Linux Lite Forums

I downloaded Shotcut using Lite Software.  First time user.  After editing my first video, I continued to look at tutorial videos on Shotcut.  Some features were being illustrated in older versions that weren't in the Lite Software version.  One in particular was Open Other->Text.  I thought maybe it had been moved to a different menu, but even the most recent Shotcut documentation mentioned adding text using Open Other->Text.  Ultimately I downloaded Shotcut's latest version using their AppImage and I could see all the features I saw in video tutorials.  I didn't want to go the AppImage route, but I couldn't get their *.txz file to export to the /opt folder using the CLI.  I'm used to *.tgz, but I couldn't get the right tar options to extract *txz.  In hindsight, i could have used the graphical File Roller to do it, but that slipped my mind.

I also installed AppImage Launcher so the program would show up in the Linux Lite Menu.

Just thought I'd mention this for the awareness of the developer(s).

Thanks for that. They don't do deb's anymore, so we may have to revisit Openshot in the next LTS. I'm reluctant to add PPA'S unless it's absolutely necessary. Cheers.

I can say the same thing about OBS Studio. I was trying to connect my mobile phone camera to OBS using VDO.ninja. To do so, the Source that I have to add needs to be a Browser Source. That option wasn't available until I upgraded.
