Video editor do you use to upload your songs as videos?

Anything that doesn't fit into other topics goes here!
I've been using LMMS for a while now, but when I upload, I cobble together a video for YouTube using Windows Movie Maker. I'm starting to notice how bad the quality gets once I put it through WMM, so I'm wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of better video editors. I'm just looking for something that I can add a picture as a background, and then lay the music over it. Any help is appreciated omegle xender

Not lmms related.
You can find many different video editors that can make videos and use soundtracks inserted as special resources. Lots here:

The easiest way to combine an audio file with a cover image is by using FFmpeg.

Code: Select all

ffmpeg -stream_loop 0 -i your_video.mp3 -i your_image.png  -c:a aac -b:a 256k -c:v libx264 -y output.mp4
Hi. I'm using Canva, which I found at https://www.movavi.com/learning-portal/free-video-editing-software.html.
I read an article about it and decided to give it a try, no difficulties so far.
Kapwing is relatively easy to use; the free version means you get a watermark on your video though. You can use all kinds of media, still images, GIF animations and video, or any combination of these.

For stuff like putting your song on YouTube with just a static image, I switched from Movie Maker a while back because of the same quality issues. I wanted something simple where I could pop in an image and audio without fuzz or a watermark. Now I just use an online MP4 video editor when I’m short on time or don’t feel like installing anything. It runs in my browser and exports clean videos with no watermark, and works fine on my laptop and even my phone if I’m in a rush.
