I am pulling myhair out here HAve just purchased X5 and having fun playing with it BUT I cannot figure out how to put a title on a chapter. If I add a chapter it will come up with the thumbnail and the time under it But unlike the earlier versions where you could simple change the title and thumbnail to what you want X5 seems to have hidden this feature very well.
View 5 RepliesIs there a way to preserve chapter markings when you output to an MP4? I output from VideoStudio Pro X4 to MPEG-4/iPhone H.264 (640 X 480) and the chapters disappear. I'd also like to have a title page, too, but I don't know how to do that either.

When I add chapter and Cue points to a project, say for example at the beginning of a specific clip in the middle of the project, just as soon as I delete or add another clip anywhere in the timeline before that clip, the chapter and Cue points become obsolete as they do not move with the clip that they were assigned to and now mark some unintended place within the project.
Every time this happens, I have to go in and manually move all chapter/Cue points. Is there any way to set chapter and Cue points be be relative within a clip, thus allowing them to move automatically and not need to be manually reset every time clips are added to or deleted from the project?
With VSX3 DVD production done by DMF 7 SE , are chapter markers added in the project timeline useless as we have to redo all chapters when transfered by VSX3 into DMF 7 SE ? or is there a way to have the markers trigger a chapter as before ?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI want to make a DVD with three (or more) short movie clips (Chapters?? Titles ??) which can be played individually, or from start to finish. I want a menu with a structure something like: Main Page with two buttons - Button 1 to play the whole movie (ie starting with clip 1 and then 2 and 3 until the end), and Button 2 which will take me to a new menu page where I can select individual clips, This page will have one button per clip, and if I select Clip 2 I want Clip 2 to play and then return to the menu (preferably menu page 2) without going on to play Clip3, 4 etc.
At present I am using the trial version of Video Studio to try it out before committing myself to a purchase, but I cannot access a user guide (which I understand only comes with the full version). Therefore I cannot find out how to construct such a menu system, or indeed even find out if such is possible with this product.
Does Video Studio (any version) allow a Menu structure as I have described and if so how can I do it?
Although I have been using x12 for some time I have never created a chapter menu before.
Even though I select "select a background image for all menus" when I do a 'preview' then select the video to play the background image remains displayed briefly and then the chapter menu fades in with a light blue background (not the background image I selected for all menus).
Is it possible to set the background for the 'chapter menu' and if so how? Also how can I CHANGE the displayed "chapter 1", "chapter 2" etc to something more meaningful?
I did my project (.vsp) and marked a dozen chapter points. I then selected Share tab , Create Disc, Bluray (1920x 1440), added 2 other projects (.vsp), created my main menu (BD authoring), then burned into BMDV folders (to correct before burning to disc) . I then created an image file (with ImgBurn) to keep for future copies. When I play my image file (PowerDVD9), I have my main menu, start the movie, plays fine, but no "next chapter" to jump to (always come back to the beginning of the movie. Are chapter points recognized and activated in Bluray ?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have successfully created a production and defined 34 chapters (and names), but when I proceed to the step of creating the menu for my DVD the menu only lists the chapters as "Chapter 1", "Chapter 2", etc. all the way to Chapter 34.

When creating a menu for a DVD, the first chapter defaults to 00:00:00:00, the beginning of the DVD. I don't want to have that be the first chapter. I want to either remove that chapter or change the time location.

I have created several chapter markers in the video timeline and when I go to share and create a DVD or blu ray disk I see the chapter markers are reflected in the the create chapter menu which is what I would expect. I don't want to create a whole disk but I want to create a video file like mp4 that includes the chapter markers as part of the video file. I believe that the mp4 format supports chapter markers based on this page [URL]
I can't seem to create a video output file that also includes the chapter markers. Is this possible in video studio x4 or am I forced to create a DVD or blu ray disk with a menu structure in order to preserve the chapters in the resultant output?
I have a trial version of Video Studio X5 and I am trying to decide if I want to buy it. I am very interested in making DVDs from family video clips.
I guess I am a bit confused about making menus w/ chapter links. I successfully used the "Edit" tab to make a nice movie w/ transitions and chapters. The "Add/Remove Chapter Point" button seems to work just fine, w/ little green triangles on my timeline. However, when I go to make a DVD via the "Share" tab, it seems like the clips are still present on the bottom of the screen, but the program has forgotten all my chapter markings. I see that I can "Add/Edit Chapter" if I want (under "Edit media:") but I just want to use the chapter settings I created when I was on the Edit tab. I found a bunch of tutorial videos and they all seem to involve adding chapters at this point (under "Share" but not under "Edit").
Related question, I am pretty sure I should be able to do the following but not positive Can I create a simple menu that has a user-specified number of chapter links on it? I just want a simple background photo w/ still-thumbnails as links to my chapters.
Am on x5 and Windows 7
Am creating chapters in edit mode and adding chapter names. When I go to create mode I can find no-way to automatically populate the DVD menu with the pre-inputted names i created in edit mode. Assume this must be possible.
I am using Pro X3.
When I create a home movie and add chapter points through the edit mode, and then go to burn a DVD, the Chapter points that I created in the edit mode are not showing up in the Corel DVD Factory burning software.
I can re-add the chapter, but why would the chapters that I just added, not show up? What is the point of having the options to add chapters in the edit mode, if this information was not transferrable to the burning process?
I'm using VS X4 (I know - I'm behind the times!) and I am wanting to burn a DVD of a clip that has more than four chapters.
I the 'Menu and Preview' section I am offered a Main Menu and additional Chapter Menu which has up to four chapters on it. They are faily basic affairs. I have changed the background to have the same static picture and the same title 'Cornwall 2013'.
The Main Menu simply has a play button only along with a link called 'Scene Selection...' which takes the viewer to the Chapter Menu screen. The Chapter Menu has the four relevant chapters that can be selected along with the standard navigation buttons.
The problem is that in the Menu and Preview section it only allows me to edit the first page of the Chapter menu screen ( as I say I have more than four chapters so there are several screens).
The problem is when I go to preview, the second page of the Chater Menu instead of having 'Cornwall 2013' has the clip name displayed instead (which initially was 'Unknown' until I renamed it.
I also want to give the Chapters 'proper' names, but I don't know how to access the Chapters after number 4. I cannot seem to rename them in the add/edit chapter section either? I can only sem to change the first four chapter names as that is all I am offered.
When I choose a DVD-menu the default chapter names are "chapter01" to chapter99" where 99 is the last chapter number. I do use the German language version. The it is "Kapitel01" to "Kapitel99".
I do not want to have the word "Kapitel" in each line of the menu. I only want to have the chapter number. "01" to "99". Not the short numbers which count from 1 again on each page of the menu.
Is it possible to change the text "Kapitel" to blank or to delet the text to get only the chapter numbers als default chapter names? Can I configure it manual in any configuration file. I think that the word "Kapitel" comes from a German language file? Can I change it to blank there?
I have used earlier versions of VS in the past with virtually no issues , last version wbeing VS11 Plus. I recently "Upgraded" to VS Pro X2 and am trying to burn my first project with it. During the share stage, trying to make a DVD I get the message "Some chapter entry frame numbers exceed the total frames" and NO I did not edit the project after adding the chapters in the share stage. Seems from google searches that this is an old issue for which Ulead issued a patch in earlier versions, but it is back! One post suggested creating a video file of the whole project then importing that without creating a new project then sharing it and adding chapters.
I tried that and found that the audio for the second half of the project got dropped. If you press Info on the DVD player it displays Dolby 3/2 on the TV screen, but the AVamp shows no Blue Dolby multichannel light and detects no audio streams available. This dropping of audio occurs at a transition between two clips in the original project. The "missing" audio is present in the mpeg file created, and you can hear it if you play the file in the "Edit" tab. It simply does not get carried over to the disc burn. I tried twice. ANyway, that is a secondary issue and I'm not too bothered about that. I would much rather get a fix for the Chapter frame numbers issue and thus avoid the video file creation process.
I have tried taking a few frames out of each clip and re-rendering the whole project again to no avail. I have also tried deselecting two pass conversion.
This is regarding a error message by Video Studio Pro X5 understanding a fault message which I got after creating a DVD map. This is the original message in Dutch: "Sommige startframenummers van hoofdstukken zijn groter dan het aantal frames". 533:-2147216477:0 Translation: "Some start frame numbers of chapters are greater than the number of frames"
This was also discussed here - but I can not understand the solution: viewtopic.php?t=24055&p=120629
The situation: I have all the same video files (H.264, 24 bits, 25.000 f/s) [worked with this kind of files a couple times and worked alway very well] I have added some tekst and pictures. Total length of video is 01:50 hour. Starting the procedure DVD creating, with burning the DVD folders on my harddisc. Afther the burning proces I got the fault message.
After creating the DVD map I got the fault message (as describbed above) and found on my harddisc the VIDEO_TS folder with 5 files VTS_01_1 till VTS_01_5. The total time of these loose files is ca. 76 minutes. So I missed a hughe chunk. I got the same fault message when I have created chapters within the videofile but also when I created chapters later at the video menu.
When I do not burning a DVD folder but select creating a video file (DVD-video) than I get separated end files instead of just one big file. Maybe this has the same cause?
on the overview download page on VS pro x3, i see there are a few title packages (and fonts + and styles) i can download , but when I click "now download" it goes back to the normal screen where i can edit videos. other title and fonts i can use after downloading some dont. maybe there in some sort of cache or so because i think to remember that i used to download it once but tried to install a few at the same time and this don't function. and the next start of VS pro x3 a screen pops up with some things(i think the titles) and i don't know what i have clicked.
as there any way to use this title package/font package/style package?

In Hawaiian, I need to use a glottal stop (upside down, mirror image apostrophe) and a standard macron over an "I" (hard to find in any language) to be correct. I don't think I'll find an Hawaiian keyboard. Changing languages doesn't work either because the restriction is; availability of keyboard characters.
I've used VS11+ for making DVD's quite a long time. However, I've just made a DVD with a menu and it gets stuck between titles. This is weird because I've used the titles in other productions without fail. Where do I start to fix this? Shift them around? Delete them then re-add?

Yesterday I had all of my titles available to me in X3, and was making a new video with them. After unsuccessfully attempting to open an X2 file (for some reason NONE of my X2 files will open in X3, VERY frustrating) for comparison, I opened X2 after closing X3.

View 2 Replies View RelatedA small problem, but one I thought it can't hurt to ask about. At least on my DVD/Blu Ray player, when a DVD is stopped while playing, the tv monitor's screen reverts to a home page that lists the name(s) of the movies on the inserted DVD. So if the DVD is Star Wars, the screen will display something like "Star Wars: the Movie" and "Star Wars: Additional Content," which represents the two titles the player recognizes from the inserted disk. (Note that this is not the DVD menu, but something the player is reading from the disk prior to launching DVD.) When the inserted DVD has been created by Video Studio Pro X6 and is then stopped, if there are, say, two film clips on the DVD, the screen displays Just the words "Title 1" and "Title 2".
My first question, then, is whether VS Pro X6 allows me to give the clips actual titles, say "The Zoo," and "The Park," so that these titles, rather than the generic "Title 1" and "Title 2" will display when the DVD is stopped.
My second question is whether VS Pro X6 allows me to issue instructions so that when "The Zoo" or "The Park" (or for that matter "Title One" or "Title 2") is selected from the player, that the DVD's menu will come up rather than the selected clip. (This question is even less important than the first, but while I'm on the topic, thought I'd ask; I have adjusted the settings so that a finished clip is followed by the DVD menu, but I'd like to be able to launch the menu from the player without removing and replacing the disk or starting a clip and then interrupting it by selecting Menu.)
I'm running VS11+ with all three patches/updates. I just made a beautiful Bluray HDV project with m2t files. However, I've noticed when making a DVD with SD clips, VS plays the first title, it skips the second title and goes to halfway in to the third as if nothing was wrong. The preview shows and plays the clips properly. It's only when making the final folders/image that it goofs. It doesn't matter what mpg I put into the second slot. It's always skipped. I've removed the second clip and saved then re-imported. It's always the same. I didn't see anything on a search about skipping titles. I'm fairly amazed it didn't work with SD. I've even popped them in 2 other authoring programs and they all work fine....just not VS11+.
