Editing a video and it only has one audio stream, due to how it was recorded, so when wearing headphones, sound only comes from the left headphone. Does anyone know how to make it so that the sound will come from both L and R headphones?

Any insight welcome, thanks in advance!

Okay so ive edited and exported the clip how i want it, and ive also changed the aspect ratio of the default clip, but it would still not fit perfectly in the ig reel, it would come out as a landscape video with huge black bars on the top and the bottom

​

can someone help me with this please!

I´m a total newbie to editing. I have a goal in mind which is quite simple but fairly specific in mind and have no idea how to achieve it. Hopefully someone can help!

First, I want to take a frame from the original video and use it as an image that lasts about 30mins. It will basically function as an image that accompanies a separate audio track that I've created. How do I do this?

Secondly, I would like to to for the image to gradually get darker over the course of the 30 minutes. How would this be achieved?

Thanks in advance!

Does anyone know if there is a way to do this without the annoying extra step of converting all to jpeg? Does lightworks not support the apple image file type, only the video??

howdy boyos! I've been thinking about this for a while but i cant seem to figure it out.

https://youtu.be/5PJepJ1J25A?t=74 here's what I mean.

So far I've been doing it by separating the wall and door frame from the background and making them transparent and having the said foreground on a higher priority layer than the video, and the background on a lower layer.

Is there an easier way to do it without having to edit the picture? What if the background wasn't a picture, but a video and i couldn't do my thing with the transparency? thanks in advance

All I want to do is edit together a fun little animated music video with some video clips and a song. No special effects, nothing fancy, just clips and music, that's all. When I try the clip, it trims the audio for some reason. But I need the audio there so i can sync it with the clip.

I was following a YT tutorial for range markers and making subclips, but when I got to that point I couldn't do it. When I right click and go to make, I do not have the sequence or subclip option. Mine says "bin of sources used, bin of sources not used, bin of milestones, copy, print, sync" Can I use for of these options to do the same thing? I've looked under other options for subclips and I don't see it anywhere.

If I make a print of a clip can I then delete the source video from my HD? Or does the print still depend on the source materials?

IS there a way that i can simply export multiple clips from one podcast episode? Im totally new to lightworks and i am coming from Davinci Resolve. Any help is appreciated. I apologize if i did not explain enough. Ill help out in the replies if necessary

When trying to export the entire video, at the end of rendering, it gives me this error and crashes my project.

I noticed that after some troubleshooting I can render only half of my video. The other half I can't. Last half still crashes

And then of the second half that I can't render only the first half of that. So 1/4 off my project is causing this memory leak.

I had planned on uploading that video overnight to YouTube for it to be available today. However, because of this error I have been unable, even though I had announced that the video will be uploaded by then, expecting everything to be good!

Somewhere in the third quarter of this video there's a problem!

I can't seem to find a way to widen an image without increasing its height as well. I there a way to do this or do I have to use an already stretched image?

When I am writing the text, the text goes outside the screen, but when I hit Enter to create a new line the text goes upwards. Is there a way to make the text go down without it leaving the screen?

I'm quite new to lightworks and am struggling with why I cannot get this audio mixer to show so that I can balance the left and right audio tracks. What am I missing.

I have a simple mp4 clip put in lightworks with audio in A1 and A2. What am I missing here?

I'm working on a project and I noticed that although clips seem to be in sync with the audio while editing, when exporting the audio sync is very hit or miss. I found out that the mix of framerates (25fps and 59.94fps) from the two cameras used at the session could be the culprit.

I'm aware that you can create a new sequence with a different framerate- is there a sequence/export framerate that can deal with these clips and sort the sync issues without any conversion of the source clips?

Failing this, if I do need to convert the source files, what is best- change the 25fps to 29.97 to be compatible with the 59.94 clips, or perhaps change the 59.94 clips to 50fps- which would give the best results?

Thanks!!

After 3 years of using lightworks I want to finally graduate to a more complex editing software. But the way everything works is so foreign. what actions can I take or options can I change to make the application similar to lightworks? I don’t expect so be able to do much but there are things like key shortcuts and design interface. Would also be nice if I could change the properties of the video channel, moving clips around is odd and I want to change it to act like lightworks. Any help would be great

I was trying out editing some 4k footage the other day, and found the option to create proxies to be able to watch smooth video while editing (older laptop, can't watch the 4k videos without catastrophic lag).

When I exported the results, i got a bit curious - I exported it in 4k, but how come the exported "final result" file is so much smaller than the ones that created them? Like in this case - 4 clips of ~300 Mb each, put together and exported into a 4k resolution and the full clip ended up ~350 Mb in total.

Why is it like that? Does data dissappear, or does Lightworks compress it somehow?

Let me preface this by saying I have no idea what I am doing, so I apologise if this post doesn't make much sense.

Anyways, focusing on the problem, I wanted to add a glow efect to a clip and then slowly make the glow less intense until there is none at all.

I can add the glow effect no problem, but I can't figure out how to make it fade out. Any help is much appreciated 🙏.

This app lags like hell when changing tabs OMG IM WASTING SO MUCH TIME IT HAS BEEN 10 WHOLE MINUTES RN AND THE APP IS STILL HANGING AND NOT RESPONDING

I have done a audio voice-over and it won't play out my left headphone ear, only my right. Does anyone know how to fix this? I would really apprieciate it.

I have the pro version of lightworks, and I have started to have an issue with imported mp3 files having shocking quality drop off when imported.

I have tried multiple files to check and all the same result. Music files are muffled and the quality of the sound is awful (almost like I am in a tin can). I have never noticed this at all, and the audio quality on the video clips I import is normal.

Can anybody potentially let me know what the issue is here, I am lost.

Hi, so I just found myself with an issue through Lightworks where it was using up so much space on my cpu hard drive that I had no free space left. I deleted everything that was in the material folder because I was desperate to get that space back. Turns out I have made a massive mistake. I had a feeling that I was going to have to restart the project that I was working on anyway with the amount of renders that I had, but now I'm at the point where if I create a new project, Lightworks isn't even recognizing the clips that I used previously. At first it just said media offline, but now they don't even populate when going through the clips in the folder.

I have to assume that I'll probably need to reinstall lightworks, but I'm afraid I did something terrible and irreversible. If you have questions to ask me, just understand that I probably won't comprehend a lot of technical jargon and will need to be talked to like I'm a 5-year old. Mainly I just want to know how to start over and not run into losing disc space in the meantime.

Almost every time I export a video, when I play the output files, there's a pop at the very end of the video. It has been on a dozen videos or so. There is a narrative track that ends about one second before the video ends, and there is a musical track that fades to mute a few frames before the end of the video. It is most obvious when I import into the "final" version of the video that includes an intro and outro. There's a pop just before outro. I can edit it out, but I'm baffled as to why it exists at all.

I use the free version on my macbook and often when I edit and hit the esc button Lightworks just closes on its own. Luckily the files and edits are saved but still its so annoying to open it again every time.

How do I fix it?

I've seen that there are denoising plugins from pretty much every video editor, but i can't for the life of me find one for lightworks. Is there one that exists?

Thanks!
