VideoStudio :: Matching Project Settings To AVCHD Video Clip - X3?
May 28, 2011
I'm trying to match the project settings to an imported HD video clip (1920x1080 *.mts).I've been using videoStudio for years but only in 720x480 SD. I just got a Panasonic HDC-SDT750PP HD camera and want to make sure the video output file makes the most out of both camera and X3 but in project settings it only allows 720x480.
Does the project setting have any affect on the final video file?The properties of the video file says 1920x1080 24b H264 yet the source file extension is *.mts
My intention is to create a HD video file that I burn to a Hybrid DVD until I get a Blu-ray burner but what format to save the file in if the X3 project setting only goes to 720x480.

I'm editing MTS files/AVCHD. Footage filmed with a panasonic cam, using Pro 6, when I hit share tab - create video file - I have many choices but I would like to save it as high format as the original, so do I hit , (Same as First Video Clip) or (AVCHD) both are nearly the same I'm guessing, I've saved in both formats and both ended up been the same size. What one I should save to ? I have added the properties of the original file.

What are the best Project Properties settings to choose when starting a project with AVCHD source clips? I may be asking a dumb question here, but I have tried to search the database, and can't find a thread that gives me what I am looking for. My camera is a JVC Everio GZ-HM320B and the clips it records have the following properties:
File Format - NTSC HDMV
Video Type - H.264 Video, Upper Field First
Attributes - 24 bits, 1920 x 1080, 16:9
Frame rate - 29.970 framse/sec
Date rate - Variable bit rate (Max 22599 kbps)
Audio type - Dolby Digital Audio
Attributes - 48000 Hz
Bit rate - 256 kbps
These clip properties were taken out of VS X4 by right clicking a clip and selecting Properties in the menu that popped up. I am concerned that I might be loosing some of the original clip quality when creating a project. I have read elsewhere on this Board that when creating an AVCHD DVD, the best workflow is to choose Create Disk after completing a project, Rather than choosing Create Video File. When I choose Create Disk, the burn module starts by defaulting to LPCM audio, and a Video data rate of 16000 kbps. I know these are adjustable to Dolby sound and up to 18000 kbps Video rate, but I wonder if I choose a different Project Properties setting when I start the project, if I might save some video quality.

My camera films in AVCHD 1080, 25fps. I currently use VideoStudeo x6. i have been using it for a while and when i export for youtube videos, i find its only quality video when you change the youtube video to HD. Is there a way to set the video, so its still crisp and clear at 360p/480p, as i find its always distorted at these levels, although the footage is amazing in hd. What are the exact project properties i should set and the file export settings.
I am fully aware of the settings for youtube, however is it because iam filming in AVCHd i cant get that clean crisp look at lower levels on youtube? as the best setting for youtube are mpeg files. for reference please check this video i did: [URL]......

As the title says.. if I have a video, say for instance MPEG-4 1920x1080, rendered by Videostudio, and I multitrim it, then render it again using the 'Same Settings as First Clip' setting - is the video re-coded, or do I maintain original quality and the different parts are just effectively joined together?

I have a very unusual problem and I can't work it out. I have 1920x1080 clips in AVCHD format taken from my Full HD Digital movie Camera. It's a cheapy - Kogan! When I place all the clips together in Studio Pro 4 and render the video outpout or even preview in the clip window I get the frames splitting above and below the frame. The clips play fine in all players and as you can see in the second attachment is the Pro preview player compared to Media classic which renders the clip correctly.
You can see the top and bottom of the frame is duplicated on every transition or start of next clip

I used a video light in lower light conditions to take an HD video (in AVCHD) which will be rendered to PAL SD DVD. Unfortunately the main speaker has red eye. Can my VSP x3 remove this?

I am using VS2 and have been working on creating a "hybrid DVD" AVCHD video. I have a Canon HD video camera and an HP computer (w/regular DVD burner) with an i7 quad. Hybrid DVD is played on a Bluray player and HD TV. Everything is working well with editing the clips etc... Rendering has gone well with no real problems. I recorded video at the highest setting 24 Mbps. When I click on properties for a (m2ts) clip in the timeline it indicates 21,0000 to 22,000 Kbps that seems normal. I than go directly to the burn step (Create disc>AVCHD) and proceed to burn the disc at 4X. When I click on the middle icon (thumbwheel) these are the properties:
MPEG files
24 bits, 1920 x 1080, 29.97 fps
Upper Field First
(HDMV-NTSC), 16:9
H.264 Video
Video data rate: Variable (Max. 18000 kbps)
Audio data rate: 384 kbps
Dolby Digital Audio, 48 KHz, 2/0(L,R)
These settings seem normal to me. Also, the "do not convert compliant......" is checked.
This is what I am not understanding. When the 18 minute HD project is brought into the burn disc module, it shows only 1.45 GB of data and after the disc is burned, the video file properties found on the disc show a total bit rate of 11,768. As a test with the same project, I did a (create video file>same as first clip) and created a mpg file that is 2.75 GB in size with a total bit rate of 21,649 which seems normal. I understand VS has a max of 18K but shouldn't I be able to create a hybrid disc with a data rate close to 18K. The video at the lower bit rate plays and look ok using my BR player but I wanted to find out if I could create a higher quality video on disc.
I have read probably every post relating to what I think my problem is and after trying a couple of things, I cannot increase the total bit rate of the video on my hybrid disc.

If the Pro X3 Service Pack includes dealing with AVCHD Lite video files?
It says "...the update provides: Updated camera support – broadened MPEG-4 capabilities add support for additional cameras, including selected cameras from Flip, Canon and more "
Just bought a Panasonic Lumix DMC-Zs7 wich shoots AVCHS Lite HD video and a lesser quality .MOV files as well. I wanna know if Prox3 can deal with these before I upgrade!! I have Prox2 right now.

I'm about halfway through my 30 day trial of VS Pro X4, and starting to feel a little more comfortable with the software, but a few things are still puzzling me. Granted I've only scratched the surface of the SW capabilities so far.
I took the plunge and got a new Panasonic HDC-TM90K HD video recorder to replace my old 8mm analog Sony. I've only had the opportunity to use it several times, so far so good.
The Panasonic camera comes with HD Writer AE 3.0 software. Pretty rudimentary compared to VS Pro X4; does the basics, trimming, titles, transitions etc. Not bad, it works, but definitely not as sophisticated as VS Pro X4. However I need software that can capture the 8mm tapes I'm converting, which the Panasonic SW cannot, really don't want to learn/use two software packages so hence trying to focus on VS Pro X4. See thread viewtopic.php?f=1&t=41255 for my question re: mpeg compression.
Using the Panny HD Writer SW I was able to capture and burn AVCHD DVD's from the Panny camera SW without issue, not too difficult considering this is my firt time doing all this stuff. AVCHD DVD's play just fine on my Sony Blu-Ray.
I tried capturing the same video content from the Panny camera with VS Pro X4 and could not. VS Pro X4 is stating there is no camera attached. I believe the Panny SW is hijacking the USB connection first and hence is controlling the connection to the camera. I tried looking for some services that the Panny SW has running and closed the auto-run of the Panny SW, but still no luck. I haven't tried uninstalling the Panny SW, that's next.
I was however able to import the files from the Panny camcorder using the import function in VS Pro X4 by selecting the files I wanted. Imported files are the exact same size as the files imported in the Panny HD Writer AE 3.0 SW.
Was able to make a simple little video by adding a title, couple of transitions between clips etc, couple of chapter markers. All went fairly well. Then did "Share > Create Disc", used the default (only) disc template that came in the VS Pro X4 SW trial, selected AVCHD and burn disc, no issues, until I went to play the disc in my Sony Blu-Ray. Once the action in the video picked up and there was significant motion in the video the video started to break up, don't know the technical name for it, digital artifacts maybe? It doesn't look like the deinterlacing examples I've seen, which appear to be unaligned thin lines, this is more blotchy, like blocks of data not being filled in.
So then I tried it again and selected 2 pass conversion, this time it worked, which is good, but does that need to be done anytime your burning HD content to a AVCHD DVD?

I am editing a video using VS X3 and am using both AVCHD 1080i and AVCHD lite 720p clips.
What would be the best format to retain quality when I render as a file and then copy onto a USB stick to play on my Bluray player? My player seems able to read most formats.

In order to create a video file in the AVCHD 1920X1080 format, I have the following options in the VSP X6:
AVCHD (1920X1080)
AVCHD (1920X1080, 24P)
AVCHD (1920X1080, 25P)
AVCHD (1920X1080, 50P)
What is the differences between those formats, so I don't know what to choose. My original clips are 25 frames/sec, does it means that I have to choose the 25P?

I am having problems exporting my AVCHD file to my hard drive. The original file works fine in the preview window, but then exports as a very jerky video. The program I am using is VSX4 Ultimate, and there are no more updates available.
The video I am trying to export came from a camcorder SD card and has these properties:
File format: NTSC HDMV
Video Type: H.264 Video
Attributes: 24 bits, 1920 x 1080, 16:9
Data Rate: Variable bit rate (Max 26000 kbps)
Audio type: Dolby Digital Audio
Audio Bit rate: 256 kbps
Here are the project properties:
NTSC drop frame (29.97 fps)
MPEG files
24 bits, 720 x 480, 29.97 fps
Upper Field First
(DVD-NTSC), 16:9
Video data rate: Variable (Max. 8000 kbps)
LPCM Audio, 48000 Hz, Stereo
My goal is to export the video to my computer and have it look as good as it does in the preview.

I have a h.264 video file in .m2ts format, captured using a TV card, and I want to burn this to an AVCHD DVD. I've been trying to do this with VSX4. I don't want the video to be re-encoded because it's already in a suitable format. If I open X4, and then Create Disc and insert the video, the video plays fine and everything looks OK. However, when I click Burn on the final screen, I get a message saying that the video will take some time to render (oddly, since I've chosen the option not to convert compatible files, and VS seems to be taking notice of this choice because if I de-select it, the video size on the disc indicator increases). If I click OK, the rendering process seems to start but it jumps to 3% and then nothing happens. It just sits there.
I thought maybe VS had a problem with the video, so I tried inserting it onto the timeline, and I can edit and output it from there without any problems. But, I can't burn it to AVCHD DVD without re-encoding it, which I don't want to do because it will reduce the quality of what is already a compatible file.

I downloaded a 20 sec RAW .mts clip taken with a Panasonic TM700. I wanted to test it in VS X3 to see if the program would handle the file.
I noticed that when selecting "Project" to play the file in the preview window that certain elements of the clip look very noisy or overly sharp...Grainy, if you will. Other elements look slightly blurred. The playback seems smooth though.
However, If selecting "Clip" it looks much better. When I drag the sliders to expand the preview window to it's max size, the "Clip" playback looks flawless yet the "Project" playback, while slightly better, still looks less than desirable.
1). Why?
Here are the properties copied from the Time-line.
2)assuming I were to edit several clips from this camera in X3 to create a short 5-10 min film for upload to Vimeo, how would I best render to maintain the highest quality?
Before I decide to buy this camera, I just want to be sure that X3 can handle the files and that I have a fairly decent grasp of how to properly render the final video. In the mean time, I'll keep editing some sample clips and see how the program handles them. I'll also attempt to render a short film or 2 and see how that goes.

I have few avi video clips which I believe I imported from camcorder using windows moviemaker. When I play those clips in any media player they play fine.
I have latest Corel Video Studio Pro X3. When I import this videos into timeline and play clips sound plays fine but when I play the project there is no audio. Even if I render it there is no sound.

I'm wondering if it is normal for my clips to have jerky preview. I am editing 1080p MOV clips and I've made sure that Smart Proxy is enabled and that the files do exist. Smart Proxy settings are default to activate with any clip that is larger than 720X480. After I've dragged a clip onto the timeline I get jerky preview if I select "clip" and then click play. But if I select "project" it plays smoothly. Scrubbing is also smooth. My question is why are my clips so jerky? It seems that "clip" preview is automatically using the original video file and not the proxy. I'm on a slow computer, but that's not the issue because everything except the individual clips plays smoothly. And yes, the Smart Proxy icon is on my clips and it's had plenty of time to complete the proxy creation. I've even completely removed VS with Revo Uninstaller and reinstalled it. No change.

X4. I created a 48hz sample rate 24 bit WAV file on my portable Tascam recorder.. I am creating a sales presentation for my invention. I have brought in many different videos I created on my camera and have edited them successfully with single clip and multi clip. Also have been able to split audio out of video. adjust sections using the nodes with the sound mixer.. move audio after split to different areas on the timeline.. However I need to do some voice over work. I figured it would be much easier and better quality for me to use my tascam to create the wav's and then just drop them into the project, edit them and place them where I want them, mute the voice I have on the video..
I was able to bring the .wavs in just fine.. and while editing them in clip mode they play just fine, I can shorten them or cut them where I need too. But when I choose to play back the project with the .wav in one one of the additional sound/music tracks I get very nasty static only. None of my recorded voice is audible. click to clip mode on the wav audio and it plays perfect. I tried moving it to the voice over track area and same exact problem.
am I missing a switch function somewhere? I made sure I muted the video clips above the .wav in the timeline. The manual says to use import option to bring in audio files but I do not see an import button anywhere? missing something? seems to me the drag and drop or add to library a wave file should work.. ??

I have imported 5 clips into Videostudio Pro X4, all taken concurrently with the same camera/settings etc. If I play back a single clip, the quality is as I would expect it to be. If I switch to playing back project rather than clip, there is a noticeable drop in quality.

I used many clips capture from a Sony HD Camorder. Everything's working fine in Video Studio when I do a preview of my project.
My problem is with the exported file ; on some clip, when the clip begin the sound is muted for about 7-8 seconds, After that, the sound come back. I tried to slip the sound from the clip, remove the transition, nothing work.
I updated all the drivers...I tried on an other computer...still the problem.

Describe your problem: Once I've inserted a video file or files into the project timeline, playing the videos with the word "Project" under the screen highlighted, the audio (which is speech only) breaks up - all I hear is parts of words every second or two. Highlighting the term "Clip" just under "Project" provides clear, unbroken audio. This condition is new, first occurring after I installed VideoStudio Pro X3 Fix for MLE Database Incompatibility with PaintShop Photo Pro X3. Since then, I have re-loaded VSX3 and all the patches but to no avail. Note: the same video files can be processed by Windows Live Movie Maker and the audio and video come out fine, even if the effects are primitive.
What devices are involved and their mode of connection?: NONE, files are either in the VS Projects file or in my Videos folder. The Version of program is being used: Video Studio Pro X3. Please list all patches/updates that have been installed relating to that version of the program. I've installed all three patches and updates available on the Corel site (thru the User to User board) plus any updates offered by Corel.
Details of the source files. Quick Time movie, 24 bits 1280 x 720, 1 video track, 1 sound track - sound track is MPEG-4, low complexity
Where did they originate: camcorder
How did they get onto your hard drive USB cable
Type of video: Quick Time Movie
Video data rate: 29.970 frames/second
Type of audio: MPEG 4 low complexity
Audio data rate: 48,000 KHz, 16 bit, Stereo
Project Settings: As the software was shipped. I haven't changed any settings.
NTSC
Did this error occur at the: EDIT step - but it continues in the SHARE step - except the sound goes completely away after processing. OR have you gone directly to the SHARE - NO
Error Codes NONE

I am editing a video and the footage is an HD .mov (30 fps, 24bit 1920x1080 48s in length) file recorded directly from a logitech webcam. The clip plays fine in the Library, but when I add it to the storyboard/timeline the video plays super fast, then goes blank for the duration of the clip.

I purchased VideoStudio X5 for HD editing of .MTS clips from my Panasonic HS700 video camera. I transfer the clips to my hard drive using explorer and then use the X5 program to bring them into the library and then to the timeline. Due to my volume problem I re-downloaded VSX5, reinstalled it and installed SP1 patch, updated my Video Card Driver to the latest, updated Direct X and made sure my Microsoft Updates are all up to date.
My Volume problem is, during the editing proces you use both the Project playback and also individual clip playback. Without any manual changes to clip volume, when I play an individual clip the volume is substatially higher than when I play the project over the same clip area. This is annoying to me and those nearby. Earlier versions of VS did not do this.
If I change the individual clip volume up or down from 100% then when I play either the project or individual clip the volume remains the same (ie.it is no longer louder in clip mode).

Working with a 1080p/60fps mp4 file from my GoPro 3. Trying to save a trimmed clip using "same as first video clip" option. Everything seems to work fine but the saved clip plays for a second and then the video freezes but the audio continues. This happens playing the clip with WMP and VSx6. The original untrimmed mp4 plays fine.

Using X5 pro, a project comprising an introduction and 6 clips was created, with menu. Each clip has its own sound (voice and music). The rendering config included 2 pass conversion and normalise sound checked, for creation of a disk image on an HDD folder. The preview worked fine - vision and sound OK. Because there were multiple disks to be made, the image creation also worked fine, as did the burn disk from iso.
But when the resulting disk was played back after burning, the first clip on it had no sound. Imagery fine, just no sound. It wasn't an isolated case. A repeat try - with particular care to check this aspect, ie sound on the clip, was OK during preview - got the same result in the final disk.
