Fwiw, I've tried to use OpenShot and it sucked hard. Granted, this was on Windows and it was several years ago (3~4yrs), so it may have gotten better (or it might be way better on Linux), but I ended up switching to davinci resolve because OpenShot literally couldn't deal with anything above 720p without crashing. I couldn't complete any university assignments with it. Even just clipping the ends of a video was causing it to crash. Unless OpenShot has gotten significantly better on windows, that's a good example of a place where a pro-quality FOSS alternative doesn't really exist.
Kdenlive is a thing. Honestly though using DaVinci is fine, it's even Linux native.
Oh that's interesting. I wonder if its any better now for you if you're interested in trying. It could have been a codec + windows issue at play too.
There's a few other alternatives for that tool but I can't think of their names atm.
Kdenlive perhaps?
