Questions and Answers

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.

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: Movavi's free version often includes watermarks and is more limited. VSDC Free offers a more robust feature set without any watermarks. VSDC Pro provides a more powerful, one-time purchase option compared to Movavi's subscription model.

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

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.

It is significantly less demanding than many high-end competitors.
