Today we are looking at how to install Shotcut Video Editor on a Chromebook. Please follow the video/audio guide as a tutorial where we explain the process step by step and use the commands below.
We created a tutorial earlier, with a different installation method as well.
Please take note that with the release of Chrome OS 90, the location of Linux Apps has been changed in the Chromebook’s settings. Have a look at this tutorial, to see how to turn on Linux apps and then continue with the installation tutorial.
Update: with the release of Chrome OS 120, the Linux container on a Chromebook has been upgraded to a newer version. This tutorial still works exactly as in the video, however, the first 3 commands are no longer required. Hope it helps
