How to Reverse a Clip in Lightworks?

To reverse a clip in Lightworks, you simply need to adjust its speed setting using a negative value.

Here are the steps to reverse your footage in Lightworks:

1.  **Locate the Clip:** Find the clip you want to reverse on your timeline.
2.  **Access Speed Options:** **Right-click** on the clip. This will open a context menu.
3.  **Select Speed:** From the menu that appears, select the **Speed** option.
4.  **Set Negative Speed:** A speed setting interface will appear. In the speed input field, enter **-100**.

As highlighted in the provided reference, **100%** represents the normal playback speed of the clip. By setting the speed to a **minus (-)** value like **-100%**, Lightworks will play the clip backward at its original speed.

Setting a negative speed is the straightforward method Lightworks uses to reverse playback for a selected clip segment.

| Action           | Setting    | Result         |
| :--------------- | :--------- | :------------- |
| Normal Playback  | 100        | Plays forward  |
| Reversed Playback | -100       | Plays backward |
