VideoStudio :: Cannot Add More Than One File At A Time To Palette
Feb 10, 2013
I'm on Windows 7 (both home and Pro workstations). I cannot pick more than one file and insert to video palette. I can insert individually. This is for all file types (.mov, .wmv., etc). It inserts the files as "uvs100215-004.mpg" "uvs100215-002.mpg" but when I hit 'OK' it says 'unable to find file'. This used to work. I have tried to remove the quotations, insert period, semi colon to no avail.
I seem to have inadvertently done something that has increased the time it takes to burn a DVD or ISO Image file from less than an hour to over 7 hours. I'm working on my first project, and have burned several discs along the way, and most burn in well under an hour. Then ... I must have changed something without understanding what it meant, and the time to burn has increased by around 10 X. Hardware acceleration for everything is On, and disabling it slows the process down even more.
The project is a video slide show with 994 photos, a music track ripped within VS5 from a CD to wav files. The project ends up just over 5 GB to burn to DVD. I tell it to let DVD Fit adjust the size down and it does reduce it to 4.38 GB.
Another thing I noticed, is that after letting it run to completion, instead of it taking up most of the DVD, the DVD is only half full even though I'd expect it to be almost full with 4.38 GB and it has been up until this problem started. And if I make an ISO Image instead, it is less than 2 GB in size instead of close to 4.38 GB. I'm wondering if some how I told it to do a massive job of compression?
FYI - I'm using the trial version of VS5, so it may not have SP 1 installed, and it appears that SP 1 cannot be installed on a trial version.
So I have my properties pallete and layer pallete docked on the left side of screen. They dont stay open long enough so I was wondering if there is a time setting to stay open then automatically dock themselves back?
As a pixel artist, I could not find the following:
1) I have been searching for a way to edit my color pallette indexes in real time (preferrably through a RGB/HSV slider). Is this currently possible through any means?
2) Is there a way to cause a pixelated effect with the gradient tool (or any tool)? This can be used for quick background effects, speeding up a process for a piece.
3) Turn off the dimming from the navigator window when I zoom in.
4) (See attachment) Adjust the status bar to be more useful than just simple tips. I also don't need a scaling indicator if the navigator window forces me to have one. It would be nice to turn this off for the navigator window as well. Being able to maximize the space for that window would be ideal for more detailed previews.
I already use GIMP for stilled pixel art, and would like to maximize my speed and efficiency doing so.
I am updating capture time based on GPS Time (a bit OCD, I know) but when I change Capture Time the Date Time Digitized value does not change. This in in LR 4.3 and is not affected by whether on not the Catalog is set to 'Write date or time changes into proprietary raw files'.
I have bought an Easycap capture device and it is installed properly. However when I try to capture video from VHS I get the message "The sample start time is after the sample end time"
I loaded the frames (like in image) in my editor and I want to know how I compress the time? In my editor I have 12 minutes for all the frames and I want to compress at 8 seconds. The time is not active when I select all frames.
I installed a trial version of Pro X5 with Windows 7. Almost every time I try to capture video it crashes.
Camera is a Sony HDR-HC5E. The only format I am offered is MPEG. Sometimes it begins to capture, other times there is no picture on screen and nothing is captured, most times I get a NOT RESPONDING warning and Video Studio just freezes. Sometimes it works but very rarely!. I have reloaded X5 three times.
Downloaded the trial VS x6 Pro and am loving it. Been working on a project and wondering if there is a way to do time lapse of video footage. The variable speed is not fast enough for my liking and what to speed things up a little more.
I took some film of some wrestling matches. I want to share it with the coaches so they can use it for training. I would like to have a 'time counter' in the corner some where for easy reference so they can fast forward or reverse as desired. Is there a way to do that?
i have the Pro version (purchased) with SP 1 (VS X4) But i have one error all the time, it crashes at exit, all the time.
I cleaned up temp folders, run disk cleaner in windows, run CCleaner and other utils.I also deleted all registry entries to VS X4 i could find, reinstalled VS X4 with SP1, but same problem.

I'm playing around with time lapses in VS5 and am having some success. One thing I can't work out though is how I go about adding Pan &/or Zoom to a sequence. I can add it to individual images but i'm not sure how to add the effect over a series of say 300 images so that it's a smooth motion?
I wish to use the Speed TimeLapse effect (actually slow motion) I have a clip that last approx 8 min I would like to "slow motion" only a portion of the clip approx 20 sec. Is it possible to apply the effect without having to cut/trim the original clip. The clip properties are as follows;
ntsc/hdmv H.264 Video Upper Field First ;1920/1080 16:9 ;24bits;29.97 fps Audio 5.1 Dolby Digital
I have vs 11.5 and dvd movie factory7. When i am burning a mpeg2 file in dmf7 its burning the file faster. When i try to burn the same file in vs11.5 its take hours.
I am generating a video with lots of still images in it. I want the default transition time for the crossfade to be 0.5 seconds, but I can't find any way to specify anything other than integer values with a 1 second minimum. Is it possible to do this or do I have to modify each transition property?
Tonight I created my first DVD disk (ie authored a DVD) using X4 which I purchased last year.It seemed to take a much longer time to complete especially the creation of the title (menu?) than what I am used to using VS10.
Is this normal?
Is this a known 'problem' with X4?
What are others using to author a DVD?
Should I use VS10 to 'create disk'?
BTW I authored using the same characteristics as I used when I created my DVD file (create video file) so I don't think that it re-rendered.Also I am creating a 'standard definition' DVD not high def.
Is it normal for VSX4 to take a long time to save a project? I am finding that it is taking about 20 minutes for X4 to save my project each time, which has a running time of about 45 minutes. This is an excessive amount of time wasted in waiting for it to do its thing, as I can't proceed with anything else while it is saving.
I am preparing a slideshow using photos. Is there a way to change the duration time to all of the photos at once? Say to 6 sec. I can do them one by one but I have a number of photos. I am using Video Studio X3.
I'm working on a lengthy video highlights project with many clips less than 5 seconds and want to know the easiest way to bulk move at least 10+ clips at a time on the timeline to either an earlier or later point than they're currently at. In essence, I'm hoping that I can "bulk" cut and paste all these clips together instead of doing it one clip at a time by either dragging each individual clip or cutting and pasting.
I've read thru most of the historial threads regarding making time lapse videos using VS X4. I am very happy with the normal videos what I have been able to produce using VS X4, however I am missing something when it comes to time lapse using stills taken with a GoPro Hero2 taken every 2 seconds in time lapse mode. The still images look sharp and clear in my photo editing software, but lose focus and sharpness when imported into VS X4 using Insert photo into Timeline for Time lapse/strobe. a process to improve the quality of my time lapse video I am making for our Boy Scout Troop packing up their campsite on a beautiful spring morning.
I can add chapters to my video and then rename them to my liking. When I go to share and then automatic chapters, all of my names disappear and get renamed to the time marker. Is there anything I can do about this?
I'm currently creating slide show with about 1,000 photos. BTW, I need to apply automate pan and zoom feature on all 1,000 photos. Is there any method to apply this at one time instead of manually every single photo?
First I love the way the VS Pro X4 do time-lapse! the question that I have is that I have a web camera for my job which is a IQEYE camera which take JPG snap shots, but these snap shots are put in folders by days and time. an example is like one folder would be May and inside that folder would be the day & inside the folder would be the hour then minutes. how can i input these folders into VS Pro x4 and make a time-lapse? because when I use Adobe Premiere Pro Cs3 or Cs5 I can input the folders into the program and make a time-lapse video. can this be done in VS Pro X4? I just check one folder for May and inside that folder is 139 files
I have upgraded to Video Studio X3. I am making a simple collection of photos into a film. I have imported them all into the timeline but a warning message that they were too large to accept the default 10secs display time.
