I could go back and strip the audio from my. MOV files were being played back as if they had audio, even though audio doesn't get played or shown on an overlay track. I can only assume that VideoProc was being held back because my. Once I did that, playback was no longer laggy at all. MOV files in ShotCut because they were on a proper video track. However I was able to detach the audio from my. I tried the same process in ShotCut and discovered it was laggy too. I'm not sure if VideoProc does anything in the background to optimize the preview window playback, but if I changed anything it became very laggy again. Playback improved over time, getting less laggy. MOV file overlays, VideoProc struggled to keep the video inline with the audio by a long way. Which is fine, that's what the overlay track is for, right? Except, with nothing else added to the timeline, just my clips and their. It also lets me apply any other effects to the background clip, independent of the foreground.īecause VideoProc only has one video track I placed my full scene clips on that track.

The first is the full scene with audio dialogue as it plays inside Cartoon Animator. When I exported my clips from Cartoon Animator I created two versions of each. I prefer being able to create as many video tracks as I need without having to distil all my clips into one track.

My animated short is less than two minutes in length and the clips exported from Cartoon Animator are only 1080p. Right away I was hit with a major problem, preview lag. This video editor looked so amazing I immediately decided to switch over and give it a try. I was all set to use my preferred, free video editor, ShotCut, to edit my animated short, Mia and the Tourist - Droid Seat that I've been working on, when I discovered VideoProc. Editing the Final Cut of Mia and the Tourist - Droid Seat Unfortunately it wasn't the case but that's not to say VideoProc isn't for you, or isn't as great as it looks.
