Just last week, I wasted most of my morning hacking my way through installing Black Magic’s Davinci Resolve editor. With every update to the Canary channel of Chrome OS, I spend quite a bit of time trying to install Linux apps that previously didn’t work on a Chromebook. ( Well, a low-budget studio maybe.)Īll of that being said, I may have just stumbled upon a solution that could be a capable alternative for users wanting to have a set of professional video editing tools on a Chromebook. Sure, there are great online products like WeVideo for lightweight projects and you can even find some pretty good video editing platforms in the Google Play Store but what we’re talking about is serious, high-octane editing that’s worthy of a Hollywood studio.

If there is one product, in particular, that Chrome OS will need to figure out, it’s video editing. Every day, there are fewer use-cases where a Windows or Mac device is a necessity and we truly believe that Chrome OS will eventually offer comparable alternatives to that narrowing space. We’re constantly looking around for new tricks to make our Chromebooks even more capable than they’ve already become over the past couple of years.
