VideoStudio :: Import From DVD Greyed Out
Sep 1, 2012
I've done this hundreds of times, but now the "Import from DVD/DVD-VR" is greyed out. It's funny that the DVD I'm trying to import was created by VS about 6 months ago. I did need to wipe the hard drive and reload the software about a month ago. In the "Capture" pull down the "Capture Video" and "DV Quick Scan" are not greyed out but the "Import from DVD/DVD-VR" is greyed out.
This is VideoStudio6 upgraded to VideoStudio 9, so the software is not new.

When importing files from a compact flash card (Windows 7, Lightroom 3 final) my "move" option is greyed out, and so I can only copy or add the files during the import. I want to move them so they are deleted from my CF card after the import

I tend to keep adding images to my memory card until it is nearly full. I then reformat the card for future use. I do this for a couple of reasons, firstly if any of my image or backup file fails, I've got the option of downloading the image from the card again. Secondly, I like to ensure that all the storage locations on the card are used equally, to even out "wear."
I download using a Sandisk 'Extreme' USB2 card reader. Opening the Lightroom Import dialog, I have the box marked "Don't import suspected duplicates" ticked. I'm downloading a card which has a lot of previously imported images, plus a number of new images. Previously, the suspected duplicate images have been greyed out and only the new images are highlighted and only the new images download.
Just recently, despite the "Don't import suspected duplicates" box still being ticked, none of the already downloaded images is greyed out and ALL the images will download. I haven't made any other changes to the program or preferences, so I'm a bit puzzled as to exactly what is going on. I now have clear the check box for ALL the images and then just select the new images for import.
I am using LR 4.4 with Windows Home Premium 64-bit.

Just upgraded from X4 to X5, and it seems something is wrong. When I click the Auto Music icon, all options are greyed out.
Okay, it's been over six months since I last used VSX4, but I don't remember having to do anything special to use Auto Music.
Computer is: Dell XPS 8300
Intel Core i7-2600 CPU @ 3.40GHz
DDR3 SDRAM 8 GB
Motherboard - Dell Inc. 0Y2MRG
Graphics - AMD Radeon HD 6450
OS - Windows 8 Pro
I have uninstalled/reinstalled several times, and have installed VSX5 SP1.

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?

Trying to burn DVD after completing project. All menus missing, next button greyed out and will not work. Downloaded a patch to make this work when I first purchased software however computer crashed and disk image I restored did not have this patch included.
Have downloaded and installed both service packs for this software. Did not make any difference.

I am in the process of burning a DVD and first intend to create a DVD Folder. I would like to add a "personal folder" but the option is greyed out.
I can choose to “burn the disc” or “create a disc image” both options allow for adding a personal folder.
As a test I chose to create both a “folder” and a “disc image” this activated the link to allow me to add a folder, obviously this took a little longer and doubled the file sizes.
The Personal folder saved to ISO but not to DVD Folder.
I must admit I normally use the Disc Image option so haven’t noticed this problem in the past.

I've had this problem for a few weeks now. Customer Service has been unable to provide a fix (ie complete uninstall, re-installing from scratch, new drivers, etc). I have a fairly new I7 with lots of memory and disk space and an ATI HD4670 video card that is capable of hardware encoding acceleration....I run Vista 64 bit. I also have another software package on the computer that uses this feature okay.
Corel advertises hardware encoding as a big featuire of this release of Videostudio (X3 Pro).

I downloaded the trial for Video Studio X5 and have managed to make a few videos already with it (mostly desktop screen recordings in 1080p). However, after realizing how slow my renderings were, I toyed around with the settings and noticed that the Enable Hardware Encoder option is greyed out. Meaning that I cannot enable it. I can, however, enable other Hardware acceleration features.
I'm not totally sure what the issue might be since I'm pretty sure my GPU supports this feature ... or does it? Or could it be a limitation of the trial version ... ?
Currently, I'm running:
+ Windows 7 64-bit
+ EVGA Nvidia GTX 670 2GB
+ Intel i7-3770 Ivy Bridge
+ 16 GB DDR3 1600
Other hardware information can be found in my profile.
Also, system information as sourced from the Nvidia control panel:

I have VideoStudio Pro X5 Ultimate (full paid for version) but I am unable to select the 'Enable Hardware Encoder Acceleration' option under Preferences/Performance as the option is greyed out.
I have an nVidia GTX660 Ti 3GB made by EVGA. This has a CUDA based CPU and according to Corel's advertising, VS Pro X5 is designed for this chipset, and so I cannot understand why the option to enable it is not available.
Some comments from Corel support I found that this option isn't required for CUDA cards as they are enabled and used by default. However, I have just done a test render of a 1920x1080 AVI clip to MP4 using H.264 and monitored both my CPU (dual Xeon E5420) and GPU utilisation. The CPUs hit 90% whilst the GPUs sat there doing nothing at all other than basic screen rendering rather than any encoding. Corel's comments are incorrect.
Also, I have a support case open with Corel but TBH, I don't hold out much hope as their last response was "If the hardware acceleration options are greyed out, then your graphics card software is managing the hardware acceleration. Please check with Nvidia whether there is an option to disable this. If there is, then once it is disabled, the hardware accelerations option will become active again.". Now, I don't pretend to be an expert in these matters, but I was under the impression that the hardware was enabled and managed by the drivers, and those drivers also offered out the functions of the card to other software that required it (API?), such as VS Pro when it needs access to the hardware acceleration to encode video. Graphics rendering on games works fine without me having to disable any graphics card software so why doesn't VS Pro?
For info, my hardware / OS is as follows:
Dual Xeon E5420 CPUs at 2.5Ghz (8 cores in total)
16GB RAM
EVGA nVidia GTX 660 Ti 3GB (with 310.61 beta drivers but still same issue with 306.97 release drivers)
240 GB Kingston SSD
Windows 7 64bit Ultimate with SP1
How to get hardware acceleration enabled using a GTX 600 series card? Or any other card that initially had the option greyed out?
I know that some people say that CPU rendering gives better quality, but I have a few hundred hours of old VHS and Video 8 tapes to transfer to digital and burn to DVD so as the quality isn't great to start with, I'm not too concerned about a few artifacts if I can significantly reduce the rendering time.
If I can't resolve this issue then I am going to claim a refund under Corel's 30 day money back guarantee as the product doesn't perform as advertised. However, I'd prefer to get it working as I quite like it.

My video properties are 16:9, but VSX4 isn't letting me change them. And there's no splash screen to start with.
How do I change it? I just spent weeks going through all of my photos and putting the 4:3 on backgrounds to make them all 16:9. My video is already at 16:9.

I'm in the process of evaluating several video editing programs. So far I've used AVS Video Editor, Cyberlink Power Director and Adobe Premiere.With each program I've spent 30 minutes making a quick demo video to see how intuitive it is and how well it performs. Today I downloaded Corel Visual Studio and decided to give it a go.
I've run into a problem straight away.I've tried to import raw avi files.So I'm using the "Select Import Source Folders" screen.When I navigate to the folder containing the files the OK button is greyed out and won't work.It's greyed out all of the time.

I have copied a recorded TV programme from a PVR hard disc onto a DVD and then copied the DVD onto the hard disk of my computer. When I try to use my trial version of VS XV to import the "digital media", it first shows what I might call empty thumbnails. Then I get a message saying "The file formats of some selected files are not supported". Clicking on OK then produces a message saying "There is no valid clip". I should add that hovering over the empty thumbnails describes the format as DVD+VR. Just incidentally, I have been able to import the clips into PowerDirector.

I was not able to import a DVD that I burnt before (VIDEO_TS) into VS X4 to re-edit it. I tried "Capture" ---> "Import from Digital Media" and the screen with the "Source Folder" selection appeared. Clicking the folder (either that of a DVD drive or hard drive" and "Start" resulted in a screen with blank windows for the different Chapters. So, nothing could be imported.
I then tried to Import the same DVD into my old VS X2 and had no problems whatsoever (I had done this many times with VS X2 without a single problem).The edited DVD was then saved as a VS X2 .vsp file. Obviously, VS X4 could not open this VS X2 .vsp file (it said "file mismatch").I checked the manual and could not find why I could not import the DVD into VS X4.In short the questions that I have:
1. What needs to be done to be able to import a DVD (non-copyrighted - self burnt DVD) into VS X4 ?
2. Is there a way to make VS X2 .VSP files be read or opened by VS X4?
3. Would this be feasable: create the VS X2 .VSP to a .MPG video file first. Than include this .MPG file with the other .MPG from VS X4 during the "create disk" stage?

I've searched these forums for any "how to's" and found some info, but either it was over my head as to the fix or it delt with different video file formats or error messages.
The short version:
I have a fresh install of X4 on a 64 bit Windows 7 (Pro) and I'm trying to import *.MTS video files into the timeline but keep getting "File format Mismatch 1081:1:3" errors. I've copied the files from the SD card to the harddrive. I've also tried renaming the file(s) extensions from MTS to M2TS, AVI, MPG, and still get the error.
The long winded version:
I had X4 on a 32 bit PC for a long time. Installed Panasonics AE reader software that came with the HDC-SDT750 camcorder. X4 could recognize the MTS files and import them into the timeline. The PC motherboard failed so I got new motherboard and decided to do a fresh install of the 64 bit version of Win 7 Pro on a clean harddrive. Did a fresh install of X4. Then installed all Windows and X4 updates and patches.
When I try to insert a MTS video clip (file) into the timeline from either the SD card or harddrive I get the error message "File format Mismatch 1081:1:3". I can play the video files through windows media player (No matter what I've changed the file extesion to) and the video and sound play fine. I can also insert any other video file into a timeline except MTS files (New or older ones). With X4 up and running and searching for which video file to insert I can see the MTS video preview thumbnail in the file explorer window.
The video clips are 1920X1080 at 29 fms and a bit rate of 16794kbps
I can't find the Panasonic software disk and the best that I can tell Panasonic does not have their software online for download.
I will need some hand holding here so I'll need more step by step instructions than "Get the latest codecs" (Whatever that means)
System info:
Editor: X4 (With update)
DirectX: 11
CPU: Intel i7, 2600K
RAM: 8 gig
HD: 1 Tb
OS: Win 7 Pro
Camera: Panasonic HDC-SDT750

I am unable to import a DVD into VSX5.
DVD Properties only show as 195 MB udf file system / It is not copyright protected .It plays OK in Power DVD and Windows Media Player and lasts about 5 minutes .It is a free promotional DVD.
To try and import it into VSX5 I go import file -insert media to library -insert digital media -select drive, -start- when I select or get near the small boxes in the top right of title I or chapter1 boxes with the cursor - the screen goes black and the PC reboots loosing any unsaved data..
If I try to do a screen capture of a paused DVD screen either via print screen-paste as new image, or the dedicated screen capture feature in Paint Shop Pro X- the captured screen area only shows black....

I have been trying to add an MP4 video to edit in VSP. Every time I select the file, it would tell me that "The file had no video data" when it does.
I tried to install the Service Patch which is said to include imports of MP4 files, but it won't install. It tells me " The installed version of the application could not be determined"

I'm using the currently the VS X4 trial version for evaluation purpose. So first I want to modify a BluRay-Disc in 3 Steps:
- import material from disc
- cut some scenes
- re-create disc (or finally burn it)
Unfortunateley I'm unable to finish task one: I didn't found out, how to import the BluRay-Disc: I tried with 'import Digital-Media' but whatever I choose in selection dialog (drive where the disc is located, a dubdirectory from the disc, etc.), VS always respond 'No valid content found'.
How can I accomplish to import the movie materials from the BluRayDisc?

I have been using VS11+ for a few years, and have never run across this problem until now. I am trying to import DVDs recorded on a specific machine and am getting video but no audio. There is audio on the DVDs. I have tried importing both as mpg and as avi (in project properties) but neither works. Although I've been using VS, I am self-taught and not very knowledgeable about codecs, recoding, etc. I mainly use VS for importing video from DVDs, editing, rendering and burning onto DVDs. I am not certain of the make/model of the DVD recorder, but I do know it is new. (I did a keyword search for "import DVD no audio" before posting, but it returned over 2,000 results).

I am using VideoStudio 3x. I've imported a DVD that contains subtitles -
-when I view the resulting Mpeg file within the program, the subtitles are displayed
-when I view the mpeg through another viewer (ie Windows media player) - the subtitles are NOT visible
-If I burn the mpeg to a DVD - again - the subtitles are neither visible nor available
how do I either - extract the subtitles into an srt file - or make them visible in the other viewers?
- odd thing - when I view the original DVD I can turn the subtitles on or off - but when I try to extract them directly from the source - I get an empty file (go figure)

I forgot I have v11.5 and am getting some good results creating my own SmartScene menus. Can I import DVD-video to use in a new DVD and make minor in/out changes without it reencoding? Otherwise, I'll have to dig out my backup of avi files and start anew since the original source is Hi8 and can't be re-encoded.

If I buy vs pro x5, will I be able to export my present library from pro x4 and import it into pro x5's default library? Will buying the boxed or downloadable version of x5 make any difference in achieving this end? Which is to say, if I download the new x5 version will I lose my present library or will I be able to move it from the old to the new?
