Limecraft 2025.8 – User-Controlled Notifications, Live Set Feedback, and Advanced AAF Export

Ghent, Belgium, 16 December 2025 – Limecraft is deploying release 2025.8, the eighth and last major platform update of the year. As with previous releases, the focus is not on isolated features, but on strengthening the everyday experience of teams working across production, post-production and delivery. This release brings together three recurring themes we hear consistently from customers: personal control, real-time insight, and massive efficiency in the edit suite.

First, 2025.8 introduces a fully configurable Notification Centre that operates at user level, not account level. Every user can now decide what they want to be notified about, how they receive those notifications, and where they see them. This approach reflects a broader shift in Limecraft’s product philosophy: empowering individuals without compromising system integrity or governance.

Second, this release closes an important gap between production and post-production. With the integration of the Live Timecode Notes app by editingtools.io, feedback captured on set can now flow directly into Limecraft as structured metadata. What was previously scattered across notes, messages or spreadsheets is now instantly visible in context—dramatically reducing friction before footage reaches the edit suite.

Third, Limecraft 2025.8 significantly extends AAF export capabilities, particularly for complex, multi-camera and multi-team productions. Editors and assistants can generate cleaner, more predictable timelines in Avid Media Composer, with greater control over tracks, grouping, timecode logic and visual consistency.

Alongside these headline features, the release also includes a set of targeted enhancements—such as improved subtitle editor navigation shortcuts optimised for speed and usability in high-frequency workflows.

Taken together, 2025.8 is about putting users in the driver’s seat, shortening feedback loops, and making handovers more reliable—from set to edit.

User-Controlled Notification Centre

With 2025.8, Limecraft further enhances configurable notifications introduced as an early access feature in the 2025.7 release. These notifications are currently visible in app via the new Notification Centre, i.e. the bell icon in the right upper corner, or sent via email.

Notifications are explicitly designed as user preferences, not account-wide settings. This distinction is intentional. Different roles have different priorities, and as a producer, editor or operations manager, you not necessarily require the same style and frequency of interactions: in matters of taste, there can be no disputes.

Each user can now define whether notifications are delivered in-app, via email, or both, and can fine-tune this per notification type. Supported notifications include team and workspace changes, upload status updates, review comments, transcription and subtitling job completion, and resource threshold warnings.

In addition to these application-level notifications, Limecraft has aligned all system-level notifications with the same framework. Certain messages—such as critical subscription warnings or invitation emails—remain mandatory, but can optionally be surfaced in-app for additional users.

All notifications are consolidated in a new in-app Notification Centre, accessible via the bell icon in the application header. This creates a single, consistent place to stay informed, without interrupting work unnecessarily. The result is clarity without noise, and control without configuration overhead.

Live Timecode Notes Integration: From Set to Edit Without Friction

Limecraft 2025.8 integrates the Live Notes mobile app by editingtools.io, enabling live logging metadata captured on set to be imported directly into the Limecraft platform.

Live Notes allows teams to create time-coded comments using a configurable interface with predefined buttons and tags. These notes can be exported as Final Cut Pro XML or JSON files. Limecraft ingests those files and automatically attach the data to matching clips—either as review comments or as subclips in the media library.

The practical impact is immediate. Notes taken during filming are no longer static artefacts; they become actionable metadata that editors can see as soon as material arrives. This significantly reduces interpretation time, manual logging, and context loss—resulting in measurable time savings once editing starts.

Advanced AAF Export for Avid Media Composer Workflows

AAF export has been substantially enhanced in Limecraft 2025.8 to better support the export multi-camera, multi-device and multi-team projects to Avid.

Users can now map materials tagged with specific metadata—such as camera or device name—to individual sequence tracks. Multicam grouping can be configured per track or as multicam groups, depending on editorial needs. Timecode-based auto-sequencing has also been extended, making it easier to generate time-of-day sequences across parallel shoots.

In addition, clips can be assigned distinct colours per camera or device, improving visual clarity and consistency once sequences are opened in Avid Media Composer. The result is cleaner timelines, fewer manual corrections, and a smoother handover from asset management to editorial.

Productivity Improvements Across Subtitling and Navigation

Beyond the headline features, Limecraft 2025.8 includes a set of targeted usability improvements. Most notably, the subtitle editor now supports additional keyboard shortcuts—such as Page Up and Page Down—for faster navigation between subtitles.

These enhancements are designed for users working at scale, where small efficiency gains accumulate quickly across long editing and compliance sessions.
