Is VSDC Video Editor really free and without watermarks?

Yes, absolutely. Unlike many other free video editors, the VSDC Free version is truly free for personal and educational use. Your exported videos will be 100% free of watermarks, brandings, or time limits. This is a key advantage over competitors who often place restrictive watermarks on their free tiers. For commercial use, a one-time purchase of VSDC Pro is required.

What formats are supported by the program?

Both versions are powerful, but VSDC Pro unlocks professional features essential for advanced projects:

• Hardware Acceleration (NVENC, Quick Sync): Drastically reduces rendering times for 4K/8K video, a must for efficient editing.
• Advanced Chroma Key: Multi-color removal and spill suppression for perfect green screen effects.
• Precise Motion Tracking & Stabilization: Smooth shaky footage and track objects effortlessly, rivaling features in DaVinci Resolve.
• 10-bit HDR Export & Advanced Color Correction: For projects requiring the highest color fidelity.
• Commercial License: Use the software for paid client work.
• Priority Technical Support: Get your questions answered quickly.

VSDC Free is perfect for learning, home videos, and basic to intermediate editing without watermarks.

Why do HDR videos from my iPhone look washed out?

Most software doesn’t support HDR, but with the VSDC video editor you can work with HDR videos and photos! If you want to make the colors more vibrant, you can also use the color correction tools.

I’m new to editing. Where should I start in the editor? Are there any tutorial videos?

You can find tutorial videos for our video editor on YouTube. We recommend starting with the beginner-friendly video: it walks you through the basics of editing in VSDC.

What video and audio formats does VSDC support?

VSDC supports a vast range of formats, often more than many free editors. This includes modern codecs for 4K, 8K, 360°, and VR video from cameras like GoPro, DJI, and smartphones. You can work with popular formats like MP4, AVI, MOV, MKV, and professional ones like ProRes. For a complete and always-updated list, see our dedicated page: Supported Formats and Codecs.

Can VSDC handle 4K and 8K editing on my computer?

Yes! A major strength of VSDC is its ability to edit high-resolution footage even on mid-range hardware. The software is optimized for efficiency. The Pro version's hardware acceleration (utilizing your NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel GPU) is a game-changer, making 4K/8K editing and rendering significantly faster than in many competing editors, including the free version of DaVinci Resolve which limits hardware acceleration to its paid studio version.

How does VSDC compare to DaVinci Resolve or Movavi Video Editor?

VSDC strikes a unique balance:

• vs. DaVinci Resolve (Free): While DaVinci is a professional suite, its free version lacks hardware encoding (leading to slower renders) and has a steeper learning curve. VSDC is easier to learn and offers hardware acceleration in its Pro version, making it faster for many users on a budget.
• vs. Movavi Video Editor: Both VSDC and Movavi offer free versions, but their approaches differ. Movavi's free version is typically more limited and often places watermarks on exports. In contrast, VSDC Free provides a more robust feature set without any watermarks. For professional needs, while both offer paid subscriptions, Movavi maintains a more restricted toolset with less customization. VSDC, however, delivers a wider array of tools that include not only ready-made solutions but also extensive customization options for specific tasks.

VSDC is the ideal choice for those seeking a non-linear editor (NLE) that is both powerful and resource-friendly.

Where can I learn how to use VSDC Video Editor?

We have a comprehensive library of resources to get you started:

• Official YouTube Tutorials: Step-by-step guides on everything from basics to advanced techniques. Visit our YouTube Channel.
• Detailed Blog Guides: In-depth articles on specific features and workflows on our website.
• User Manual: A complete written guide available within the program and online.

Is VSDC safe to download and use?

Absolutely. VSDC Video Editor is developed by FLASH-INTEGRO LLC, a reputable software company. Our installers are 100% clean, regularly scanned by major antivirus programs, and contain no malware, adware, or unwanted bundled software. You can download it safely from our official website.

What are the system requirements for VSDC?

VSDC is known for its low system requirements, making it accessible. It runs on Windows OS starting from Windows 7. For smooth 4K editing, we recommend a modern multi-core processor, 8-16GB of RAM, and a dedicated graphics card (for hardware acceleration in Pro). It is significantly less demanding than many high-end competitors.

How do I upgrade to VSDC Pro and what is your refund policy?

Upgrading is easy: click the "Upgrade to Pro" button in the program or visit the VSDC Pro page. You'll be redirected to our secure payment partner. We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee on Pro subscriptions. If you are not satisfied see refund policy, contact our support team at This email address is being protected from spambots.
