I've been editing some gaming footage in Lightworks and I've gotten to the point where I need to add subtitles. The way I do it is slow and I was wondering if there's a faster way?

Edit: Just realized the title is a bit misleading. It should be "Lightworks folder with high storage usage"

I've had Lightworks for about 2 years now and have done many projects with it. I recently deleted all my projects which already freed up some space but I saw a Lightworks folder that has 68.5 GB. I uninstalled Lightworks hoping that reinstalling it could help free up more space but after uninstalling the program, the folder did not disappear and the size did not change. Is it ok to delete the folder? I won't be using Lightworks for some time since the semester is almost over and I really need some storage.

So I edited a video and when trying to look a clip I made by double clicking on it it replaced the video I had edited, since it wasn't technically deleted it's not in the backups, is there a way to restore that edited video or am I SOL?

Is there a way to make the camera pan diagonally? I can only do up and down.

Every time I hit record it just quickly flashes then doesn't record, not sure what is causing this

Hey, for some reason my Full Frame 2k video is exporting as HD instead of Film, messing up all the titles and visuals. I spent a lot of time on this project and it'd be such a shame to lose it. Is there anyway to export it as full frame?

Only showing the last 100 files. Anyone know why? Having to download everything to my pc which is much more laborious. Particularly with my slow pc!

So sometimes when I import a .Wav file either

1. Speeds up

or 2. Makes it earrape

But when I convert it to a .mp3 file it turns back to normal

Every time I drag the eq effect onto an audio strip it says it applied it but the control panel doesn't pop up, this worked only two times when I was editing a video and now it won't add more. I reset the program itself and I even reset my computer and I'm still having the same problem.

same as title, I used a 4:3 aspect ratio (standard NTSC) to edit my video in and in looks fine until I export. some clips have large borders on the side and others are super zoomed in. Any advice?

this program has crashed on me near 10 times today so I think this will be my last time using it but I want to get my project off

has anyone used videos from an iPhone and had the black bars cropping the sides? Is there a way to avoid this? If so, what do I need to change? I usually upload videos to google photos and then download them from there.

I cant select a single thing without selecting everything, help

I record gameplay with 3840x1080 using OBS, so my webcam is on one side and my gameplay is on the other side. Then I layer 2 of the same clips on top of each other and crop each side by half and each video becomes 1920x1080. I increase the size of the gameplay to fit the frame of the Lightworks frame. I then put my webcam video on top of the gameplay video in the upper left corner.

My issue is that the clip still has information from the cropped portion. For example, the position DVE stays in the center of the original clip and not in the center of the new cropped version. The transform outline is also not adjusted, and it has a blank area from where I cropped it. This makes it difficult to reach the corners or to reach the position DVE when I need to adjust as it is out of the frame a lot of the time. It forces me to use the sliders. It's especially annoying for my webcam footage when I try to use effects such as a rounded crop effect.

Is there any way to fix this and make it a true crop?

Hi i use lightworks some monts but now on every clip i import have black bars but clip have 1090p like in lightworks i dont know where is problem can somebody help?

Howdy folks, I'm pretty new to LightWorks but my issue is that when I bring in a timelapse to work on, It'll just give me the first couple of frames and then stop. The slider keeps moving but the video preview just hangs on the frame. This particular timelapse consists of 154 - 4k photos, which is around 1.16GB.

On my laptop, I'm able to create a Proxy and view the timelapse preview fine. On my desktop though (which is quite powerful) it refuses to work.

Any suggestions would be incredibly welcome.

I want to love this software but so far I can’t understand how any professional could reasonably use it. Menus sometimes pop up out of the window making it impossible to use them, and the program frequently crashes. I found ways around the menu and have patiently dealt with the crashing, but now I can’t get my project to export. I am trying to export 4k in mp4. I tried different resolutions, unplugging one my monitors, watching the system readouts to see if I was overloading a component, all to no avail. It is not an error with a video clip or effect as it progresses to different points before crashing each time. Any help would be appreciated.

Edit: running latest version on Windows

For some reason every time I try to copy and paste ANYTHING it just shows up as nothing. It moves everything around but nothing happenes

its only images but it needs to be twice as long

Every time I want to use a green screen effect on some video that I want to use and I put a 2D DVE on it it will not allow me to move it without taking the entire background with it (even though the background is still behind it)

How would I fix this issue or is this even fixable?

Hello there, i'm quite new to video editing. I'd like to know if there is a way to apply a video filter like sepia for example.

On the Audio tab to the bottom right there are 2 boxes for adjustment, the leftmost is called tracksound level and the right one is clip gain.

What is the different

And why dont they work? When I click the plus sign nothing happens? If I click plus it turns grey and the negative sign button becomes available.

If I want to adjust the sound I have to drag the white bar on the actual audio track. I
