The difference between the free and paid (pro) version is that the free version is limited to web formats such as MPEG4/H.264 at up to 720p while the pro version has a much wider range of output options, includes project sharing, 3D stereoscopic output, user-definable project locations, rendering and Hardware I/O support.

It's also worth mentioning that Lwks announced a while back that Lightworks will become open source. That was four years ago and I'm not entirely sure what's the current status of that, but hopefully Lightworks will go GPL at some point.

HandBrake, a free, open source video transcoder for Linux, Windows and Mac OS X, has been updated to version 0.10.0, getting support for new encoders, like H.265 and VP8, along other interesting changes.

• for input sources, HandBrake supports most common multimedia files and any DVD or BluRay sources that do not contain any kind of copy protection;
• supported outputs:
• file containers: MP4 (M4V) and MKV;
• video encoders: H.264 (x264), H.265 (x265) MPEG-4 and MPEG-2 (libav), VP8 (libvpx) and Theora (libtheora);
• audio encoders: AAC,, MP3, Flac, AC3 and Vorbis;
• device presets;
• title / chapter selection;
• chapter markers;
• queue up multiple encoding jobs;
• subtitles support (VobSub, Closed Captions CEA-608, SSA, SRT);
• constant quality or average bitrate video encoding;
• video filters: deinterlacing, decomb, denoise, detelecine, deblock, grayscale, cropping and scaling;
• live video preview;
• comes with graphical and command line interfaces.

• Libavformat is now used for muxing instead of mp4v2 and libmkv;
• added FDK AAC encoder for Windows and Linux as a optional compile-time option;
• added support for H.265 through x265 1.4 (this encoder is still early in it's development, so is missing many H.265 features and optimizations);
• added VP8 encoder (using libvpx);
• added Lanczos scaler, which is currently HandBrake's default;
• added Bicubic (OpenCL) scaler - requires an AMD or Intel GPU supporting OpenCL 1.1 or later. On Linux, this is only available on the command line for now;
• denoise: hqdn3d filter now accepts individual settings for both chroma channels (Cr, Cb);
• denoise: new NlMeans filter which offers much higher quality denoising (though it is very slow);
• added Windows Phone 8 preset;
• updated libraries: x264 r2479-dd79a61, Libav v10.1 and libbluray 0.5.0;
• the audio and subtitle controls have been overhauled to support default behaviors which can be stored in presets. This simplifies the workflow for many batch encoding scenarios;
• Libfaac has been removed due to GPL compatibility issues, and replaced with the libav AAC encoder as the new default for Windows and Linux;
• removed mcdeint deinterlace and decomb modes. This relied on the snow encoder in libav which has been was removed by upstream;
• Linux only: automatic audio and subtitle track selection behaviors which can be stored per preset;
• Linux only: improvements to Auto-Naming feature;
• Linux only: Batch Add to queue by list selection;
• Linux only: requires GTK3.

• versioning now uses version vectors instead of plain integers which means Syncthing has proper conflict detection now (in case of a conflict, the file is renamed from file.ext to file.sync-conflict-YYYMMDD-HHMMSS.ext);
• the GUI has been changed from polling for updates to listening for periodic status updates from the server side, which should reduce the CPU usage;
• the garbage collection threshold has been changed from 25% to 100% (the Go default) which reduces CPU usage and increases sync speed for large files (but uses more RAM - to decrease RAM usage, but with a performance hit, you can run Syncthing like this: "GOGC=25 syncthing");
• The database commit process has changed slightly to better accommodate handling lots of small files and the result of this is a faster sync with lower CPU usage;
• scanning of many large files is now more efficient;
• user interface improvements, language can be selected from the Web UI, process uptime is now visible in the Web UI, etc.;

• added two new Turbo modes:
• Gradient mode, which is used to change the key press time depending on the position of an axis (useful for racing games);
• Pulse mode is used to change how many times a key press is invoked depending on the position of an axis (scrolling in a web browser using arrow keys).
• fixed profile resetting in a couple of places;
• added option to invoke Game Controller mapping window from command line. The final mapping string will be printed to stdout. This is useful for saving a SDL_GAMECONTROLLERCONFIG for your controller that can be used system wide. Any SDL 2 game can then be set up to use that mapping and it can be changed if needed;
• profiles now use a unique .amgp file extension. Older xml profiles will continue to be supported;
• fixed spring mouse mode so that it uses proper axis distance values;
• set changing has been fixed for analog sticks and virtual dpads;
• experimental uinput support has been added to the source code. Binary Linux packages will continue to utilize XTest for event generation for the time being. If you would like to test uinput integration then you will have to compile the program using -DWITH_UINPUT=ON and -DWITH_XTEST=OFF when running cmake. Playing Warsow 1.5.1 in Linux using antimicro requires using uinput integration. Also, keys can now be pressed in a tty.
