I just downloaded trial of this and it seems easy and good app. I have still images at the beginning and after that the video starts
[image 3s] [image 1s] [video][video][video][video][video]
I want to make the [image 1s] longer than 1s but cannot drag it's end or modify the second field any bigger. It wont accept.
Also cannot move the video after it because it always remove the gap. So how to make middle image stay longer ?
I have been using VS for quite some time, along with my Panasonic GS500. When capturing my video, VS would create a file for every start /stop of the video. I shoot high school football. This is extremely convenient for cataloging plays, because each play is its own file. I know that "Split by Scene" is available, but it does not create a file for each play.I recently purchased a Canon XH-A1s and wanted to move to HD. will the new Canon camera and VS Pro X4 provide for the same type of capture, when optioned for HD.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am using VS Pro X4 on a Windows XP Pro PC. When I 'capture' video from by vidcam (DV tapes) using 'split by scene' all the resulting clips all contain the first frame of the following clip.
I had this problem a year ago using my laptop on a VIsta Business platform and though that perhaps the 'problem' had something to do with Vista (well Vista isn't everyone's ideal platform) but now I am experiencing it on an XP PC so I am thinking that it is caused by VS Pro X4.
Is there a fix for this and/or a setting to stop this annoying problem. I am thinking that if No then I should reinstall VS 9, which I never had this problem with, just to allow me to capture video by scene correctly.
I try to make railings for a scene using the modifier but there is something that does not seem to be correct. The path works fine but the railing does not seem to be straightened. No additional modifiers work above the path so I can not use the FFD or whatever.

Such a problem - was created composition from PSD, I made animations in AE, and then in the PSD appeared new layers that are not picked up automatically like old layers.
it is possible to select a part of a video scene and apply brightness/contrast just to that part of the scene. I have a scene with a sign in the foreground which is in shade whereas the rest of the scene is well lit.
it is possible to select part of an image using the 'magic wand' feature of Paint Shop Pro and wondering if this can be done within VSX4.
I guess it could be done the hard way of splitting the clip into separate frames and then brighten the sign in each frame using Paintshop Pro and then 'reassemble' the frames back into a video clip but this would be very time consuming.
Ok, just got and installed the box version of VS X4. Uninstalled the TBYB ver and then installed the boxed full version. It retained all the custom instant projects I downloaded for the TBYB ver and all other downloads. I went through it all to see what content was added and saw a lot of new content.
But when I went to the Disc authoring program I saw only 6 basic and boring menu templates under AVCHD and Blu-ray and only 3 templates under BD-J while all the smart scene menus were found only under DVD?!?
Why are the smart scene menus missing from AVCHD and Blu-ray?
I also find it sad to see the 3D menus in the really bad DVD Factory Pro 2010 not available in X4 but interesting to find the templates in instant projects.... any way of making these DVD menus for AVCHD or Blu-ray?
I have used my Video Studio Pro X3 to creat a few videos. When I now try to creat a video the split by scene buttion is greyed out. I dont think I have done anything with the settings on my Camera a Sony HDR CX7EK. I record in standard definition and the file created has an extension .mpg with 720x576, 25 frames per second. The only difference this time around is that I took the memory card from the camera and transfered it to the computer with a reader instead of using the sony transfer and charging docking station. Strange is that I can also not split by second when using old projects where I could split scnenes some 6 months ago.
I also did read in a few other posts the button is greyed out if you record in analog cameras, which is understandable, but to my dissmay it seems like splitting by scene does not work on HD recorded files, is that true as i have used the HD function in the camera and created AVCHD files with file extension .MTS and plan to creat a few movies later on?
I have made six slideshows and saved them as mpg files. I have not made any chapters. I now want to do a DVD menu. What I would like to try is a first menu screen with two options "Play All" and "Scene Selection". Play-all will play all and then return to this first menu page. Scene-selection will go to a second menu page. Any scene selected will play and then return to this second screen which will have a link back to the first menu. I'm really at a loss to see how to do this using the menu creation in VS. Is it possible?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI am using VideoStudio Pro X3 on my Windows XP Pro machine (see profile for specifics) to capture and edit video from my Canon Elura 100 MiniDV Camcorder. The problem I am having is that VS Pro X3 is stopping the capture during scene changes. It stops both the software and the camera. This does NOT happen on every scene change, but happens at differing times throughout the tape. It requires me to restart the capture from that scene forward. This happens regardless of whether or not I have the 'Split by Scene' option enabled. It is frustrating to have to sit through the entire tape restarting the capture at various scene changes. Previous tapes I have used Windows Movie Maker to capture the video. I have tried WMM to capture these tapes and it does work successfully without stopping at scene transitions. A related question is on Data Rate. The data rate listed under the properties menu in VS Pro X3 is almost 2x for the clips captured with VS Pro X3 vs the same clip captured with WMM while all other attributes are the same (including file size)?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have recently captured video (6 tapes each tape to a separate folder on disk and 'folder' within VS) from my VidCam (DV tape) and selected 'split by scene'. I was using VS9 as at the time I was having problems using Pro X4.
Every clip/scene captured for the first tape I captured to disk includes the first frame from the following clip. This only seems to have affected the first tape I captured.I will have to cut the last frame from each clip if I rearrange the order of the clips on the timeline.
VS9 enables users to virtually split clips by scene before adding them to the work space. It does not split the actual file but just keeps pointers to the various scenes. VS9 keeps this data in a file named scenedb.dat. However if the clip is moved to a different location then the scene information is not re-linked and is essentially lost (as far as VS is concerned) although the data is still in the scenedb.dat.
Is there any way to go around this problem and recover the scene info after a clip is moved?
That is, besides not moving the clips to a different folder than the one it was in when the scene data was first generated and/or re-generating the scen information?
I tried simple editing of the file path in the .dat file but this does not seem to work. It would be nice to understand the encoding rule for the scenedb.dat file to 1) update it 2) use it to generate some index db outside of VS (e.g. html page).
Although I configured 'scene divided' the VS x3 captured only one file. On another computer the scenes were divided.

View 7 Replies View RelatedHow do I align models to an image on the scene? I have a scene with an image of a city in the background (which will also appear on the render) and I am trying to align some models to the buildings on the image. These buildings will be used as a target for attacks.
Steps I have tried so far:
1. I thought of doing everything in the 3ds max's front viewport with the image perfectly aligned to the viewport and then aligning the models to the buildings on the image. The problem here is that I have a space ship entering the scene after a few frames and I see that some sides of the space ship are not visible on the render cause the render is from the front viewport.
2. Secondly I thought of putting the image as a viewport background using ALT + B and then aligning the objects, but this step is very tedious as I move or pan around the scene then the whole alignment is lost.
3. Finally I tried creating a static camera with the image being the main focus covering the entire viewport and then aligning objects. In this way I don't have much play area to send in the fighters that comes down from the space ship to attack the city as the camera is very close to the image.

I have posted some screen shots:

I am using VSX5 Ultimate. I installed a program called drop box and another called Helium. After installing these programs, VSX5 will no longer load. The intro screen does not even come up. I click on my short cut and my mouse pointer spins for a few seconds, then nothing. I have checked my programs and I do not have browser protect, browser manager or babylon. I uninstalled the two programs I mentioned above and restarted my computer but nothing happens still. Should I try uninstalling VSX5 and reinstalling?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI want to make one shorter animation loop within a longer one. Example would be a rotor of a plane spinning when the plane flies by, or a parameter of a material looping within lets say 15 frames (e.g. UV offset changing in cycles) while the whole walk cycle is 60 frames long. If it is a simple property that has to be changed I could simply key in a multiplied value (in the previous example I could offset the UV by 4.0 so it would loop 4 times) but this wont be a solution for more complex stuff.

YouTube says it is 18 minutes long, Windows says it is 49 seconds long, Windows Media Players says it is 49 seconds long, Windows Live Movie Maker says it is 50 seconds long, and Corel VideoStudio says it is 49 seconds long. The video is too long for YouTube, but I cannot edit the length with VideoStudio or Windows Live Movie Maker because it does not acknowledge the true length of the video!

View 2 Replies View RelatedA curious thing I have just noticed is that I no longer have any DivX showing as an AVI option under Custom in either X5 or X6. Don't get me wrong: I know all about the DivX woes of other users here. But on this same computer, I have always been able to update to the latest version of DivX and use it with no problem. Today I updated DivX to the very latest version, and went to make sure it showed in VS, but it was not there in either X5 or X6. Nor can either program "see" DivX clips I have stored on the computer.
A few weeks ago, I was having trouble getting X6 to see the various proDad and Boris filters added in the Ultimate package. That was eventually resolved, but in the process I had to uninstall and reinstall both versions. Something else obviously happened then and I am pretty sure it removed the DivX capacity, since all I have now showing under the AVI Compression option, apart from uncompressed, is DV Types 1 and 2, and the MJPEG codec. I used to have a lot more, including, apart from DivX, Cinepak, Microsoft mpeg-4 V1 and V2, ffdshow, Intel IYUV and XVid.
FYI, I have tried renaming the 15.0 and 16.0 folders in Win 7 C:Documents and Settings[My Name]Application DataRoamingUlead SystemsCorel VideoStudio Pro I realise that is mainly to do with repopulating the filters, but thought I would give it a go.
I also re-loaded an older version of DivX which I know had previously worked in X5, though I had never checked it in X6 (8.2.2). That did not work either, including after a reboot.
Also FWIW, I uninstalled XVid, which had previously showed up in X5, and reinstalled it. But it still does not show in either X5 or X6, including after a reboot.
FWIW, I have also checked on another computer on which I have X5 (though not X6 yet) loaded, and that has all the AVI filters mentioned above as missing, plus a variety of others specific to that computer (related to a Matrox program I have loaded on it).
Previous versions of the Photo/Video Bundle included the Ultimate versions of Paintshop and Videoshop.
Looking at the web page and box photo for the X5 version of the bundle, it seems to now include only the non-Ultimate versions.
Confirm that the Photo/Video Bundle X5 has been lowered to the Penultimate versions?

View 1 Replies View RelatedEverything has worked perfectly until today. Yesterday evening, I received an update notice from Adobe for an update called Adobe CSXS INfrastructure CS6 and I agreed to let install. It installed.
That seems to be where the problem started. Now, when I send an image from LR to Photoshop, it does not open. The "Edit in" command isn't working. PS opens, but the image does not appear.
I just downloaded and reinstalled PS CS6. I then asked PS CS6 to update, which it did. When finished, there was an error saying that Adobe CSXS INfrastructure CS6 could not install. Error code: U44M1P7
The good news is that now it all works again! So, the problem lies in the Infrastructure update, which I will not allow to update again.

When I open an image in PS CS6 all is well. Once I move the document, it snaps itself to the top left. If I move it and try to place it somewhere else, it moves itself a little higher to the top left. The more I move it the more it snaps higher. If I move it over 5 times it covers the main menu bar (File Edit Layer View Filter) and so on. This renders the app useless as you can no no longer access the native menu to do anything to the image.
