Re: Lightworks release date
 
The first build of the V2021,1 beta is now available for downloading. This is the first major version under the new owners.

https://www.lwks.com/index.php?optio...emid=81#226509

The video output format is now set per sequence instead of on the project card
Copies of a sequence can be made for different output frame rates if required

Asset Associations now allow for sequences, clips, subclips, documents, and to be linked together by loading an asset into the source viewer and selecting the “Associates” tab:

Added “Square” and “Portrait” sequence output formats for social media.

There are other additions and fixes.

With this version, Lightworks is now only available as 64 bit.
