When developers and companies realize there is a market, they will create more software for our platform of choice.

Why? Because the more people purchase, the more companies will realize there is, in fact, a market. The free version no longer times out, but it doesn’t offer all the bells and whistles of the Pro version (check the feature comparison here).Īt this point, you may be asking yourself “Why should I buy software? This is Linux, right?” Although that is true, I highly recommend all users who can afford to purchase software on the Linux platform…do. This is used to inform the software if you are using the free version or the Pro version. When you fire up Lightworks, you will be required to log into your Lightworks account (Figure 2).

You might well receive an error report, during or after the installation, informing you there are either unmet dependencies or recommended software needed (this will depend upon your graphics hardware). Install Lightworks with the command sudo dpkg -i b (Where XXX is the release number and ZZZ is the system architecture) Here’s what you need to do (I will demonstrate on Ubuntu).ĭownload the appropriate binary file from the Lightworks Linux download pageĬhange into the Downloads folder with the command cd ~/Downloads Fortunately, the company has made it quite easy to install the software on Linux.

With the video drivers out of the way, you can now install Lightworks. If the tool locates drivers that can be applied (see Figure 1 above), select the appropriate driver, and click Apply Changes It’s quite easy:Īllow the tool to search for additional drivers

I’ll demonstrate how to install the proprietary drivers on Ubuntu. However, should your device have proprietary drivers available, I recommend you install them before installing Lightworks. Depending upon your graphics card, you will get varying mileage. Now, on a System76 Lemur, using Intel graphics (Skylake ULT GT2), Lightworks functioned out of the box. It has an NVIDIA Geforce GTX 650 video card and-even with the proprietary NVIDIA drivers-video (especially in the editing window) will not play properly regardless of the imported format. I’ve been trying to get Lightworks to function properly on my System76 Leopard Extreme (a truly brilliant machine) for a long time.

Lightworks simply won’t function with the likes of the Nouveau drivers.

This is one of the single most important things you must take care of. Now, what do you have to do before you glance at that first video? Let’s take a look. Once you have Lightworks working as expected, I highly recommend you take a look at these step-by-step videos (Lightworks did an outstanding job getting users up to speed with their product) before you begin the process of editing. Instead, this how-to will attempt to get you up and running with the software. I should also state that this is not a step-by-step guide to editing your creation with Lightworks. That journey to masterpiece, however, can be a bit frustrating. With this editor, you can turn all that footage into your masterpiece.

Linux users will have to jump through a couple of major hoops to get it all working Lightworks has a short, but very steep, learning curve Lightworks has been promising to deliver on its open source claim for a long time (it has yet to do so) This particular tool is an Academy- and Emmy-award winning professional-grade non linear editor used to edit films like Pulp Fiction, Batman, and The King’s Speech.īefore you read on, there are a few things you should know:

Lightworks calls itself the professional editor for everyone. But, when you’re looking at editing the likes of a full-length film, you’ll have to turn to Lightworks (if you want to remain on Linux). Where do you turn? Yes, Linux has a nice collection of video editors for anyone who needs to put together a quick video for Youtube, work, family, etc. However…when you need to step up your game and do pro-level editing, OpenShot and Kdenlive might fall a bit short and Flowblade simply isn’t ready. I’ve used OpenShot for years-specifically for my video blog posts and very short (and simple) movies I’ve created. These tools are outstanding video editors that hang their hat on being open source and readily accessible for Linux users (although Flowblade has a ways to go before it’s ready for the average user). When you think about video editing and Linux, most likely your thoughts immediately gravitate to the likes of OpenShot, Kdenlive, or Flowblade.
