View 2 Repliesim trying to edit video (local car racing) that I have recorded from my GOPRO's (hero 3 Black) @ 1080p 60fps,when I go picture in picture. now when I try to line them up so they are sync'd when I play back project the video becomes glitchy like its skipping frames.
I have had enabled 50/60p editing ive gone into project properties and tried both ntsc and pal in 60fps and @ 1920x1080p frame size. I noticed I couldn't change mpeg (pal). it was at 25fps.. and gopro records in Mpeg..
what can I do to retain the 60fps quality..
I have been experiencing an error message from Windows Media Player when attempting to skip ahead (fast forward) with MPEG-4 HD files that I am creating with VideoStudio Pro X5. After the new MP4 HD file is first created (this can take anywhere from 30 minutes to 3 hours depending on the length of the clip, which are between 15 and 40 minutes), I open the file to view it in Windows Media Player. It starts playing normally with no problems, but as soon as I click to skip ahead on the timeline bar, an error message displays stating "Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file". In the last 10 attempts or so I have only been succesful in creating one MP4 HD file that allows skipping ahead... I am not doing anything differently (that I am aware of, at least) when I "get lucky" and manage to create a file that does not generate the error message, and after burning the last 9 hours on three more failed attempts I decided to check
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am having trouble with stuttering video/audio while playing WMV files in VS Pro X5 SP1. Any clip which I try to view will stutter on playback (sounds like a scratched/dirty CD). These files play fine in Media Player Classic. Other file formats (e.g. mp4) play fine in VS, it is just WMV files that are doing this. I don't get any errors, it just doesn't playback correctly.
The WMV files were created within this installation of VS Pro X5 SP1. The original source varies. I've started with .MTS files from my Canon camcorder SD card (reader built into PC), or from mp4 files which I also created from this installation of VS. When I share the files, I get no errors. I've had it happpen with 3 minute files, and with 11 second files.
One example file that does this is:
file size 3,405 KB
Duration 11.064 seconds
Data rate 2481 kdps
Video: Windows Media Video 9
24 bits, 1280x720, 29.970 frames/sec
Audio: Windows Media Audio 9.2
44.100 KHz, 16 bits, Stereo
Aspect ratio 1.78:1.0
Is editable: yes
Project settings are:
NTSC drop frame (29.97 fps)
Microsoft AVI files
24 bits, 720 x 480, 29.97 fps
Lower Field First
MJPEG Compressor
PCM, 44.100 kHz, 16 Bit, Stereo
I've also tried changing the Project settings to this, but the WMV file still comes out as 44.1 and the same issue occurs:
NTSC drop frame (29.97 fps)
Microsoft AVI files
24 bits, 720 x 480, 29.97 fps
Lower Field First
MJPEG Compressor
PCM, 48.000 kHz, 16 Bit, Stereo
Not sure if this is related or not, but when I installed the latest version of VS Pro X5, I started having trouble with windows media player. At the moment, WMP won't play DVD's or WMV files because it says it doesn't have the codec. I'm running WPM 11 on Win XP and it is the most current version.
I just want to warn that the SP2 patch of VS Pro X3 is incompatible with rendering and playback of mpeg-2 files. Your mpeg-2 files will finish rendering with SP2, but the rendered file will have audio distortions. Corel has a patch to repair it (only send to someone who calls Corel & complain about mpeg-2 render problems), but the patch causes a hiccup in the preview playback of the mpeg-2 clip just after the rendering is finished. The result only plays smooth after pause and starting of the playback from beginning again.
View 14 Replies View RelatedWhat a good start after just installing X4. I tried to add my avi files for editing and every single one fails with the catastrophic failure message. If I double click any avi file, the windows media player plays it fine.
I have edited these avi files many times with x2 before. I tried opening mpg files and they were ok. So im guessing its to do with an avi decoder? - but if so why does the avi file play fine in windows media player?
I have been using VideoStudio software for many years, so am familiar with the way earlier versions work.
I have been working on a new major video project using VideoStudio Pro X4 Ultimate edition the past few days, and have been relatively happy, even with the ProDad. But I have just uploaded some Wav files from a Zoom H4 and although they all load OK and Play OK on the timelines in CLIP mode, when I click on PROJECT and play the same sound files they just provide extremely loud 'white-noise', in other words I'm unable to edit the sound files at all! I thought that possibly the Wav 48.000KHz 24 Bit, Stereo files were at fault, but if I clicked back to CLIP and then pressed play, all the sound is perfect! So it is NOT the sound files but something within X4 Pro.
To double check my sound files, I opened up the exact same Wav files in the Corel Ulead Videostudio 11 Plus software, and ALL the sound files play correctly in both CLIP and PROJECT! This is a VERY serious problem because I cannot edit many important sound files with VS PRo X4 Ultimate edition!
I've tried some 44KHz 16Bit stereo files and they seem to play OK in Project mode within Pro X4.
probably isn't an X4 issue exactly, but when i'm done editing a video file in X4, i'll close the file and insert the next video file to edit. when i go into windows explorer to delete the first file i just finished editing, it won't let me delete it because it says it's currently in use. How to delete it without having to close down X4 to do so?

So when I bought my Canon 5D MKII I thought the HD files would be easier/better to work with. I have edited together some files just for tests with and without crossfades, but both have either resulted in shakey/jerky footage, or the program crashing saying 'send the dump file to Ulead for analysis.
Basically I perform smart proxy to shrink the files to make them smoother to edit, then when I try to render to .mov again, the footage is jerky, but then I can rerender to mpeg2. The problem is that the mpeg2 footage is only about 95% smooth. It will be flowing along then every 5-10 seconds there will be a jump. If I try to render straight to anything else - mpeg2, H.264, MPEG4, it just crashes after 3 seconds giving the same dump file message.
The files the camera produces are
1920x1080 quicktime (.mov)
25fps
48,000KHz, 16 bit, stereo
My hardware is
Sony Vaio laptop
Intel Duo Core 2.2ghz
Windows 7 home premium
64 bit
4GB Ram
Ulead version Pro X3
I have downloaded all the latest patches, and I downloaded the latest Directx (I'm not sure what this is, I just followed the link on the forum for the June 2010 one; is it an automatic thing?)
So I have a decent computer, and fantastic camera, and Ulead's top program - why can't I get a smooth end file??
I use proxy files for my AVCHD editing. One of the options in the compression settings relates to " quality vs speed". Imo Proxy files are working files which content is not used for the final rendering. what the meaning / consequence is of the quality vs speed choice?
View 3 Replies View RelatedIf 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 have an HV 40 and take the video off with Hd Split.I put 30 minutes of video in the time line and then want to break it up to 8 -9 minute segments. I tried using the scissors to cut each segment and then delete what I don't want and share - output - mpg optimizer. That gave me five files. The first one is fantastic, what you would expect. The rest all have a jump or stutter at the beginning. Just for one second of play, the rest is great.
So I thought I must be doing something wrong, and then started over with multi-trim. I cut the five segments out using that and the same thing. I thought I would live with it. So then I converted all the clips to MP4 HD. Just to reduce file size and make easier to upload. Now the thing I was going to live with looks twice as bad. It went from being almost unnoticeable to a major glitch. Rest of video plays great and you can hardly tell any quality difference between it and the original.
So then I started playing around with cutting off the front 1.5 seconds of the clip and that seems to actually work. To get rid of it. But it is more work and I don't think professional.
Then I read something about fade ins so I tried that. I took the original first cut of the second segment and put it into the overlay track and used the little fade in slider in the preview window, to have a slight black fade into the clip. This covers up the jitter but the entire clip is now noticeably degraded. I mean it looks lousy!I went straight to mp4 this time, instead of making the fade and then using the optimizer to go to the same format and then convert.
So now I am a bit discouraged. I have a fast six core computer am using the latest corel x4 pro and it seems that things are not going to go very well. Simply cutting the video to make edits results in jitter at the start of each cut clip and messing with a fade in just ruins the quality. What to do?

BTW going from the mpg to the mp4 reduces the size by about half which makes up load reasonable, but still an all night affair.
While editing a large video file (one hour), the audio playback worked for a while, but then simply stopped working. Can still see video and edit it, but without hearing the words / background, editing will not be correct. Is there a bug in the software or some way of reseting the file? I have noticed a similar issue with videos in LR4.

View 13 Replies View RelatedI've uploaded MPEGs from Panasonic DMC-TZ7 on HD quality. Audio works fine when playing clips and when played on Quicktime. When playing back on Project, I get a chopped pulsing noise on some parts (although they play OK as clips). I used simple fade to black transitions and trimmed clips. When I finish project, the sound was OK on the first clip but I get no sound or the odd pulse of sound on subsequent clips.
I have re-installed VS pro X3 and downloaded the latest patches but it makes no difference.
I'm using pro x4, had no problems til today
I'm using win7, and just from today, x4 has stopped giving any sound output. Playing mpg files I can see the sound levels in the mixer, but there's no output audio. I can hear mpg audio in other players, just not in Corel.
I recently transferred collection of Super8 movies from a VHS tape and burned to a DVD. Upon playback on the computer, as well as preview prior to burning, the audio on the clips worked fine. However when the disc was played on the DVD player ( tried my blu-ray player as well), there was only audio in sections where I had added an audio track. Did I miss something ?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am playing a section of a project in Timeline view. The section is marked by the Trim Markers. Starts fine but then pauses/stops when it reaches the end of the accompanying music (an mp3) rather than at the second Trim Marker. Theses two points are different because the video fades to black as the music finishes. The video should continue to run for 2 or 3 seconds more with a black screen.
I've noticed that if I select the Sound Mixer and then play the section between the Trim Markers it works fine i.e. plays up to the second Trim Marker.
Also, it seems that if I create a video of the selected part of the project this works fine too.
I just seem to be getting the problem in Timeline view when I have black video that runs after an mp3. I have checked multiple projects where I have the same effect (fade to black as music ends) and I am getting exactly the same problem. As the sound stops, so does the playback.
Background is that I am new to X3 and struggling. I had problems authoring in X3 so used X2,. Then had a problem with X2 so re-installed. Then found this problem when editing again in X3 so reinstalled X3!
When editing DV from my old mini dv camcorder, how can I get the final edit to fill the screen without the black side bars after puting on to a dvd and playing back on a 1080x1920 tv. does VS pro x4 have a setting to eliminate the black bars?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI recently burned video footage to DVD with VS Pro X5 (with the parameters already set in the VS Pro Burning module), and played the DVD on my DVD player...the DVD played pretty well on my player, though some "striations" or moire appeared in the background on some building sidings early on--but it didn't distort the overall play-ability of a particular sequence...
However, when I played the DVD on a friend's DVD player, the beginning of the DVD broke up and "de-pixillated," for want of a better word--though 2/3rds of the DVD's later footage played OK (and a commercial DVD played just fine on my friend's DVD player just before all this)...
That result left me very puzzled, why it should play more-or-less OK on my own DVD player, but so horrendously on another DVD player...
Is there some VS Pro (or a utility program) filter that I can run the footage through prior to/during a DVD Burn in VS Pro to get a smooth rendering of the footage?
I started to work now with HD clips captured from my new HD camcorder. At the EDIT step, the play back of the entire project is not smooth, there is no continuity of the video and the audio. After the SHARE/CREATE VIDEO FILE step, the play back runs good.
View 4 Replies View RelatedNot had this before, just put a couple of minutes clip into the timeline ready to edit and when I play through it, the video is jerky/jittery on playback. If I click on it in the library and play it without pulling it in to the timeline, it is fine, and if I click on the video without opening the programme, it also plays fine ? If you watch the timeline scrubber as the video jerks, you can see a trail of little white shadows that the scubber leaves behind as it stutters ? I have tried with other clips and it does exactly the same ! The clip is AVCHD clip, and.... I have let it create a smart proxy file before playing it.
View 13 Replies View RelatedI have a new camera which records in AVCHD format. I have transferred the video files from my camera to the computer. I have compiled a project on Video Studio ProX2. When I playback each clip they play at normal speed. When I playback the project before copying onto a disc the playback is very fast. I have also got as far as sharing the project onto a disc but when I click on preview the playback is again very fast. I see that I can slow down the playback but this also slows down any speech on the video.
I have used Video studio PRox for a couple of years now with great success with an old Sony Handycam but I must need to do something to the new format to play it back at normal speed.
I am using a Firewire and have a Sony Handycam. I find that although VSX4 captures okay - that when I stop the capture and go through to 'Edit", the project playback or clip playback won't play, and yet if I use the 'scrubber' with my mouse, it plays the entire captured part.
This is a little hard to explain: what happens is during 'video capture' - VSX4 begins to capture and then the preview screen freezes. The capturing however continues, even though the preview screen has frozen. After a couple of minutes I stop the capture and go through to 'edit' but I find when I press the button to play back (either as a 'project' or 'clip') it actually stops at the part where the preview screen had frozen whilst capturing. However, if I use my mouse on the 'scrubber' line, I can view the entire capture (e.g. the part after the preview screen froze).
Using Corel VideoStudio Pro X3 and either Corel DVD Moviefactory 7SE or Corel DVDFactory Pro 2010, the playback quality of the burned disks is poor. While the completed project has excellent quality both direct from the hard drive AND when using Windows Explorer and just copying directly to the DVD, anytime I attempt to create a simple menu structure, it seems that the entire video is re-rendered causing a significant loss in video quality from the original. I have tried all settings in both packages even just including the created 660MB mpeg4 (rather than the project itself) in Pro 2010 and the result is a 220MB file. Again, when I just use Windows Explorer and copy directly the DVD, the original video is preserved including the 660MB file size and the quality is the same as the project.

I shot some video's with my HD-camcorder (Samsung HMX-H200) this New Year's Eve, and now I want to put them all together and make a nice video. My problem is that when I try to preview/edit the 1080p HD video's the preview screen just goes black, and there is no sound either. But when I put the entire unedited clip into my project it WILL play, but then I cant really edit anything. I also used another camera that shoots in 720p, and those video's play and can be edited perfectly The version that I am currently using is 14.0.0.342, and it says that there are no new updates.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have been using Ulead Video Studio 6 for years creating slide shows and burning them to DVD. While playing DVD, made in Ulead Video, the slide show would display in full screen on any TV (for example a horizontal picture would be displayed in full screen and vertical picture would be displayed from top to bottom exposing some black background on the sides which is OK). Now I am using Video Studio Pro X3 and after I create a DVD there is a black background around each photo during playback. In other words, each photo seems to be slightly reduced in size or there is a black border around it during playback of DVD.
