![]() ![]() In the latest "fixme" for the ostensible Lightworks installation under FreeBSD here, it seem that Lightworks requires a libudev.so.1. So, there may be a limited opportunity for testing here, if outside of the free edition.įor purpose of testing the hardware support in Lightworks - afaict, it doesn't seem to be as steeply demanding as DaVinci Resolve - I've also installed the Lightworks for Windows distribution (the initial, free edition) on the present laptop (Intel i965 GPU) while on a third laptop - this, a dedicated FreeBSD machine - I've been trying to run Lightworks under Linux ABI emulation on FreeBSD 12.3, uname: FreeBSD 12.3-STABLE FreeBSD 12.3-STABLE stable/12-n1855-ce99de0241e RIPARIAN amd64 It may be possible to de-register any single installation under the "Pro" license, after contacting Lightworks support. Rather than being time-limited, the perpetual "Pro" license can be used for, at most, two installations. The LWKS documentation - although stating at points that the license lasts for only seven days - it states that this free license can be periodically renewed. In the first run with the application, it showed a Free license with a 90 day expiry. ![]() I've installed this edition on a Debian 10 installation on an older (amd64) Toshiba laptop, such that that laptop has an Nvidia GPU. It may require a periodic Internet connection, in order to renew the free license. The Lightworks free edition is said to offer a perpetual license. In some research about commercial NLE platforms, recently I discovered that LWKS is offering a substantial discount on the "Pro" license for their Linux-ready NLE platform, Lightworks ( offers - LWKS) presently in commemoration of World Movie Day, which was this Saturday, 12 Feb. Perhaps the Kdenlive user interface itself may be really quite similar to that in Lightworks ( LWKS) a commercially developed NLE available for Windows, Apple Macintosh, and Linux systems. This could be contrasted to the streaming-media focus of OBS ( multimedia/obs-studio). It seems that Kdenlive may be commonly characterized as a non-linear editor (NLE) platform for audio/video production. This may have provided an opportunity to gain at least some familiarity with user interface elements and some aspects of workflow, for production using Audacity and Kdenlive. For that project, I'd also used a couple of screen-recording tools on Windows 10. I'd used audacity ( audio/audacity) for the audio podcast project, later Kdenlive ( multimedia/kdenlive) and - on Linux - timidity ( audio/timidity, with sound fonts audio/fluid-soundfont) plus Inkscape for video title frames ( graphics/inkscape) in Kdenlive - those, for a video tutorial project. I hadn't installed FreeBSD to the present laptop, at that time. In developing the multimedia content for some course projects last year, I'd used mostly free/open source tools under their Windows 10 distributions. ![]() While studying under a Bachelors Degree program in communication at a US university, with a specialization in multimedia topics, I've had an opportunity to gain some initial experience with software tools for multimedia production. ![]()
