If there is one question I hear all the time, it's "what free video editing software can I use to edit my videos?" There are a handful of free video editor options out there for Mac and PC users, but one of them was recently retired by GoPro, and in its place, GoPro recommends PC users use VSDC. VSDC is a free video editing software and it's full-featured... meaning there is no trial period, no watermarks, and no usage limits on the free version.
In fact, VSDC came to me and asked if there was any way we could partner together to get the word out about their free video editor, knowing that video editing is a hot topic (especially among my audience of video and GoPro enthusiasts). So in this first installment in this three-part series, let's dive into getting started with editing your GoPro videos, mobile phone videos, or any kind of video, with VSDC.

Great tutorial video! Far more explanatory than most other videos I've found on the subject. I'm just barely needing to use video editing software for the first time and I hope your video series can help me at least slightly master the basics of VSDC so I can hopefully create minimally adequate video clips. Thank you for posting this information in such a clear and understandable video!
Thanks for the great tutorial! I downloaded VSDC 3 years ago but did not find it to be intuitive. Your video is making me take a second look! :)
Very good teacher. Clear & precise .. thanks for sharing the info. Good for me as a beginner.
Thanks so very much Meredith. You bailed me out. I can't say it better.
Previously I had been using Windows Live Movie Maker but when I had issues with my P.C I was forced to upgrade from windows 2007 to windows 2010 which no longer has Windows Live Movie Maker. I stumbled upon VSDC Free Video Editor online but it was a nightmare for me to navigate it until I had a breakthrough from watching this video. I will watch your other videos in this series.
Once again I say thank you so much.
Big thumbz-up.
Thank you very much. This is very useful for me as I am a first time user.
Someone who doesn't talk like trendy robotic kid, like many youtubers! She's real person! Thank you.
This is just what I was looking for ! You explain it so very well so even i can understand and follow it ! I was scared to use a video editor but not anymore ! Thank you !
This is exactly what I"ve been looking for in VSDC tutorials. Most are just background music where you try to follow the cursor to see where they clicked, and can only guess as to why. Your work here is SOO much more informative and a better use of my time.
Thanks JJ
I have been using GoPro Studio for the past 3 years, thanks to your tutorials on the software, but recently a friend (Christian from Yolotek) told me to check out your vids on VSDC, so here I am! Thanks !
I uninstalled gopro studio because I was having Problems. Little did I know they stopped supporting it. So for someone who was just getting the hang of it, is this program a comparable replacement ?
Meredith you are just amazing. I have just started video editing and your tutorial is extremely clear and very concise I have been blundering around and until I found your tutorials I was ready to walk away from doing any editing projects. Thank you very much.
This is great for a semi-newbie like me. I have been editing videos in Movie Maker for a while and I was frustrated because there were a lot of things that I couldn't do. Such as pics and video overlays. Now with VSDC I have more options. Thank you so much for all this information.
Great instructional series! I was actually editing a video while I was watching your tutorials and it was super easy! The captions in VSDC is a LOT better then the captioning in GoPro Studio. Overall, this software is robust, stable and has a ton of features built in. Make sure to watch all 3 videos in the series!
Thanks VidProMilf!
appreciate the hardwork put behind this. such a underrated youtuber
Nice job breaking down the basics here Vid Pro Mom! I kind of jumped into using VSDC so it was good to go back and see the little things I missed!
Thanks Damien 😊
You bet! I ended up watching all 3 parts! Nice job! And I'm editing my latest video as we speak! Lol.
I’m sure I’ll be watching your videos a few times as I learn 😊 Thanks for the easy to understand content!
I just downloaded VSDC and upgraded using your discount. All day I have been watching your tutorials and I think I am getting better at it. Some of my videos though are lagging even though I have removed the accelerated option. I had to slow them down considerably to remove that issue. I need to figure out a way how I can make them play correctly. Thanks for your videos. They helped a lot.
Thank you so much! :) I love the way that you explain things - you take your time and talk nice & gently - thank you :)
Thank you so much💞💞 this helped me a lot. You’re a life saver ☺️
Very cool, will be checking out this series. Thanks.
So much easier to follow than other tutorials I've watched!!! I watched a different one, took notes for an hour, and still didn't get it right. Watched your vid for 12 mins, and did what I had originally set out to do in mere minutes!!! Kudos, vidpromom!!!
Hey that’s great to hear!!! Glad my videos were helpful.
@@meredithmarsh I'm trying to start a youtube channel (besides the silly one I already have) about animal education...pick one animal a week and do a 7 to 10 minute vid covering all aspects of feeding, habitat, mating, etc. Any tips to help me get started would be most awesome!!!
I am a beginner and I've been using vsdc for recording. Thank you for guiding me in this tutorial and I am also going to watch the other two videos.
Finally found a detailed in depth beginner friendly tutorial! Thanks a lot
Thank you for this tutorial video. Very helpful and clear. Im making my first youtube video with intro's and outros. Finding decent tutorial videos online can sometime be chore but i genuinely appreciate the effort here. Thank you very much
Cool stuff, thanks! Very clear explanations. I've been looking for a Windows video editor and this looks perfect for my needs!
Great video. Love the way you keep it simple, but still make it very educational. Well done! :)
what codecs do I need to install to run the edited video
Just found your channel today. Enjoyed the 1st three VSDC tutorials. Looking forward to a tut on best settings, optimizing, sharpening, old VCR recordings, once you have the video transferred to the PC.
New subscriber.
Thanks so much for these tutorials, I have just come across them and as a total newby, your explanations are great!
Thank you for talking at a speed that i can follow, just subscribed.
you are soooooo right, it took me forever to find this.
Hello, your video is explained so well and clear. thank you!
Many thanks! Have been frustrated by Windows Movie Maker for dummies ... I have Windows 7. Which editor should I download ?
Thank you for the information. Do you know if the Paid version comes with the Dolby noise reduction codec for AVCHD video files? This is usually an issues with a lot of free versions of video editing suites. The video plays beautifully, but there is no sound whatsoever. Thanks again for your time and information. Appreciate it.
Thanks VPM, your tutorial is concise and informative. Good Job!
Great video! When I add three videos to timeline, to the left of each video it shows layer 2,6&7 while your shows video. Please explain what I might have done wrong. Thanks
Whenever i put my intro from panzoid it's really laggy like only shaping 3 or 2 fps could you help me out?
I needed this. Thank you!!
Thank you so much. Just found your channel and this software. New subbie.
Hayhh
Thank you a lot. I am a brand new subscriber. You made me got it. It really came in handy for me.
Superb video tutorial..been looking for this since
hey in these vids do you show recording with vsdc
?
Oh wow... how coherently and beautifully taught and explained. God BLESS you. :) Love from Canada!
Thank you very much for tutorial. This is definitely helpful
Thank you. I hope to learn more from your future videos.
i subscribed and you are awesome ! keep up the good work and teach us !!
Hi Meredith , thanks for the brilliant tutorials . Whenever i export my videos in mp4 format for youtube always the first 20 seconds goes blank and then the actual video starts , what am i doing wrong .
Hi, I had problems with exporting 4K video from this tool. I've used standard layer ordering from my past experience instead of using the wizard, and then I exported the video (first layer to last layer , from left to right, which you said is opposite than other tools). My exported video was longer than I expect, and the video is freezing at certain points. Could the layer ordering be the reason for this unsuccessful export? Do you know? Just saw your video here, and I'll try today again with wizard.
Hello! Is it possible to provide us with more details about your project to support@videosoftdev.com?
Hi I have a chromebook and gopro hero 5 what program you recommend to video editing
Hello I like your CZcams tutorials very insightful 🤗 I’d like to know what mirror screen program did you use at 3:13 using your cursor to show the audience how to use this program,hopefully you know what I’m talking about ,sorry i don’t know much bout technology ,or if anyone down below this comment knows
G'Day and Thanks for this Meredith!
My wife and I literally have hundreds of hours of GoPro footage that we've never known what to do with. Every editor I've looked at is either incredibly expensive and/or has a huge learning curve. Or is crap.
Plus I just bought my first drone, so I need to edit that stuff now as well.
I've downloaded it and am about to watch the second clip now.
Thanks heaps
@Meredith Marsh when you cut two or more videos to make one do you have to save original or will the original stay untouched? Thanks!
Thank you very much. Very clear and easy to follow! Could you also show how to put audio narration on the video clip?
One question, is there any function to remove fisheye on VSDC? Thx!
brilliant.. thanks i will be following these videos.
Hi Meredith! Thank you so much for uploading this video I am new to CZcams and I am so excited to begin editing my videos. I have a question, the first section where you upload your videos, the section that has transitions and where you can rearrange the videos, there is no sound. Since I use multiple clips I'm having difficulty rearranging the clips due to it not having any sound. Can you tell me how to turn on the sound in that section before I click "apply settings"? (Refer to the 6 minute mark on your video to see what I'm talking about). Thank you!
do it need upgrade to make it fast and slow motion or not?
Thanks, your video is very clear and to the point
When u add your photos do u put your sd card in the slot
Hi! Thanks loads for this "easy to understand" introduction. You are the BEST!
thank you! I'm new to gopro 5 and editing
Thanks! I used the link to the to the 50% off offer. Worked just fine. Paid with PayPal. After payment the activation code was displayed. Opened VSDC and clicked on activate, plugged in the code. Restarted VSDC and now I have the pro version. Thanks again!
helloI love your content wondering if I could get some help I watch your tutorial of vsdc and , I'm having crashing issue's any advice on what it could be
I've watched your VSDC videos and you helped me to pick this first time editing tool.
I have PDFs on my computer that I want to take pages and put them in my video for a few seconds. They never come out clear when I do that. What's the right procedure?
I'm trying to export my videos in the hardware accelerated settings but I'm unable to do so.
Whenever I hit the export button it says
an error occurred while trying to create the resulting file. The conversion was not completed! Check the path validity of the resulting file.
Please help me with this issue.
Thank you. Very helpfull. Im just starting so this is just what i need to get started. Thanks again. Keep up the great work. ;)
Hi Meredith, how do I create a plain-coloured screen on which I put text (the title of my project)? I don't want this over my video, just on a coloured screen where I can write the name of the project and have it stay there for a few secs while it's being read. Thanks - great tutorials!!!
Thank you so much from Canberra Australia. Good video as it is so easy to understand. Helping to distract me while we wait to see if we are evacuated from the dangerous fires pretty much on our doorstep.
So I have a question, I'm trying to edit a video on vsdc free version. Well my video that I'm trying to edit has a ton of stuttering and skipping and cant even preview the video to edit because how skippy it is. I then changed preview settings to 144p to see if that would change it. There no difference from previewing it in 144p or 720p it has the exact same amount of skipping like a buffering affect every fraction of a second. How can I fix this? Windows 10, i5 processor, 8gb ram.
does this allow one to mask a portion of sensitive tex across the video? ( example a text on top right showing your email?) any suggestions? i dont own camastasia
Using those video "layers" within the sprite, is that how you can do video-in-video stuff? I noticed you resizing one. i.e. I have a talking head in one corner while the action is taking place in a bigger portion of the screen.
the vsdc cheat sheet is not available in the link. please help
I'm trying to learn some video editing and this really helped. Thank you for this lesson. I subbed and liked.
This was really helpful, thanks!! ☺
Thank you for the video. My video doesn't play smoothly and stutters while playing, any suggestions?
thanks for sharing. really helpful for beginner like me.
Great vid.
How you do authoring dvd with this program?
Nice intro. Also nice to know that there are some tutorials available so that you aren't jumping into something completely unsupported. I'm off to download. See you soon! Thanks.
Can i edit 4k video and store it in my pc's hard disc as 4k video too (with the free edition of VSDC) ?
Okay, if it wasn't for you I would have known NOTHING about this video editing program. I was looking all over the place for GoPro Studio and you helped me out with that too (the fact that it is gone now) I am brand new to video editing and you are my new best friend. Thanks!!!
;) glad to help you out!
Love your tutorials. Thank you
There is no box on the site to enter e-mail address for the cheat sheet.
I downloaded this yesterday, do I have a different version, because the layers of videos are as in any other video the top layer is showing as on top not in reverse as this video indicates? I'm very confused!
I'm really struggling wirh vsdc . for example I select play on my file and when I press stop so I can select to split it, the cursor goes back to the start also when I do manage to split it by dragging the cursor to the split spot I couldn't seem to select the unwanted bit to delete it, the whole file deleted , I had to drag it to the left until it disappeared. When splitting in Camtasia Studio a file when split is really easy to see and select and is obvious, so I must be doing something wrong .All my goro footage is usually from one file and I just select clips from it and then edit it in the next screen so easy in GoPro studio, that's another thing there doesn't seem to be the tool for marking in and marking out the wanted clip. I want to get this working before I think of the pro version.
I had the pro version on my old PC. When I got a new computer I couldn't figure out how to transfer the program so I re-downloaded it. The program is different now and doesn't seem to be nearly as user friendly as the older version. Is there any way to get the old version back?
When you select the fps is there a way to select higher than 60? I am trying to shoot at 120 for slow motion footage
Using your tutorial to help me assemble a video (of multiple individual clips) for class. This is super helpful.
Hi got this vsdc I’m very new to editing can you tell me why the preview video is very slow and jumpy I have the pro version thanks in advance for any information
Great tutorials. I have some phone videos that play oh VDSC side ways. How do i edit them so they play vertically
I've just come across your videos while looking for a package to edit my gopro 7 black videos, as a complete beginner to gopro and editing i'm finding you very helpful so thanks for that !
Question tho - I have been trying to use VSDC and while watching playback preview, its really jumpy and hard to watch so im going to find editing quite hard while it is like this.. is there anything im doing wrong ?
I have uploaded my vids straight from gopro and also saved them to file and both ways they are still jumpy on preview. I have also tried converting using Handbrake first and then opening these files into VSDC but still really jumpy ?!
Computer specs are:
Windows 8.1
Processor: AMD A4-6210 A with AMD Radeon R3 Graphics 1.80 GHz
64bit operating system x64 based processor
Any help is appreciated :)
Also, seeing as im here... how can i upload in such good quality as your vids ? You can see an example of mine (all 2 of them) by looking on my channel and again, any feed back will be a massive help as its really starting to annoy me now :( Booo!!!!
im wanting to shoot in 2.7k..what custom settings would i need for my resolution etc?? Please thanks
Thank you, please help me understand how to make each video for an hour in VSDC? IF LOOPING HOW to make it last for an hour?
Do you know a way to reduce export file size? I love the editor but my files are always like 2-4 gb, then I have to try to run it through a program I found online to make it smaller. It helps a little but it doesn’t reduce the size that much.
Hi thanks for sharing. Could you please share how to trim a very long video and divide that long video into several videos. Thanks
Interesting, thanks for sharing.
I've been searching on how to put in a progress bar but what I've found didn't help....any chance that you could do this tutorial, please?
THANK YOU!! Great video! I will be watching the others too!
Glad to be helpful!!
I like your title beneath the video how do you make that in VDSC editor?
Does this program allow you to edit the sound? Such as getting rid of background noise?
Hi Meredith thanks for making these very informative tutorials. I have tried adding my clips to the software at the same time and they don't open in layers like yours did from the sprite. Can you please show again if there are multiple clips how they can be added to the software at the same time. I need to do them wash separately and that's awful lot of time .
how can i record video on vsdc with my inbuilt webcam with simultaneous creen recording? Is this feature available for free version?
Thank you so much, it useful to me as a beginner😊
