Why I can't load my 4K MP4 footage into Lightworks on Windows 10? These videos were taken by GoPro Hero 7 Black. I can play these files with Windows Media Player. When I import the recordings into Lightworks, I get the error message 'Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires Lightworks to shut down. We will attempt to save your current project.' How to solve this problem? I'm Lightworks Pro user. - Carl Lavigne
Lightworks supports a broad range of codecs, but they must adhere to professional television standards. If you read about the codecs it supports below, you will find the GoPro Hero 7 MP4 is the native supported format for Lightworks. However, as MP4 is a multimedia container which may contain various different video and audio codecs, if the codec are supported by Lightworks, you will have no problem to import MP4 into Lightworks. If not, you will need to perform a codec transcoding process.

Part2: How to impot any video to Lightworks for smoothly editing?
Everyone wants to have a simple and powerful editing software, but there is no standard software suitable for you. As we know, Adobe Premiere Pro and Apple Final Cut Pro are the most widely used professional video editing software. They are not cheap. If you don't have patience, you won't be able to finish your work. Is there a free ediitng software fo us?
Lightworks is an incredible tool that's published free with the noble aim of making professional quality video editing software available to everyone. Film editing solution that can be used for video content enhancement by both movie industry experts and social media marketers. Lightworks has an unusual history for free video editing software - it was born out of high-end, professional film editing software that was used to edit such Hollywood classics as Pulp Fiction.
If you've tried other free editors you'll probably find that the interface is a little different to anything you're used to, but you can arrange the various controls and windows to create something that suits your way of working.
There's a paid version, Lightworks Pro, which adds the ability to export in formats other than MPEG, publish 4K video directly to YouTube, and export 3D videos, but the free video editing software includes everything else you need to make impressive videos. While it supports all the import formats that the paid version does, it can be tricky getting everything to import easily for the uninitiated - you have to define project settings like resolution, framerate, and so on before you import your files. If you set anything different from your video, you’ll have to dive into settings and tweak them until you get it right.
