I captured video that is mono, and want to make it stereo? VS5 . I tried splitting the audio and trying to place it in another track which didn't work the closest I can get is to set it on 5.1 channel. But it doesn't quite sound correct in the right speaker.
My mic I'm using to record is a mono (single channel) and I find that no matter what I do in VSPX5, the audio to my video stays in mono. I've tried saving an audio file of the clip as mono or stereo. I've tried saving the video using different compressions as well. Still, the audio only comes out of one speaker.
I have seen a number people new to smoke get confused when trying to edit mono audio source to a stereo track only to find the audio doesn't doesn't appear.
How about a preference that automatically splits the mono audio so that it edits to the stereo track?
If it was on by default it would definitely be of less confusion to new users
Or perhaps a dialogue box explaining why the edit did not work due to the differing audio properties.
My video material holds two voices that were recorded on CH1 and CH2 in mono, resulting in a stereo clip that has one voice on the left channel and one voice on the right channel. So far I always duplicated the audio clips and use fill right and fill left. I just found out about channel mappings in CS2 and CS3, but for my actual project it is too late since it is cut already. It is my first project I'm doing in CS2 and after it is finished I will install CS3. So my first question is: When I use the channel mapping command, how are the resulting mono channels handled in the master? Will each mono channel fill the right AND the left channel of the stereo master track?
With delight I found out that the channel mixer in CS2 allows to use fill right and fill left effects, so I don't have to drag the effects on each clip separatley.
My second question is regarding the mixing of the two voices. Since we couldn't afford to have a professional sound engenieer at the shoot the channel of the voice that was not talking wasn't turned down, so the second voice will be heard on the other channel when the two people stood close together. Is there a more efficient way to mix the two voices instead of using rubber bands to bring down one voice when it is not talking? It's a hell lot of work.
I am trying to export my 3D project as 3D (MVC) but I can't get VS to preserve the 5.1 sound. Either I get a 3D movie file with stereo sound or a movie with surround sound but then it's only 2D.
How to do this properly? I also tried creating a new movie template but it doesn't offer any 3D/MVC export option.
I am using a JVC GY-HMZ1 stereo video camera with Videostudio 6X so my files don't need to be tagged 3D so my question is how can i add titles and effects and still retain 3D stereo in my final output?I am new to Videostudio 6X pro
Is there a way to adjust left or right stereo volume separately? I recorded a live performance with vocals to left and music to right so I can have more control of the mixing levels. So far the only thing I can figure out is to import the same video file into the music track and duplicate the audio so that it plays left, and the video track plays the right.
I am using VSX3 and have a question about whether it is possible to mix/edit the audio track for the MTS files added to the project when the audio is 2ch stereo?
Basically what I want to know is how to remove or lessen voices that are close to the camera's mic, when I am really interested in keeping the audio of the subject I am focused/zoomed in on?
Case in point, my wife was filming my son's pre-k moving up ceremony and we have some priceless video of him singing up on the stage. But a portion of the soundtrack is ruined by her yelling at my mother-in-law that she is holding the point-n-shoot camera upside down and the ensuing conversation. In this case, editing the clip or adding music and fading out the clip audio won't cut it.
I am using Corel Video Studio Pro x4 Ultimate with SP2 and I getting significantly lower audio volume in left channel for all stereo downmix streams. The problem is consistent regardless if I make an AVCHD video with background music, or create slide show form still images with music.
I want to eliminate any possible PC setup or installation issues and narrow down the problem to program itself. I have attached sample of stereo 1 KHz 0db test tone, which could be used for this test.
1. Open new project 2. Choose Settings --> Enable 5.1 Surround sound and Wide screen 16:9 3. Import to the library few pictures and 1KHz 0dB.wav 4. Place on the time line pictures (I used 5 sec duration for display and 1 sec cross-fade transition) 5. Add 1 KHz 0 dB.wav to the Music track 6. Select Share tab --> Create Video file --> Custom 7. Choose MPEG Transport Stream .m2ts 8. Select Options --> General 1920x1080 --> 29pfs --> upper field first 9 Select Compression --> Quality 100% --> Dolby Digital Audio --> 3/2 (L,C,R,SL, RL) --> 448 kbps --> OK 4. Name the file and save it. 5. Play rendered file on 2 speaker system (TV or PC)
Playing 5.1 surround sound movies on 2 speaker (i.e. stereo) system will likely force to play Stereo downmix stream only from 5.1 sound. You then should be able to observe that the left channel volume is reduced by -14 dB. (at least this is what I get) which causes significant stereo balance shift.The same test can be done with music files, but if you want to measure the volume drop, test tone is the best way to quantify it.
I am having problems with LR5.2RC rendering a substantial number of my .dng files in monochrome. There appears to be no logic to this, and files appear in colour in Finder. I am using an iMac with Mountain Lion.
I print to a Canon Colour Image Runner printer. The default colour setting is set to mono.
I've noticed when I open a colour image in Coreldraw, navigate to Print Setup, change the job settings to Colour, then print, it still comes out mono, or sometimes come out as a random combination of both mono and colour.
I've found this to be caused the setting called 'Output colour bitmaps as'. This appears to set itself to match the default printer settings on the host pc. Ie my printer is set to Mono by default, hence the above setting sets itself to Grayscale to match. If i choose to print my Coreldraw document in colour, the above mentioned setting remains set to Grayscale, hence the printed output is for bitmaps is grayscale, not colour as i selected.
Likewise if i change my printer defaults to colour, the 'Output colour bitmaps as' setting changes itself to RGB, and then there is no problem.
I assume this is a bug, as if one of my users chooses to print a document in colour, then it should come out in colour. It shouldn't be necessary to change *another* setting to achieve this.
way of adding colour to a black and white picture? I have the original in colour, but I want to change it to black and white and then put a bit of the original colour back into a couple of places...
I made a DVD video in the default (I live in Canada) NTSC format using VSP X4. However I would like to make the same Video DVD in PAL format, to send to relatives in Europe. In "Share" mode, when I click on "Settings and Options" then "Disk Template Manager" I can see templates for NTSC and choosing PAL I see templates for PAL. Next when I go to "Projects Settings" the setting is in NTSC and clicking "Change MPEG Settings" only the NTSC templates show up. When I choose "Custom Settings" I can not change to PAL as the drop down menu for choosing is inactive.
Merged two mono tracks into a stereo one, then highlighted the clip and tried to cut the clip using ctrl-V - all that happens is the track becomes unhighlighted.
If i use shift Ctrl-V, then the track does get cut but so does every other track!
I checked the keyboard shortcuts and i'm pressing the right keys, just not seeing anything happen...
I have made dvds from AVCHD camcorder and mov. files but can't make a movie from a dv. I imported a file from my dv camcorder and tried to make a dvd but get an "unsprecified error". I then created a video file and coverted to mpg. file and then tried to make a dvd but it didn't work either. Still get an "unspecified error".
Considering the use of sequences of still images (e.g. created through vector software as Corel Draw), whether “VideoStudio Pro X4” is able to make the following kind of animation?
Apple Keynote Animation [URL]
If yes, which are the name of techniques/resources to be employed?
Whenever I try and click on the "Render Settings" button, it gives me this error at the bottom right of my screen. It appears in red, so I am guessing it is a critical error or something along those lines.
But once I click the "Render Settings" button once more, the window pops up (with the addition of the error) but with absolutely no options or tabs to choose from or click on. With the exception of the render layer option and the render type (Maya Software and so on). This leads me to believe that this error (being: Error: ImportError: No module named stereo), is preventing Maya from functioning properly and preventing me from modifying all of the appropriate render options.
I used trial x2 and x3, but after upgrading to X4 and bought it, it became very slow when making videos. Takes over 2 hours to make a simple vid in mpg 480*320 Or other formats for that sake.. Could it be related to my other video plugins installed in windows? ffdshow ?
I made my first Bluray video onto a Disk....looks great (with audio ). But now, when I try do more editing , make another disk, or save to a file in my PC., I have no audio. If I save it as a dvd, the sound is fine. I've reinstalled the software, still the same. Have I turned the audio off somehow when I try to make the file in Bluray format ?
I am using Corel videostudio pro x4 I have lot of frames in my video. I need to make each frame to pause before the anther frame starts. When i adjust the speed of frames audio is affecting.
I am new to VideoStudio Pro X3. I have a video of one person being interviewed by another, and I want to make inaudible some of the words - usually it's just one or two words at a time, whilst the video continues. Rather than have these words covered with a "beep" my preference would be for "silence". At the moment my best guess would be to multitrim the video, and for the clip that contains only the offending word, split the audio, and then delete the audio for that clip.
I'm working in VSX4. I've created a couple of small movies which I want to compile onto a single dvd. The video files from both movies combined only amount to about 3.2 GB, yet when I try to "share" and make the dvd with both of my vsp files, it adds up to be a total of over 7 GB. Is it normal to have this much "inflation" on a project? I've not done anything special as far as graphics or fancy menus or even chapter markers. It's just a handful of clips with the "crossfade" transition applied. And that's it.
I have used X5 to build a slideshow, but this is the first time I tried using video. The source are mpg's created with the Sony Motion Picture Browser (taken with a DCR SR42 Handy Cam). I added title screens between my video segments. I then used the create disc link in section 3 to create a menu (linked to the titles I added previously). I then told it to make an ISO file. It reached ~ 85% of the title conversion (24% total) and the PC shut down. Not a crash, no errors, just shut down. I turn the PC back on and it boots up like normal, No unexpected shutdown screens, no safe mode, just normal boot up. I have downloaded and installed service packs 1 & 2. I was making a 16x9 video with standard ( not Dolby) audio.
This is a wedding video for a couple I know. I was able to burn a DVD from Sony software, but it is unedited video.
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 have a series of photos I want to make into a quick slide show. I simply want to have them show in chronological order with some music and nice transitions, maybe in a frame template. I know I can do this in V3 fairly easily and I have done a good bit of video editing with VideoStudio, but I am wondering if there is a wizard that would make something like this faster and get me most of the way there.
There was Movie Wizard in past versions that I never used because I never had anything this simple to do. Is there a recommendation for how to get 90% there in VS3?
When I import an audio file into Smoke it ends up being longer, and plays slower than it does outside of Smoke.
The file is a stereo mp3, 16 bit, 44kHz Its normal duration is 13:19 In Smoke it shows up as 13:30
I tried applying a Time Warp to speed it back up but I can't apply the speed change. It is reset back to 100% after trying to change it.
Even if I don't import the file, in the MediaHub, in preview mode it shows up with a duration of 13:30 and plays slowly. The project has a 24P frame rate in case that has any influence.
My video clip, brought over into Premiere CS6 from Final Cut Pro 5, has the usual left and right audio tracks, but in Premiere they are not linked into a stereo pair. Thus the volume level has to be adjusted separately in each track.
In Final Cut, I can quickly convert two independent audio tracks into a stero pair by selecting the tracks and then going to the menu Modify > Stereo Pair. I can't figure out how to do this in Premiere.
When two audio tracks are not linked, the volume level has to be adjusted separately in each track, which wastes time. But after two tracks are linked into a Stereo Pair in Final Cut, adjusting either track adjusts them both, together. That's what I want to do now in Premiere.
So, how do I make two separate audio tracks into a linked Stereo Pair in Premiere?
I am making a slide show with Video Studio and would like to create a menu on the dvd with 4 chapters for the main slide show and one special feature type slide show that would be part of the same project that can be selected to play seperate from the main slide, but on the same menu. Is this at all possible to do.
