OpenShot creator Jonathan Thomas released OpenShot 3.4 today as a major update to this open-source, cross-platform, and free video editing software for GNU/Linux, macOS, and Windows systems.

As part of my various year-end comparison benchmarking, I recently ran some tests looking at how the Radeon RX 9000 series RDNA 4 performance has evolved since its debut near the beginning of the year. The Vulkan ray-tracing performance in particular was standing out this year as having evolved quite nicely while for conventional OpenGL and Vulkan performance the performance has been largely stable this year with its great at-launch support.
