Need some advise please about an editing programme called Lightworks and whether this programme will interfere with PD11. I have just downloaded the latest release 11.1 which includes a 28 day Pro feature trial ... lots of codecs etc additional to the 'free' basic version. It is unlikely that I will continue with the trial Pro version so my installed programme will downgrade itself to the basic version, deleting many of the codecs etc. I may choose to keep this on my pc but will the downgrade effect any of my PD11 codecs etc? I am assuming that codecs are 'common' across various programmes but maybe they are each specific to its own associated programme?

I don't want to mess up PD11 through ignorance

I guess (Dafydd) you will see this as a competitor and maybe 'chop my topic off' but I hope I can get an answer first CYa Ron (W10/i5gen8/Nvidia)
