DevPurple - Ultimate Shotcut Pack

ULTIMATE SHOTCUT PACK

Complete HD and 4K video editing suite for Windows, macOS and Linux, supplied on USB Drive or DVD

Turn your computer into a full video editing studio with the Ultimate Shotcut Pack. The complete Shotcut application is supplied for Windows, macOS and Linux, on one piece of media: the full installers, so you can set Shotcut up normally, and portable builds that run from the drive itself with nothing installed on the machine. No product key, no activation, no subscription, and no device limit.

Shotcut is the open source video editor from Meltytech, developed by Dan Dennedy, one of the founders of the MLT multimedia framework that powers it. It edits video natively without a conversion step, works with hundreds of formats through FFmpeg, handles 4K and multi-format projects, and is released under the GNU General Public License version 3.

What You Can Do With It

  • Edit almost any format without converting first: Shotcut reads video and audio natively through FFmpeg, so there is no import or transcode step before you can start cutting.
  • Mix formats inside one project: Combine different resolutions and frame rates on the same timeline, which matters when your footage comes from a phone, a camera, and a screen recording.
  • Cut with frame accuracy: Trim, cut, copy, paste, and step through video one frame at a time. Unlimited undo and redo, and the timeline does not cap how many tracks you use.
  • Correct and grade colour: Eyedropper tool, colour grading filters, compositing, blending modes, and a full set of video filters and transitions.
  • Work with audio properly: Loudness meters, peak meters, waveform displays, and spectrum analysers, plus a wide range of audio filters and full multi-track mixing.
  • Record and capture: Capture from a screen, a webcam, or an audio device, and work with network streams. Support extends to Blackmagic Design SDI and HDMI devices for input and preview monitoring.
  • Edit high dynamic range video: The 26.6 release added HDR preview and export, covering HLG HDR and PQ HDR (HDR10), with dynamic range set per project and HDR10 metadata on export.
  • Preview on a second screen: Use another monitor as a full-screen preview window, including for HDR footage.
  • Add subtitles: Import subtitles, edit them on a dedicated sub-track, and burn them into the exported video.
  • Track and stabilise: Motion tracking and a set of stabilisation and repair filters.
  • Use your own plugins: Shotcut supports external VST2 and LV2 audio plugins and OpenFX image effect plugins. Support for these is documented as limited, and none are bundled.
  • Arrange the workspace your way: Panels for properties, recent files, playlist, filters, history, export, and jobs queue all dock and undock. Drag files straight in from the file manager.
  • Export where you need: A wide range of export presets and full control over codec, resolution, frame rate, and quality when you want it.

Key Features

  • open source: Released under the GNU General Public License version 3. No account, no sign-in, and no expiry.
  • Codec independent: Shotcut carries its own codecs and does not rely on whatever your system happens to have installed.
  • Up to 4K: Resolution support through to 4K, and higher on capable hardware.
  • GPU aware: Hardware acceleration for decoding and encoding, and a graphics adapter setting for machines with more than one GPU.
  • Offline by design: Everything runs on your own computer. No activation step and no cloud account.
  • Date based versions: Shotcut numbers its releases by date and ships a new one roughly every two months.
  • 64 bit: Shotcut is a 64 bit application on Windows.

New In The Current Release

  • A new Elements panel: A stock asset library built into the application, covering emoji stickers, sounds, overlay transitions, animated text, and graphics. The content licenses allow commercial use and need no attribution.
  • Graphics adapter setting: Choose which GPU Shotcut uses on machines with more than one.
  • Shake video filter: A new generated filter for camera shake effects.
  • Restored plugin support: VST2 and LV2 audio plugin support is working again in all builds, alongside fixes for noise reduction and motion tracking.

Three Release Lines Included

  • The current release: The official Windows installer and the official portable archive, for Windows 10 and 11.
  • The previous release: The official Windows installer and portable archive, kept as a fallback.
  • The Windows 7 and 8 release: Shotcut's own download page names 22.12.21 as the last version to support Windows 7 and Windows 8, and it is included here with its installer and portable archive. Those machines are covered.
  • Shotcut Portable: The official PortableApps build, which runs from the media itself with nothing installed on the machine.
  • Windows on ARM: The official installer and portable archive for Windows 10 and 11 on ARM are included as well.

Mac And Linux Coverage

  • Macs on macOS 12 and newer: The current release ships as one universal disk image, and that single file carries both the Apple Silicon and the Intel build.
  • Macs on macOS 11 Big Sur: A second disk image covers Macs held at macOS 11, and it is the last release the Shotcut project publishes for that system.
  • Macs on macOS 10.14 and 10.15: A third disk image covers them, and it is the last release the Shotcut project publishes for those two. That image carries two builds: its Intel build declares macOS 10.14 and its Apple Silicon build declares macOS 11, so a Mac held at 10.14 or 10.15 uses the Intel build.
  • Linux: The current release ships as an AppImage, which is one file that needs nothing installed, and as a portable tar that is unpacked in place. The Shotcut project names Mint 21 and newer, Ubuntu and Pop!_OS 22.04 and newer, Debian 12 and newer, Fedora 36 and newer, Manjaro 21.3 and newer, MX Linux 23 and newer and elementary OS 7 and newer.
  • Source archive: The complete source for the current release is here as well, which is the route that works on any distribution.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this item delivered?

This is a physical item (USB drive or DVD) that will be shipped to you. Choose your format when you order.

Do I have to install anything?

You have the choice on the same media. Run an installer to set Shotcut up normally, or use one of the two portable options to run it directly from the drive with nothing installed. Full setup notes are included on the media.

Does this software need a product key or activation?

No. Shotcut is open source software released under the GNU General Public License, so there is no product key, no activation step, and no registration. Install and start editing right away.

Does it work on Windows 7 or Windows 8?

Yes. Shotcut's own download page names 22.12.21 as the last version to support Windows 7 and Windows 8, and that release is included here with both its installer and its portable archive. It is an older build, and the features described above are the ones in the current release.

What about Windows 10 and 11?

Both are supported by the current release. The minimum Windows 10 build is 1809. Windows on ARM has its own installer and portable archive in the pack.

Does it work on a Mac?

Yes. The current release ships as one universal disk image that carries both the Apple Silicon and the Intel build, and it asks for macOS 12 or newer. Two further disk images cover Macs held at macOS 11, and at macOS 10.14 and 10.15. All three are in the Shotcut Mac folder.

Does it work on Linux?

Yes. The current release ships as an AppImage, which is one file that needs nothing installed, and as a portable tar. Both are in the Shotcut Linux folder, and the complete source archive is in the Shotcut Source folder.

Do I need to convert my videos before editing?

No. Shotcut edits natively and does not require an import step, and it supports hundreds of formats and codecs through FFmpeg. You can also mix different resolutions and frame rates on the same timeline.

Can I edit 4K and HDR video?

Yes to both. Shotcut supports resolutions up to 4K and beyond on capable hardware, and the 26.6 release added HDR preview and export covering HLG HDR and PQ HDR (HDR10). HDR depends on having a suitably configured display and the right processing mode set.

Will it run on my computer?

Shotcut draws its interface and effects through your graphics card, so a working OpenGL 2.0 driver is required (Direct3D 11 on Windows). If the application does not start, check your graphics driver first. For HD editing, a modern multi-core processor and 8 GB of RAM is a sensible working floor.

Can I use my own plugins?

Shotcut supports external VST2 and LV2 audio plugins and OpenFX image effect plugins. The developers document this support as limited, and none are bundled with the pack, so install them separately if you want them.

Is Antivirus or internet access needed?

No internet access is needed to run or use Shotcut. Everything runs on your own computer with no account and no activation. Some links in the Help menu open the developer website if you choose to use them.

Do I need to copy the pack to my computer first?

The USB version runs the portable build directly from the drive. For DVD orders, copy the pack folder to your computer (e.g., your Desktop) first for best performance, then run the portable build or an installer from there.
