A few days ago, I was playing video games on my PC (Linux) with the gamepad, and I wondered, can you edit videos with a gamepad? So, I set out to investigate and managed to get Shotcut to be operated with a generic gamepad.
I did this as an experiment; I found it very interesting and fun to edit this way. Although it’s a different method, I will find it difficult to adapt to it, which is why I see it as more comfortable to use a mouse and keyboard. However, this experience helped me improve my skills for future experiments.
These were some of the packages or drivers I used to achieve this:
- Xboxdrv for Xbox controllers
- AntimicroX to map buttons
