Hi, I installed OpenShot on my laptop. I need OpenShot for quickly home video editing. After installing it, I configured it by going to the Preferences and chose an HD 50p file. When I put HD clips on the timeline, the preview is not fluid but I'm enough happy. But when I add the pics, the pain comes. They are jpeg pics made with a compact camera, but I also tried other pics taken with a GH5. In a few words when the track cursor goes on the pic clips it almost freezes. It takes an eternity to pass 5 seconds only. I'm doing tests for some hours but I'm not able to solve that problem about the pics..
The laptop is brand new and costs over 1000 euros, so it's not a bad laptop. It's an i7 with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 video card. Can you tell me why I have this problem? Maybe do I have to configure someting? Can I solve this problem?
Thanks
 
I dont know your software at all.

It can happen that even a phone pic or DSLR pic is 4k, 6k or bigger.

Some software cant handle that size.

You could try downising your still images to 1920 pixels wide before importing them to your application.

Some NLEs are/were not so good with jpeg, you could try saving them as tif files before importing.
