Q
How do I change the speed of the video?
A
This is implemented as of version 16.01. With a clip open in the source player or selected in the timeline, choose Properties and look for the Speed field.
Shotcut only provides simple frame dropping or duplicating. However, if the frame rate of your source footage is higher than the Video Mode (under Settings menu), then you can achieve a fairly smooth slow motion.
