Difficulty in exporting my edited video

I am using the latest version of shotcut, but am unable to export my edited video, like I did with
the earlier/older versions…
I have followed these steps

  1. click on “export video”
  2. click on “youtube” as it is meant for youtube

However, it is taking an age to export the video…did only 61% in almost 2 hours

So the difficulty is only the amount of time it takes? The export time depends on so many factors that it is difficult to even guess what might cause it. The most obvious is that a longer video takes longer to export. But filters, transition and resolution all also play a large factor.

If you want to share screenshots of your video mode, timeline, filters, and export settings, we could make some suggestions to make the export faster.
