I often use my desktop
computer for editing family videos even if I do this at a very
amateur level. Wile I mostly produce “animated
slide-show” videos, every now and then I adventure into the
“real” video editing field. Until now I used OpenShot:
I appreciate
mostly its clean and easy to use user interface. Unfortunately, with
my current desktop configuration, OpenShot appears to e quite
unstable crashing without any clue especially before video preview.
I so decided to explore
the panorama of available Linux video editing in order to find a
proper replacement to OpenShot
Lightworks
is one of the video editing software that received many positive
reviews among many blogs I visited so I decided to give it a try.
Lighworks
Lightworks is a closed
source software, both a free and a payment version are available, but
limitations on the free version don't prevent you from a amateur
level use. I so downloaded the “.deb” installation package and
installed it by just double-clicking on the installation file.
Registration
When you download
Lightworks you are asked to log-in or register to Lightworks site.
Registration, which is free, is not mandatory to download the file
but it is mandatory to activate and start the program.
