Hi, I’ve been trying to substitute the paid VSDC Video Editor with an open source one, tried OpenShot, Kdenlive and ShotCut.

Only ShotCut allowed me to add and properly edit a text, but it was intolerably painful to do (specifically I couldn’t change the line-spacing between lines and was forced to add a separate Text Simple for each line, just to be able to change the space between them)

Are there any other open source video editors that are able to add and edit text? Since ShotCut was the closest to my requirements, I could try to modify it’s source code to better it’s text editing capabilities somewhere in the future, but it would be nice to have something right now (I’m tasked to make an advertisement video right now)

Or am I stuck with annually payment for VSDC Free Video Editor?
