    class=”article first_main_article” readability=”50″>

    Lightworks Anyone remember? This software professional nonlinear video editing it would be Open Source in 2010 and reach Linux in late 2011 … A picture is worth a thousand words, they say:

    500x281 Lightworks Lightworks Beta could come in late March

    According to Engadget

    count, just shown the first official video Lightworks , and by the looks of it, and the publication of the video itself, it appears that the beta program might be to fall, at least in Ubuntu and derivatives.

    is true. The beta of Windows Lightworks reached in December 2010, but it was not until August that we saw the first video of this software running on Ubuntu. “You are about to arrive,” we said. But no. In October we launched the alpha version available to a few, and that was the last we had information about it. Until now.

    This new video is different because it’s official , and in fact the first thing it says is that “ as the roadmap one major update will arrive in late March to all platforms “, including Windows, Mac OS X and … yes, Linux. Do we trust this time?

    Here you can see

    Lightworks in action on Ubuntu , a video that serves as a tutorial introduction to the application:

    We recall that

    Lightworks is a software with a lot of baggage behind , behind film editing level Raging Bull , The Aviator , The Departed , Pulp Fiction or Shutter Island . We also recall that is not going to be Open Source. At least not as originally promised. Anyway, look forward to good news soon.
