I am operating Videostudio ProX5 and this is my first attempt. I have transferred my film, edited, added music, added chapters with the little green marker, but when I create disc and try to use the chapter menus it finds them but will not create chapters.
View 14 RepliesI used VideoStudio Pro X3 to create a project and I created 30 chapters, but when I create the output video file (Blu-Ray NTSC H.264 1920x1080), the chapter information is not retained, so all I have is one big video file and don't have the ability to skip to other chapters.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIt seems I can't do this simple thing. Using Pro X2 I rendered together 4 mini videos on different subjects. Total time 40 minutes. I hit Share>Create Disc> DVD>Add Chapter (I added 4 chapters)>OK>Selected one of Thumb Nail Menus templates>Preview... and the menus shows only one chapter thumbnail, saying 1/1. I've done it over and over again and can not get my 4 chapters to show on menus template.

For the first time since, I've burned a multi-chapter DVD and when I play it there is no audio on Chapters 2-4 but it sounds fine on the menu music and the first chapter. Each chapter is an AVI and plays fine in VS and then in the menu preview.
I've reinstalled the software a couple of times and tried a different DVD+R but still no audio on half of the disc.
Any way to add more Chapter pointers on the actual DVD menu itself. It seems like the provided DVD menu templates, and I've installed the extras in VSP X4, only have 4~5 chapter pointers per DVD menu page. There's plenty of screen space to add more chapter pointers but how to do it. I tried clicking on one and doing a copy, but can't seem to go any further than that. I must be missing something somewhere. I want to have 6~12 links to chapters on each DVD menu page. I don't need a preview image for each chapter pointer, just a simple text pointer is fine.
Is there a way to do add more to the DVD menus?
I'm having problems on two different PC's with creating a Share/Create Disk/ DVD project in Video Studio 11+. On one PC after I create the DVD project (three separate videos each with its own menu, etc) and save it, when I return later to actually burn the DVD the chapter names are gone. The rest of the information seems to still be there.
To try to get around the above problem I moved the videos, music, etc to my laptop (also Video Studio 11+) and there when I add the three videos to the Share/Create Disk/ DVD project and then click on Add/Edit Chapters, the video does not open up to allow me to move the jog bar and add chapters. If I click on the auto add option Visual Studio crashes.
PS...I have the same experience on the laptop with Video Studio 12...
I finally have my project done. I click Share, then try to change the bitrate lower it says I am 2.5gigs over. When I change it nothing happens on the left side, it still stays the same. Also it does not import my chapters that I have set in the editing mode?
I have saved it to a video file, in case it may be easier to do it that way? I have a difficult time finding it in the their programs library. X12 use to automatically import your chapters from the editing mode when they were set.
Either I am confused (which can be easy) or it is more difficult to figure things out in X3.
I have a single project in X5 with which I want to have several chapters on a DVD menu. The trick is that I want to have all of the chapters on the first DVD menu that comes up, not on a sub-menu to the main menu. The only way I have been able to accomplish this is to break the project into separate projects per chapter, then load each individual project into the Create Disc sofware through the Add Media option. This is a big hassle and something I do not want to do very often. Is there an easier way to accomplish what I am wanting or am I out of luck with this software?
View 5 Replies View RelatedThe last version of VS I've used was V10. Just installed X5. I'm making a disk that has 2 videos in it. I want 2 menu options, one for each video file. The way I used to do it was to create 2 projects. In each project I'd edit the video as I need. I'd then create a 3rd project and add both projects with the edited videos in them.
Is this still the way to create a disk with multiple videos in it or is there a better way? If I do it this way will I get any audio sync problems? Had that with older versions.
Also, can I edit 2 videos in the same project without having them both in the same timeline?
been using Videostudiopro X5 for few years typically just for weddings and I do not use chapters. I need to edit and produce a dance recital this week and wondering if this is possible:
Producing 2 hours to a DL disc and will have 34 total dances. I will set a chapter marker for each dance. When it comes time for the menu, can I have 17 chapters on 2 pages for total of 34? I would like to have one menu page with 2 submenu pages, 1 submenu page for Act 1, 1-17 with song name and another for Act 2, 18-34 with song name.
I can do this with Sony Vegas, but prefer editing with VSPro.....
I have created a presentation made of up an audio track adn lots of images, some video, text etc. I thought I put chapeters in and named them by inserting the green triangles in the timeline.
When I rendered to a DVD none of the chapters show up. How to get the Chapters to show up in DVD (or other vieo format)?
I have a few questions i just downloaded the demo version
1) how do i set it up to auto detect chapters in corel video studio x5
2) i am trying to burn dvd from a sony ccd - trv43 camcorder what are the best setting to use to burn the dvd .
I upgraded from the old Video Studio 10 Plus to the Corel Pro 3X. I am now in the process of downloading all the Get More updates. While I am doing this, here is my Menu/Chapter problem.
1. I created the first video (part 1). I somehow have a main menu, and the the second menu has my chapters to select. Yay! I saved the menu to My Favorites. The DVD works great, a person can select a chapter to play,etc.
2. Now I am trying to create the second video (part 2). Somehow in My Favorites I have two menu templates from the first DVD I created. I have tried selecting each one and am trying to create a main menu, and then the second menu with 4 chapters. But each time I end up with 4 chapter menus, but I want the second menu to have the 4 chapters on it that you select a chapter thumbnail that your want to view.
I hate to start from scratch because I like the fonts, etc. from the first DVD, which is part 1.
I recently created a dvd which includes 'chapters'. I 'create Video' (DVD) file then 'create disk' to DVD folders on hard disk and then use Ashampoo to burn to DVD.
My 'Create Disk' has two menus, the top menu for the 'only' Video file and then the next menu which includes 2 chapters. When I do a 'Preview' BOTH menus appear (I click on the small window of the top which shows 30 seconds of the video file and then the second menu appears with my 2 'chapters which also have small windows displaying 30 seconds of the relevant part of the video file).
ALSO in the 'currently displayed menu I have 3 menus in the drop down - 'Main Menu', '2012 trip', and Main Menu: Note Menu (where this came from). So it all looks good as I expect. HOWEVER the resulting DVD NEVER displayed the second menu.
I'm at the stage in Trevor's guide entitled 'My guide from Mpeg Capture to Burn'
Burn a DVD
stage 11/ add menus and chapters as required.
I have navigated to the exact points and done add chapter for each point, but the Thumbnails are not the best possible for the indicating the section's contents.
Post says double click on the thumbnail. I do that, navigate in the preview window to a more representative scene. Then it appears all I can do is 'add chapter', then it appears on the timeline as an extra chapter. My question is has it really increased the chapters, or is it just that UVS only has this way to show the new Thumbnail ?
I usually create several smaller .vsp projects for managing purposes and in each project I create several chapter points by inserting the green arrow icon as described on page 96 of the user guide. I then combine a couple .vsp projects in order to fill a dvd by the following sequence:
1/ start with a new blank project
2/ click on 3 share tab up top
3/ click on create disc / dvd
4/ add 2 vsp projects or more
5/ Click add/edit chapters to confirm proper chapters points have carried through from previous vsp projects
It is at this point where I notice all chapter points have been deleted from the individual vsp projects which is very frustrating.
I have also updated with SP1 & 2, and I have checked to see that the software is up to date via the Corel Guide message center and it says that it is.
I have also noticed that if i create a DVD of one project, the chapter points stay intact, however the name of the selected clip changes to untitled.
I have setup and renamed the chapters in the timeline using the Chapter Point Manager. I enter the Share section to author the DVD. Create Menu is check marked. I enter the Add/Edit Chapter to Automaticall add chapter info. I click OK and click next to choose a menu template and discover my renamed chapter info is gone and set to the default Chapter 1, chapter 2.........
I go back to the project to check on the chapters points I renamed and discover all the renamed chapters are gone. Is this a bug?

I want to create a DVD with 3 or 4 simple links to chapters and extras that can be accessed with a remote from the DVD menu. I am sure it must be possible.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI can add chapters to my video and then rename them to my liking. When I go to share and then automatic chapters, all of my names disappear and get renamed to the time marker. Is there anything I can do about this?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI use VS Pro X4 sporadically, but I seem to recall that when previewing my work before burning a DVD, I was able to see my chapter's/menu's that I created - in the Adding/Editing Chapter option. I would then click on their remote control and select/test out my "links" before burning a disc. I must be doing something wrong because when I choose Preview, my main screen custom menu doesn't appear.
If I play around a bit, I can select "Top Menu" on the remote and click a number - which brings me to the chapter (but again, I can see my main menu/chapter screen - the screen that would appear when someone loads my DVD to play it).
Seems like the greatest number of text chapters one can have on a DVD menu screen is 8. On the other hand, there is one thumbnail template that permits 9 (although the layout option under customize still only permits no more than 8 in one screen).
Are these real limits? I would have liked to have had 9 text chapter links on one screen but can't see anyway to get it. All in all I'd like to have an option where one builds a menu from scratch (background, buttons, etc), with a drop down list of chapter points so one can link them with text or thumbnails (a la Pinnacle).
If I put a Video on a DVD, with the menus in VS11, I can name it, then I see the chapters. I can put two Videos on, with chapters. What I want to do is, put two videos, with separate Names, with their own chapters.
Can't explain very good, so I'll give an example; I have a documentary that aired in 2 parts. I want to put both of them on a DVD. I would like the menu to have the title of the documentary, with both videos as a choice.
DOCUMENTARY NAME
1. Name of part one - with it's own chapter points
2. Name of part two - with it's own chapter points
This way I can put the disc in, go right to part two without having to go through each chapter until I get to the second video.
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.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have created 2 Bluray discs with Video Studio X5 using clips from my HS700 Panasonic. The clips are high quality HD 1920x1080 AVCHD and import into VS as .mts files. I have created two discs and menus and burned them successfully and at the same time used the function that enables a file version to be stored. The discs play beautifully with menus working well on my Samsung Bluray player and TV and also in my PC drive E using WIN DVD Pro 11 (trial version).
My problem is when I try to play the VSX5 created file on C drive, with WIN DVD Pro 11, if I select the BDMV file it says "media not supported" and if I select the STREAM file it plays the files in the order that VSX5 created them, therefore playing the file 0000.m2ts first and onward to the last. In this case there were 4 AVCHD 1920x1080 h264 files rendered to video files and onto the disc and PC file with menus, therefore VSX5 created 18 .m2ts files in the stream file, 4 video files numbered 0000,0001,0002, 0003 and 14 menu files 0004, through to 0018, all of these .m2ts.
WinDVD Pro 11 plays the stream file as a Playlist in strict numerical order therefore playing the menu files last and not as a selectable thing.I guess my big questions are.1) Am I doing something incorrectly OR 2) Does WIN DVD Pro 11 ever play a Corel VSX5 created PC file as a menu selectable Bluray file like it does with a disc?I am running Windows 7-64 Professional with two 1TB hard drives, I have tried the files on either hard drive without success in playing as I expect (like a disc).
To go back a bit, I have a library of DVD VS created files and play through the Windows Media Centre, however with the Bluray ones it tells me I need to have a Bluray Player, hence my downloading the trial WINDVD Pro 11. The old DVD files had a TS file which contained the files necessary to play the video with menu, but there does not seem to be an equivalent in the Bluray folder.
VS X4 Ultimate still has a very annoying bug that I noticed already in VS X3.
Here it is.
I have a very simple project: 1 AVCHD clip (1920x1080, 25fps, interlaced), preceded by a simple title on black background and followed by another title on black background. The clip and the 2 titles are connected by transitions (standard transition provided by VSX4). No effects are used. The audio of the clip is muted and a WAV file is placed in an audio track. I rendered into AVCHD interlaced 1920x1080 (the standard template from Corel) and I can see a place-holder of the final file in Windows Explorer: the file has size 0KB because the VSX4 is currently editing it. At the end of the rendering, the file disappear! NO file is created and VSX4 gives NO error message. Notice that the same behavior did not happen with another video clip, same characteristic (I just used the same project and replaced the video clip). The other video clip is taken from the same camera, with no different setting, and imported to the PC at the same time. Also, on the PC there is enough space to store the rendered file.
This is the part that mostly piss me off: I can accept that could exist some issue with the video clip, or the chosen transition, or whatever else... but what I can't really digest is that if anything goes wrong, the SW creates no file without reporting any error message, like if everything were ok.
I am a new user of Corel X5. If I "burn" a disc with the "Create DVD Folders" option, how can I use Corel to later burn the created Video_TS files to a DVD disc? I see an option in Corel for burning created disk image folders (ISO) to disc, but not for DVD folders.
View 4 Replies View RelatedShooting with Canon 5DmkII DSLR, which provides 1920x1080 .MOV files at 29.97 fps. Data rate on the files is about 45Mbps, with a total bit rate marginally higher.I have been asked to output .MOV at 29.97, 1920x1080 progressive with PhotoJPEG compression at 90%, square pixels.
In Proj. Properties, I seem to need Microsoft AVI (MPEG doesn't allow 1920x1080 option). No compression, and have obviously kept 29.97 fps. Whether I want to perform non-square pixel rendering at this point, and haven't yet found any info on whether the camera shoots square or non-square pixels. Or I want frame-based or upper or lower fields first. I haven't found any explanation of what this means in the product documentation.
I've created an output template to give 1920x1080 at 29.97 fps, 24-bit colour. Again don't know whether to pick frame-based or upper or lower field first. Using PhotoJPEG compression (100% seems the only setting available, but that's OK).
In the final Create dialogue box Options, there is another chance to render non-square pixels (I'm assuming "no" here since I want square), as well as a checkbox for Smart Render, but again no explanation as to why I would need it.
So I've been practicing with 10sec clips to see what happens. With the above settings, the creation takes a couple of minutes and I have been able to generate a huge 1.6GB output file. Play is somewhat jerky since I don't think my computer can keep up. The input files are e.g. 233MB for 44sec, or about 5.3 MB/sec. Am I wrong to expect the output to be about the same size? Curiously, I have been able to generate 50MB files for two of the videos, and the rendering only took a couple of seconds. Unfortunately I have not been able to repeat this, but rather get these 1.6-1.7GB files as the routine. I have tried different input files with the same result.

I have tried to burn a disc with .mpg .mpg 2 .mp4 and .wmv formats and ALL have failed. I have created chapters in V Studio and they are not seen once i click on create disc and I have gone thru the grief of recreating the chapters
All of this has failed, at the end - 99% of burning. With the .wmv file, burning failed after 10 seconds. I have been able to sucessfully burn a disc using Windows burning software, so I know my drive is working fine, but really want to do this professionally (windows software created its own chapters and they are NOT where I want them and don't seem to be editable.
