VideoStudio :: Image Overly Background
Feb 11, 2012
I have a picture that I am wanting to overlay on top of a video clip. The picture is on a white background. I want to make the background disappear, but have the image show at its normal quality. (basically I have a image of a halo that I want to put over someones head, but the white in the image is obviously taking space in the video clip.
I was able to do this in Cyber link Power Director but cant seem to find a way in video Studio.
I played around with "Mask and Chroma Key", but that just makes the entire image transparent, and I am only looking to make the background transparent.

I have a still photo of friends getting married. In a slideshow, I would like to show them standing giving their vows at the alter and have various backgrounds replacing the alter. Example: They are standing at the alter. The alter fades into a forestscape then to a seascape and then a sunset. I have prepared the couple photo in PSP buy erasing all but the couple. The erased area is transparent but when I open this photo in Video Studio the transparent area has become a solid white. Is there a fix?

Along the bottom of the screen we want to add one of the text components - which will have a rectangle background and text saying call now and a phone number - then we want to add an image of a phone but we can't get the phone image in front of the text background - it is hiding behind the bar.... it's a bit like you see on the shopping channels with a phone number at the bottom of the screen - but we also want the image of the phone - how can you change the order of how these tracks are laid on top of each other?

Rendering produces super contrasted image almost white on black (actually grey subject on standard background). Rendering stopped working this morning after running it on full res and size last night. Everything else, even high memory functions, seem to work fine.

2007 mac book pro/ mac autocad 2011 2012
I've seen this issue raised by others with no solution to the problem. Here's what I tried:
-lower render output resolution and size
-make new simpler drawing with no materials (same problem)
-open file in MAC 2011 (same problem)
-reinstall autocad MAC 2012
-copy paste drawing into new file
-verify that default lighting and sun are off
I haven't figured out how to restore 2011 or 2012 settings to default.

After a computer crash, Lightroom 3.6 is showing all my pictures, all cameras (7D, T1i, G12) with an oversaturated orange colours (to fix this I have to reduce red saturation by -15 and increase red hue by +68 ) . I do not see this in CS5 not in Canon's DPP. I could create a new rpofile to revert this issue, I am afraid this will cause issues when I upgrade to newer versions.What can I do to restore my old settings without messing my updates?

Last month, I was drafting a simple 2d floor plans for my school assignment but the cad file size became huge and started to crash. After consulting my lecturers, I did a few things to attempt to solve the overly huge file size.
1. Redrew the drawing from scratch
2. Purged both old & new drawings
3.Auditted both old & new drawings
4. Saved each floor plan as a separate drawing so as to reduce file size
However, the same problem occurred and the new drawings also became too huge & slow to work with.

I seem to be having problems when I lasso round a specific part of a photo taken with a white background and then try to add that part of the image to a plain #000000 black background.
I always seem to get a white outline around the image when I place it on the black background, even when its on ZERO feathered. I don't like using feathered as it adds a smudge round the outside of the image.

This Q must be very old. Why can´t someone invent a sigle button for this I have tried all the things by the book but still when I try to lay text image with white background over an image the white is still there althoug I made it transparent. tried to sa for web as png-8, png-24 and gif. nothing works. To use magic wand gives bad result when applied to text? So what can I do? I am trying to place text over image. I know I could write it over the image but I need the text as a transparent layer some place else.

I used to be able to do this but have forgotten how. I would like to remove the bg from a small image, ie make it's bg transparent, and place that small image on top of a large image, a banner. Not sure what I am doing wrong but when I place the small image on the large one the entire image is transparent, not just the bg.

Is there a way to make Pro X3 run in the background?
The reason I ask is I want to add a voice over to a video Im working on, and I wrote a script to read from, but when I bring it up, the recording stops.

As I am testing more functionalities (and finishing up a video, obviously), I am trying to add a background music. For now, I used one that came with VS. I am reducing the Clip volume to 3 (I think that is 3%) and it is still too loud. If I move it down to 2, it is inaudible. Is there another adjustment somewhere? I really cannot have a background music compete with the narration!

In Menu Templater, you can have a main menu with different chapter, you can edit the background image and music for the Main Menu!
Questions:
1. Can I edit the background image and the music for the chapter page?
2. Can I edit the name of the chapter? I try to edit from the movie, double click the mark and type in new names, but when output, the name is different!

I have VideoStudio X3 Pro and just want to convert all my DV tapes to DVD - no background music, no fancy themes, just conversion with a menu and 15 minute automatic chapter breaks (or scene breaks using the X3 scene detection).
The only way I can test the themes provided in X3 to see if they have background music is to burn a tape to DVD. That just isn't very efficient.
how I can do this, which theme to use, or a way to adjust the theme before it burns?

Although I have been using x12 for some time I have never created a chapter menu before.
Even though I select "select a background image for all menus" when I do a 'preview' then select the video to play the background image remains displayed briefly and then the chapter menu fades in with a light blue background (not the background image I selected for all menus).
Is it possible to set the background for the 'chapter menu' and if so how? Also how can I CHANGE the displayed "chapter 1", "chapter 2" etc to something more meaningful?

Using VS9 (I know I need to upgrade.) I'm making a video to be shown on a 16x9 screen and have selected the 16x9 format. I have many 4x3 videos and pictures. In my original "preferences" I selected Blue as the Background color, added about 100 video clips and still pictures that now have blue on both the right and left edges of the screen. Is there a simple way to change this to grey or do I need to start over?

I just ran into a problem, using Videostudio X5 Ultimate. When i try to import a .PNG-image with a transparent background, but then the background of the imported image turns black.
However, when i open the same image in an image-viewer, the background actually is transparent.

I have learned basic skills with VS x4, and made a couple of videos with animated stills, and voice overlay, but I want to do something more sophisicated now. I'd like to have either a still or video background, with objects (images or text) "orbitting" over it, that is floating across the screen in a smooth trajectory. Is that possible to do inside VS without a camcorder or other handheld? If so, can you give me a brief description of where to look in the menus, what to do, and I'll work on it from there. I assume it will involve some superimposed tracks. But how can I create objects moving along a smooth path?

I am trying to add a new object to the decoration folder. I noticed they are all .png files, so I created a new png item with a transparent background ( with Gimp) and saved it in the same folder where all the other original ones are. It does come up in the list and I can add it to my video, but it changes the background to white, even though the original one has definitely a transparent background.

The Issue: adjusting the volume of a DVD menu background music (and only that), How to.
Problem statement: Running X5 pro. Preparing a DVD disk with an introduction and 6 clips, with one main menu. Having chosen the smartscene menu template to use, the items on the menu are adjusted (sometimes the menu item needs a simple name rather than the clip file name, and specifically the name/spelling on the menu item should match whatever is in the clip it relates to), and finally the Edit tab selected to choose a different music track for the menu. The option button here allows a variety of tweaks to the music - the music selection, fade in/out, duration etc, but NOT the volume of the music when played as the menu background.
The previewed end result has significantly (twice the volume at least) louder music that the remaining clips. Disconcerting to a viewer. Now, I know there is a normalise audio button at the final burn stage to (supposedly) even out the sound variations, but I've found an issue with that (separate post on this forum recently. The short term fix is to manually even the sound levels of clips out before burning the DVD with that normalise audio button OFF). That approach does not cover the sound level of the background music for the menu, which by default is rather loud, and with no apparent means of turning the volume of it down without impacting the rest of the disk.
Also noted in preview, there is a speaker symbol permitting volume control, but by experimentation that appears to manage the volume of everything, rather than just the menu.
The question: Is there a way of adjusting the menu music sound level ONLY?

I use X5 Pro. I have some projects with lots of video clips. When I load a project, the project itself loads fairly quickly (as indicated with the green progress bar), but the Icons in the Project area then begin loading ONLY for the page being displayed. This applies for both the storyboard and timeline view. This is very frustrating, especially on the storyboard view, because every time I scroll a page I have to wait for the icons to load. With a lot of pages, it takes a very long time to get everything loaded.
Is there a way to either speed up the loading process or have it load in the background so that I can leave the computer and come back later to find the icons all loaded, rather than having to sit there and scroll through one page at a time waiting for each page to load until all pages are loaded?

I recently purchased VSP Ultimate and have been trying to use one of the FX additions, RotoPen. Clearly, there must be a way to add a transparent icon but I have tried every file format I know that support transparency without success.
what steps to take to be able to use my own icon with a transparent background? I saw on an earlier thread someone said use GIF Movie Gear, but that also did not work.

I am creating a "year in review" for a local fire company. I am trying to set up Video Studio Pro X5 so that when there is audio in the video clips the background music lowers in volume so that I don't drown out the audio in the video. How do I do this?

I have a project which is a party with background burble. I cut to a mute cutaway shot of the mountains outside the window, then back into the party. I want the background burble to run right through. How can I strip some sound off a combined video clip and lay it under the mute outdoor shot?Used to do this quite easily in 16mm.

I'm using VideoStudio proX5. Previous versions of the VS program have allowed me to opt out of using a preset image template for the menu pages and instead to choose a background image of my own to put behind page headings and video thumbnails or text titles. I can't see how to do this in VSproX5. Any background image I introduce is always partly covered by unwanted areas of template and the right-click menus won't let me delete or move them to the back. I just want a plain uniform background and to be able to choose the coolur.

I've been working on a project (original is HD footage) and got a successful render to SD DVD. In trying to render a copy for my ipod i get an added audio problem no matter what ipod setting VSP x3 offers me. It's a background distortion, similar to that of clip that goes in very slow motion and the audio is echoing with reverb. The background noise appears to be in continual " waves".
However, the clip does look excellent otherwise in picture, vocals, musically etc.
