4K editing with shotcut

After a few tries in FHD resolution that shotcut managed flawlessly, decided to give a try to 4K, as my camera allows it (DJI Osmo action 4).

Even though it was slower during import/export phases, i was surprise to not notice any slowdown or glitch during editing, everything going pretty smoothly and was as easy as a standard 1080p movie.

Once again i want to renew my thanks to the team for bringing us such a powerfool tool.
