Re: Lightworks release date

I guess one new feature came along from IBC, so a V14.5 RC13 is available.

https://www.lwks.com/index.php?optio...5247&Itemid=81

This latest build adds preliminary support for the new Blackmagic RAW files, plus a couple of fixes. Lightworks are scheduling to release 14.5 within the next week or two.

Lightworks Version 14.5 released

After a long beta Lightworks V14.5 is now released.

https://www.lwks.com/index.php?optio...6289&Itemid=81

Apart from many bug fixes, headline features are:

Support of variable frame rate files (.mov .mp4, .m4v) - this appears to be pretty robust, unless the supposed target frame rate recorded is a non standard one e.g 20.333 fps. A wide range of phones and games capture videos are working with this, without needing conversion before import.

New GPU precision options

Histogram Graph to the Video Tools panel

Export option to Reaper (Lightworks Pro only)

Support for handling .MOD and .TOD files

Ability to adjust RED R3D RAW metadata parameters (.rmd)

Added support for media structures:

Support for Fusion 9 on Mac

Support for decode/encode of Cineform codecs

Voice Over and Mackie MIDI support for Linux users

Ability to acknowledge project wide LUT setting on export

Ability to set a Ranged Cue Marker (Start and End point)


Further details can be found here: https://www.lwks.com/index.php?optio...270&Itemid=270

With the launch pf V14,5 there is a Promo for a free Lightworks ShuttlePRO V2 with every Outright license purchase
