Audio/Video Properties

When an Audio/Video clip is selected, the Properties Panel shows the audio and video properties.

The Speed setting allows the playback speed of the clip to be increased or decreased.

Open With and Reload

  • Open With shows a menu of other tools with which you can open this video or audio-only file.
  • Choose System Default to let the operating system decide which tool to use–the same as if you double-clicked the file in its file manager.
  • Choose Other to add an application that is on your computer.
  • Choose Remove to remove something you added with Other.
  • You can think of this as “Edit With” especially useful for images and audio files.
  • There is a file watcher upon opening with another tool as long as selection (Properties) does not change. If it does, you can use Reload. This does not yet reload–whether manual or automatic–every clip object based on this file.
  • This is not available in the Linux Flatpak.
  • This was added in Shotcut version 25.10
