Speech to Text$$$Shotcut gets its first AI based on OpenAIs Whisper; courtesy of the whisper.cpp project.$$$This is available through Subtitles > Speech to Text menu item or button: Speech to Text icon.$$$$$$Our builds include a basic model that has decent speed and accuracy but not a big size. (You can think of the model as the brain.)$$$You can download a bigger and better better brain (model) in ggml format and configure it in the Speech to Text dialog; but it will be slower.$$$The dialog creates two jobs that appear in the Jobs panel: one to export audio and another to convert to text.$$$The results are added to the Subtitles panel as a new top-level Subtitle Track.$$$Currently; the only GPU our build supports is Apple Silicon. Otherwise; it is heavily multi-threaded on the CPU.$$$Known quirk: subtitle items sometimes start earlier than expected. Timing is provided by the model and tool; and we lack the skills and resources to improve this.$$$Expect there to be occasional errors. Like humans and non-ideal conditions; it is not perfect. We will not take action on bug reports about some piece of audio not converting to the expected text.$$$OpenAI has made some warnings about the usage of their Whisper models:$$$In particular; we caution against using Whisper models to transcribe recordings of individuals taken without their consent.... We recommend against use in high-risk domains like decision-making contexts; where flaws in accuracy can lead to pronounced flaws in outcomes.$$$$$$Transition Improvements$$$Ripple Delete a transition restores the entirety of the clips included in the transition.$$$Lift (non-ripple delete) a transition no longer leaves a gap; the gap is filled with the adjacent clips.$$$Moving an adjacent clip away increases the transition duration instead of detaching and leaving a gap.$$$Other Improvements$$$Removed the Export > Video > Resample button. Now; there are simply ignorable inline warnings when making certain changes.$$$Added File > Show Project in Folder to menu.$$$Added a decimals <number> option to numeric keywords in the GPS Text video filter.$$$Changed Recent Projects to Projects: items in this view no longer disappear as Recent reaches its maximum length and old items are removed.$$$Added a Remove action to the context menu in Projects.$$$Hide the Reframe video filter and button if GPU Effects is on.$$$Upgraded FFmpeg to version 7.1.$$$Fixes$$$Fixed a crash doing when doing more than one Playlist > menu > Add Selected to Slideshow. In theory; this could fix other random crashes in Timeline.$$$Fixed a crash opening a project containing a subtitle track with no items.$$$Fixed odd value for computed width in Reframe output video filter causes export to fail.$$$Fixed Reframe visual control can create odd-valued dimensions.$$$Fixed AVCHD video frame rate is double (could fix other formats).$$$Fixed making a proxy video for a iPhone 16 Pro video containing spatial audio.$$$Fixed GPU filters paste below non-GPU filters.$$$Fixed Slideshow Generator dialog is too tall with vertical video mode.$$$Fixed GPS Offset would reset in GPS Text video filter.$$$Fixed the maximum allowed Time in the Time Remap filter to prevent white frames.

Fixes For Major New Bugs$$$This is a quick followup release to version 24.08 that introduced a few major new bugs:$$$$$$Fixed seeking and frozen video with some files or scenarios.$$$Fixed Reverb audio filter missing on Windows.$$$Fixed wrong frame rate for Android Camera videos.$$$Other Fixes$$$Fixed some issues with Timeline > Clip > Apply Copied Filters.$$$Fixed keyframes are added when not intended in Color Grading video filter.$$$Fixed color in Export > Presets > stills > JPEG preset.$$$Fixed audio-only WMA file with DTS audio not playing.$$$Improvements$$$Added Increase Text Size and Decrease Text Size to the context menu for Notes.$$$You can also use Ctrl with the mouse wheel.$$$Added a Reframe video filter (Output only) and Export > Video > Reframe button.$$$Added Export > Video > Resample with warning dialog to enable the oft-misused export video resolution; aspect ratio; and frame rate fields.$$$Added a warning dialog when changing Settings > Video Mode or Timeline > Output > Edit with a project open.$$$Upgraded MLT to version 7.28.0.

v24.08 Latest$$$$$$Subtitles$$$Added View > Subtitles.$$$Added Subtitle Burn In video filter (only works on Output track).$$$The Subtitles panel can be used to add subtitles to a project. Subtitles can only be added to the Timeline. They can not be added to the playlist or clips. We recommend to save subtitle editing until the timeline editing is complete because moving or cutting clips on the timeline will break the subtitle synchronization.$$$$$$To start editing subtitles; click the add button and give the subtitle track and name and language. After the subtitle track is created the subtitle track area will appear in the timeline above the top video track. Multiple subtitle tracks can be added. But only the currently selected subtitle track is shown in the Subtitle Panel and the Timeline.$$$$$$Click the Add subtitle button to make a new subtitle item at the cursor position. Then type in the Current text area to add the text.$$$$$$Subtitles can also be imported. Supported subtitle import formats include: SRT; VTT; ASS; and SSA. Subtitles are imported at the current cursor position. So be sure to place the cursor before importing subtitles from a file.

New Stuff$$$Added SVT-AV1 encoder (faster non-hardware AV1 encoder).$$$Added support for AVIF (AV1) images.$$$Added a Drop Shadow video filter that uses the input alpha channel. (This means that it will not work as expected when used after a text filter on a video clip; rather; you must use a text clip on an upper track.)$$$Added a Vibrance video filter. This is similar to Saturation; but Vibrance is sensitive to the current saturation instead of adjusting all values equally as in saturation. This is especially helpful to prevent affecting skin tones.$$$Added the Mid-Side Matrix audio filter for processing these kinds of microphones into proper stereo sound.$$$Added Keyframes > Scrub While Dragging.$$$Added Playlist > menu > Columns.$$$Added support for DJI LRF (MP4) files as a proxy.$$$Fixes and Changes$$$Improved handling for some variable frame rate videos. Now; Properties tries to show the files target frame rate and extends the variable detection logic to include strange average frame rate values (what previous versions showed in Properties).$$$Changed Playlist Tiles view mode to show Date instead of In/Start.$$$Fixed using graphics (text; image; etc.) on upper video track with GPU Effects.$$$Fixed an off-by-one frame bug in the duration for Glaxnimate animations.

Enhancements$$$Added Ambisonic Encoder audio filter.$$$Added View > Scopes > Audio Vector.$$$Added View > Scopes > Audio Surround.$$$Added Settings > Time Format to affect everywhere that timecode is displayed or editable.$$$Added a indication to the on-video control for the Ambisonic Decoder audio filter.$$$Added Edit > Undo and Redo support for adding; removing; and changing Keyframes (work in progress) for the following filters:$$$Fade In Audio$$$Fade Out Audio$$$Gain / Volume$$$Brightness$$$Color Grading$$$Contrast$$$Fade In Video$$$Fade Out Video$$$Text: Rich$$$Size; Position & Rotate$$$White Balance$$$Added Apply Copied Filters to Timeline > menu > Edit and context menu that works with multiple selected clips.$$$Upgraded MLT to version 7.24.0.$$$Fixes$$$Fixed crash if the Keyframes panel is in a tab group along with Filters.$$$Fixed Elastic Scale video filter can distort with preview scaling.$$$Fixed dropping incompatible video file may not prompt conversion.$$$Fixed color in Properties > Convert > Best if input video is BT.709 without signaling.$$$Some fixes for Settings > Audio Channels > 4 (quad).$$$Fixed changes in Filters cannot after moving the clip on the Timeline.$$$Fixed Zoom Timeline to Fit sometimes incorrect.$$$Fixed batch analysis for Stabilize video filter on export with project folder.

v24.02$$$$$$Ambisonic Audio$$$Ambisonic spatial (spherical) audio is often used with 360° video whether output as spherical or reframed to a rectangle. Adding support for Ambisonic facilitates 360° video workflows with Shotcut.$$$$$$But also the new Ambisonic Decoder audio filter is part of an affordable; simple way to record (e.g. GoPro MAX; Zoom H3-VR) Ambisonic audio and convert it to 5.1 surround. FYI; YouTube supports 5.1 surround on most TV-oriented devices (smart TVs; streaming boxes; game consoles). And Windows has something called Sonic to listen to surround through headphones. The new filter can also be used to listen to Ambisonic through headphones (binaural); to rotate the sound when you rotate spherical video; and to pan stereo or surround audio output for reframed 360° video.$$$$$$Added Settings > Audio Channels > 4 (quad/Ambisonics).$$$Added Ambisonic Decoder audio filter that converts to binaural; stereo; quad; Ambisonic; or 5.1 surround. When Ambisonic mode is chosen; it is an Ambisonic panner.$$$Added Ambisonic metadata to Set Equirectangular if there is a track with 4 audio channels.$$$Added Copy Parameters to 360 video filters to use with Ambisonic Decoder > Paste Parameters.$$$Shotcut only supports first order Ambisonics at this time.$$$More New Stuff$$$Added support for AMD AV1 hardware encoder on Windows (av1_amf) and Linux (av1_vaapi).$$$Added automatic vertical scrolling to Timeline when moving a track.$$$Added changing Properties > Duration on image clips on the Timeline (behavior depends on Ripple similar to changing Properties > Speed on an audio/video clip).$$$Fixes and Changes$$$Upgraded macOS and Windows to Qt version 6.5.3; which changes the mininum macOS version to 11.$$$Stop automatically grouping audio/video clips when Detach Audio (changed in v24.01).$$$Improved selection in Timeline after various operations.$$$Improved behavior changing Properties > Speed with Timeline > Ripple on.$$$Improved the speed of opening a timeline project.$$$Fixed Filters > + > Sets adds audio filters in reverse order (broke in v24.01).$$$Fixed Properties > Convert HLG HDR to to Rec. 709 SDR is not tone-mapping (broke in v23.09).$$$Fixed distortion caused by Mixdown audio filter.$$$Fixed Normalize: One Pass audio filter maximizing levels at start of playback.$$$Fixed old custom presets in text and timer video filters load with 0% opacity.$$$Fixed Loop Selection on the last clip of Timeline not looping.$$$Fixed Enter Full Screen and Preferences shortcuts on macOS.$$$Fixed problematic filename characters in Settings > Video Mode > Custom Add.$$$Fixed disabling the last audio or video filter when there is a time filter in Filters.$$$Fixed File > Exit is slow or hangs if a job in Jobs is paused.$$$Fixed Wave video filter distorts if Settings > Preview Scaling is on.$$$Fixed incorrect gamma in preview player and File > Export > Frame when GPU Effects is on.

New Stuff$$$Added Player > Loop (\) and Player > Set Loop Range to the menu and player controls.$$$Added Timeline > Selection > Group/Ungroup (Ctrl+G; command+G on macOS).$$$This is basically a saved multi-selection system. So; the operations it supports are all those available for multiple selection. That does not include trim; Filters; or Properties at this time.$$$Added support for multiple selection to Split At Playhead.$$$Added Timeline > Edit > Split All Tracks At Playhead (Shift+S).$$$Added Edit > Undo and Redo support for adding; removing; changing; and disabling Filters.$$$Added Timeline > Edit > Nudge Forward (.) and Nudge Backward (;).$$$Added Pause and Resume to the context menu in Jobs.$$$Added Settings > Backup with options for:$$$Manually$$$Hourly$$$Daily (default)$$$Weekly$$$This creates a backup of the current project file in a manner similar to File > Backup and Save except it is automatic now unless Manually is chosen.$$$Added File > Other Versions submenu that tries to find similarly-named project files in the same folder create by Shotcut backup or recovery mechanisms.$$$Added Settings > Player > Audio API on Linux and Windows.$$$Basically; this makes the --SDL_AUDIODRIVER command line option available in the Settings menu.$$$Added a Previous button to View > Application Log dialog that goes to the log file created by the previous app session.$$$Now; on startup; Shotcut makes a backup of shotcut-log.txt to shotcut-log.bak.$$$Added a Copy button to all text viewer dialogs that does the same thing that the non-obvious Select All and Copy actions in the context menu.$$$Fixes and Changes$$$Fixed a possible crash when opening project.$$$Fixed a crash in Playlist > menu > Add Selected to Slidewhow when something is playing.$$$Fixed a possible crash in Timeline > Split or trim actions if the clip has certain filters with keyframes.$$$Fixed some bugs in Undo after moving clips on the Timeline.$$$Fixed sometimes (25 fps) frames are dropped and others repeated in Export on macOS.$$$Fixed proxy generation failing with NVENC if Settings > Proxy > Use Hardware Encoder is on.$$$Fixed proxy generation failing for videos with full range color on macOS with Settings > Proxy > Use Hardware Encoder turned on.$$$Fixed 10-bit Export with NVENC (NVIDIA) encoders.$$$Fixed Layers > New > Emoji is disabled in Glaxnimate on Windows.$$$Fixed distort mode in Size & Position GPU filter.$$$Fixed zombie values in Time Remap filter while working with keyframes.$$$Fixed saving B frames in custom Export preset with hardware encoder.$$$Fixed toggling Export > Use hardware encoder resets all options to defaults.$$$Fixed Export > Each Playlist Item > Directory incorrectly shows a filename.$$$Fixed intermittent crash moving a clip on the Timeline.$$$Fixed Playlist > Select All and Remove All are disabled until selection changes.$$$Fixed some filter parameters sliders may overflow using new keyframe easings that over- or under-shoot.$$$Changed the name of the Declick time filter to Declick Audio.$$$Changed the player controls to automatically adapt to 2 rows so the In Point and Selected Duration show more reliably.$$$Changed the low memory warning dialog to automatically close itself when the free memory becomes high enough.$$$Changed the low memory detection to automatically pause and resume a currently running job as the free memory becomes too low and then high enough again.$$$Changed Timeline > Detach Audio to automatically create a group.$$$Changed the Jobs log viewer to automatically and scroll to the end if it is left open while a job is running.$$$Changed the Slideshow Generator to remember all options.$$$Changed the splitter between UI panels to be easier to find and grab to drag.

v23.12 Latest$$$Fixed crash on start on Wayland on Ubuntu 22.04 and 23.10 - may require installing qt6-wayland package (broke in v23.11).$$$This breaks support for Wayland on Ubuntu 23.04; which is a less important version than the other two.$$$The combination of Wayland and Qt 6 seems impossible to handle universally in the portable/AppImage/Snap binary bundle. If installing a Qt 6 Wayland package does not work in your distro; some options are to login using an X session instead of Wayland or try the Flatpak.$$$Fixed numerous audio filters missing on macOS/Intel (broke in v23.11).$$$Fixed crash in No Sync video filter with new Ease Back and Ease Elastic keyframes.$$$Fixed Equalizer: Parametric > Preset not loading (broke in v23.09).$$$Fixed Slideshow Generator not padding videos on mismatching aspect ratio (broke in v23.09).$$$Fixed Timeline waveform is not updated when changing Properties > Audio > Track.$$$Fixed #filename# and #basename# keywords in Text: Simple video filter with non-ASCII filenames on Windows.$$$Fixed Properties > View Bitrate opens too big on high DPI screen.$$$Fixed Properties > View Bitrate > Save image is not anti-aliased.$$$Fixed Properties > Measure Video Quality accuracy when Color range is Full.$$$Fixed some minor memory leaks.$$$Changed all NVENC hardware encoders in Export to use CQ instead of constant QP for VBR rate control.$$$Ugraded FFmpeg to version 6.1$$$Upgraded AV1 decoder dav1d to version 1.4 and AV1 encoder libaom-av1 to version 3.8.0$$$Upgraded rubberband audio pitch library to version 3.3.0

This is an old bug; and Shotcut is not deleting the files. But it accepts a move drop action for the purpose of reordering playlist items. However; doing so with a list of filenames makes Windows assume the receiving application did something appropriate with thes file and then... delete them on behalf of the app just to be sure?!? Smooth move. (Another Windows file manager Directory Opus does not exhibit this bad behavior.)$$$Fixed another very old bug on Windows where sound does not follow the default output device; for example plugging headphones; until you restart the app. Please note that if you are using Settings > Audio Channels > 6 (5.1) after the default sound output changes; you will likely experience distortion in the audio playback until you restart the app.$$$Added the --SDL_AUDIODRIVER command line option for Windows and Linux.$$$Fixed appending to Playlist from clipboard with nothing yet opened in the Source player.$$$Fixed the Export > Audio > Quality range for the aac codec.$$$Fixed trying to drag a keyframe vertically may snap changing its horizontal position.$$$Fixed clicking OK in a color dialog on Windows without changing anything resets the alpha to 255.$$$Fixed top-field-first interlaced output.$$$Improvements$$$Added Track Auto Fade and Track Seam audio filters. These filters address an old problem where clicks and pops may be heard in export when switching between clips due to discontinuities in the audio stream. A recommended technique was to add a 2 frame Fade Audio Out and Fade Audio in filters on clips. Track Auto Fade automates that. Track Seam works on a similar level but rather attempts to do a smoothing between outgoing and incoming samples around edit points. Both of these new filters may ONLY be added to individual tracks—audio or video.$$$Added Transition type > Cut to the Slideshow Generator.$$$Added Ctrl+Wheel (command on macOS) to numeric fields to increment and decrement by a larger amount.$$$Updated Qt libraries to version 6.4.3.$$$Updated libebur128 to version 1.2.6.$$$Updated rubberband library to version 3.2.1.$$$Updated MLT to version 7.18.0.

This release is mainly to fix recent bugs:$$$$$$Fixed including sub-project with Open MLT XML as Clip breaks the project (broke in v22.10).$$$Fixed custom transition preview in Properties degrades quality and accuracy of the transition preview in the player (bug in v22.09).$$$Fixed memory leak in the transition Properties and Slideshow Generator previews (bug in v22.09).$$$Fixed crash when using the --appdata command line option (broke in v22.09).$$$Fixed dragging multiple selection in Timeline does not show all selected clips (broke in v22.09).$$$Fixed huge memory consumption when using certain filters before keyframes on the Size; Position & Rotate filter: Corner Pin; Mask: Simple Shape.$$$Fixed Alt (option on macOS) not suspending snapping in filter rectangle controls.$$$Fixed updating the filter UI value when deleting a keyframe.$$$Improved sound quality of Pitch compensation and Pitch audio filter.$$$Added Reset on discontinuity option to the Normalize: One Pass audio filter.

This is a hot fix for release 22.10 to reverse Performance improvement in Timeline for when there is opaque clip on a track above another clip; which caused a change in behavior considered a bug. See the 22.10.22 release for notes about the 22.10 release in general.
