Description

This is a guide for setting up OpenShot on Arch Linux.

I occasionally do some video editing and I've found that OpenShot is a great tool for the job. This guide will setup OpenShot with the frei0r-plugins and blender for animations and effects.

Prepare the Environment

  • Make sure the system is up to date:
    pacman -Syu

Install OpenShot

  • Install openshot and frei0r-plugins:
    pacman -S openshot frei0r-plugins
  • Install blender:
    pacman -S blender
  • Open the OpenShot Preferences and set the melt and blender paths to /usr/bin/melt and /usr/bin/blender

NOTE: I needed to install lib32-glew in order to get blender working. In order to accomplish this, I needed to replace lib32-mesa with lib32-mesa-libgl:

pacman -Rdd lib32-mesa
pacman -S lib32-glew lib32-mesa-libgl
