Although installers are much easier to use, if you must build from source, here are some tips:
OpenShot is programmed in Python (version 3+), and thus does not need to be compiled to run. However, be sure you have the following dependencies in order to run OpenShot successfully:
Python 3.0+ (http://www.python.org)
PyQt5 (http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/software/pyqt/download5)
libopenshot: OpenShot Library (https://github.com/OpenShot/libopenshot)
libopenshot-audio: OpenShot Audio Library (https://github.com/OpenShot/libopenshot-audio)
FFmpeg or Libav (http://www.ffmpeg.org/ or http://libav.org/)
GCC build tools (or MinGW on Windows)
To run OpenShot from the command line with an installed libopenshot,
use the following syntax:
(be sure the change the path to match the install or repo location
of openshot-qt)
cd [openshot-qt folder] python3 src/launch.py
To run with a version of libopenshot built from source but not installed,
set PYTHONPATH to the location of the compiled Python bindings. e.g.:
cd [libopenshot folder] cmake -B build -S . [options] cmake --build build cd [openshot-qt folder] PYTHONPATH=[libopenshot folder]/build/bindings/python python3 src/launch.py
