-hood changes in preparation for further end-to-end 10-bit processing on the CPU, but the user visible effect in this version is a different set of blending modes in track properties and the Blend Mode video filter. Changed Export > Search to include file name extension. Added a Text: Typewriter video filter. Added Open With and Reload to Properties. You can think of this as "Edit With" especially useful for images and audio files. There is a file watcher upon opening with another tool as long as selection (Properties) does not change. If it does, you can use Reload. This does not reload--whether manual or automatic--every clip object based on this file. Added Text to Speech to Notes and Subtitles. This uses Docker as like a plugin framework. The engine for this is Kokorodoki, and the model is Kokoro--both of which are not made by us. Do not ask us for more languages or voices.

Added a Whisper.cpp (GGML) model downloader to the Speech to Text dialog. A model is no longer included in the download and installation reducing their sizes. Improved the System theme to follow the operating system palette on Windows (darker and more contrast), and improved its appearance on macOS dark mode. Added Settings > Theme > System Fusion that combines the operating system palette with the monochrome, symbolic icons of the Fusion themes.Added an Outline video filter that uses the input alpha channel--useful with rich text or assets with a transparent background. This means that, like Drop Shadow, it will not work as expected when used after a text filter on a video or image clip. Rather, you must use a text clip (transparent color generator with text filter) on an upper track. Other New Features: Added the ability to drag the waveform peak line to adjust audio gain. Added Settings > Timeline > Adjust Clip Gain/Volume to turn off the above. Added rolling an edit/trim to Timeline: Hold Ctrl (command on macOS) while trimming to simultaneously trim the neighbor clip. Added a Soft Focus filter set. Added Audio/Video duration to the Slideshow Generator dialog, defaults to 4 hours. This facilitates using Slideshow Generator to make transitions between everything when including both video and images. (It still respects the source duration and in & out points; duration here is a maximum.) Surround Sound Mixing Improvements: Added fader and surround balance to the Balance audio filter if channels > 2. Added support for 4 channels in the Copy Channel audio filter. Added Channels toggle buttons to many audio filters: Band Pass Compressor Delay Downmix Equalizer: 3-Band Equalizer: 15-Band Equalizer: Parametric Expander Gain/Volume High Pass Low Pass Limiter Mute Noise Gate Notch For example, now you can: Copy stereo music to the rear channels and use the fader in the Balance filter to reduce its volume, Downmix spoken word into the center channel and appl |
