New Release 15.06
Version 15.06 of Shotcut is now available for download. We are pleased to offer our first 64-bit version for Windows! As exciting as that may be, please keep in mind that it is new and therefore somewhat experimental.

- Changed audio Gain filter to use dB and log scale.
- Added a toggle button to Lock a track.
- Changed Insert and Ripple Delete to ripple across all unlocked tracks.
- Changed keyboard shortcuts to adjust track height to Ctrl+- and Ctrl+=.
- Added keyboard shortcuts to toggle track:
- Mute - Ctrl+M
- Hide - Ctrl+H
- Lock - Ctrl+C
Version 15.05 re-released
We noticed a couple of major new bugs in versions 15.04 and 15.05.02 (according to the download filename and Help > About). Therefore, we made some quick fixes, which you can download now (15.05.06):
- Fix frequent crashes with both Settings > GPU and Settings > Realtime turned off.
- Fix the Timeline Split command producing incorrect results. If you saved a project with the faulty Split command in the short-lived v15.05.02, then the problems were also saved to the project, and there is no automatic fix for it. You should remove the problematic shots and recreate them.
- On OS X, fix a crash when choosing Remove from the Timeline clip/blank context menu.
- On OS X, fix the new keyboard shortcuts for selection control (select under play-head, move selection, deselect).
