| - | Lightworks has been around for three decades and has been used on a wide variety of films, and although it was announced that it would be open sourced a few years ago, the actual source code itself has so far not surfaced. If you are only interested in finding a company in which you can have confidence that it will not deprecate and abandon your project file formats for years to come, then Lightworks is as good as some closed source NLEs and quite a lot better than others. If you are looking far on open source solution, then this is not yet the solution for you, although it is still on the official Lightworks roadmap to formally release the codebase (no word yet on what license it will use). | + | Lightworks has been around for three decades and has been used on a wide variety of films, and although it was announced that it would be open sourced a few years ago, the actual source code itself has so far not surfaced.

| Most other NLE-for-Linux pale in comparison; it is probably the only NLE on Linux that will convince a doubtful prospective user that Linux can be a serious video editing solution (albeit in part by sheer intimidation of the application itself). | Most other NLE-for-Linux pale in comparison; it is probably the only NLE on Linux that will convince a doubtful prospective user that Linux can be a serious video editing solution (albeit in part by sheer intimidation of the application itself). | ||
| - | This is not a sales pitch for Lightworks, however, and you should use whatever suits your own workflow. In fact, Lightworks is not quite open source yet (there is an as-yet undelivered promise to release its code), so if you want to use only free and open source software, then opt for something else. | + | {{ lightworks.jpg?700 }} |

| Lightworks can be used for free, but there are also "pro" features (user defined project locations, sharing, timeline rendering, stereoscopic output, advanced export options) available for either a monthly subscription fee or for yearly or version-buyout plans.
