    Yep, fully agree. I made the same experience with having produced close to 200 videos and spent a full year working with it. On Linux it even supports the amdgpu open source driver for accelerating video presentation and (!) rendering (encoding). There are some small glitches but it never crashed. Never ever! I really can recommend Lightworks.

    I would've liked to see how to handle basic UI operations like zooming in and out, cutting clips, bringing in clips, etc (basic editing).

    I use the free version of Lightworks, does everything I need it to. But looking to upgrade from free to a paid version of Lightworks soon.
    Thankful that they offer an outright buy it forever option, unlike some editors.

    Hi, what is the best free video editor in your opinion? I used camtasia and sony Vegas free trials in the past but unfortunately I can't spend any money on a video editor right now.

    • @EJTech.
      @EJTech.  3 роки тому +2

      I also used Sony Vegas. However, I recommend using DaVinci Resolve. It has the same advanced features like Sony Vegas. However, it does include more effects that you can find in each "panel". It is really intuitive and easy to use. But if you want to get more serious editing work done, there is going to be some learning involved. There is two versions, one is Resolve which free and the other one is the Studio which is not free. But I recommend giving DaVinci Resolve a try.

    The gap between the free version and pro it’s too great. 720p will be a barrier prevent a lot of people - - that’s the idea is it to get you to buy pro version…. Problem is pro version cost to $240 a year -that’s right; $480 by year two… Four years of Lightworks and you’ve spent $1000. Hello?! Subscriptions are a scam. 720p limit is meant to create frustration

    Compared to shot cut and vsdc is lightworks user friendly? I found it kinda complicated

    • @EJTech.
      @EJTech.  3 роки тому

      I would say that its right in the middle. Way easier than VSDC and just different from Shotcut. Both shotcut and lightworks are easy to use but just different.

    I found Lightworks Pro to be an excellent alternative to DaVinci Resolve. I liked DaVinci but I am not a fan of their node based colour grading.

      I believe so, just to double check you'll have to go to the vfx panel and look for green screen or chromakey to key out the green screen.

    Runs great on Windows. Does not run well on Linux (MINT). If you delete a clip from Lightworks, It is deleted from the computer. Too scary for me. I had the paid version. Ran much better on Windows than Premier(Windows 7, over two years ago).

    worst software ever. Literally crashed every single time try and use it.. trim a clip? crash, add audio? crash. Fade out? crash.
    System runs DaVinci Resolve without a hiccup, but Lightworks collapses with the tiniest file... genuinely thinking all these positive comments are paid bots.. lmao.

    Are we using the same software? Been using it for the last week or so, trying it out. Totally disagree with you. It's utter crap. Flaky, very limited & an utter pain in the rectum to use. BTW I've been editing for 20 years, so kinda know what I'm on about. There are loads of free alternatives way better than this. Avoid.
