As any of you who have tried to edit videos probably know, there aren't really any high-quality open source video editors. This won't be released until late this year, but Lightworks is being released on a open source license.

this is a very good thing. I plan on doing things like this for a living. I still prefer using Imovie on my mac though.

iMovie is to Lightworks as MS Paint is to Photoshop.

:D

Capable, though.

Thanks for that find S! I've been looking for an alternative to windows for almost a year now and hope this is it.

I'm looking forward to this.


Almost as much as I am to CS5.

CS5 looks cool, but I keep getting the irksome feeling that the demo videos are too good to be true (I'm talking about the real videos, not the spoof).

Yeah, I get the same feeling.



I'll get some Lightworksness going on later.
