I am using Ulead Video Studio version 11 for a film project. However, I have just finished the trimming and now Ive come to the rearranging of clips which I thought would be the easiest part. With clicking and dragging in the storyboard mode, it seems that I can only move clips from left to right. The exception is the very first clip - that cannot be moved at all. And no matter how many times I try, I cannot move clips from right to left. Crazy.
There are 94 seperate clips in this film and obviously, I don't want to shift every single one of those to the right just to get the correct arrangement of several clips. I've held down the shift key and also the alt key while clicking and dragging but that does nothing. For version 11, is there indeed a way that I can move clips from right to left? What I want to do is dead simple. All of the other NLE programs Ive used allow for hassle free rearrangement of shots, even Windows Movie Maker.
When loading the clips into Videostudio from my JVC GZ-HD6AG camcorder I have problems to get them in right order.
I want them in date and time order but it seems as VS insert the clips sorted on file name of the clips?
When loading the clips from the camcorder via USB I get all clips into the computer as separate files with correct time (date, hour,sec). I try to sort the files before inserting them to VS but with no luck when inserting.
I am using "Insert Media File to Timeline/ Insert Video" as well as "Insert Digital Media".
I have been trying to swap the Library Panel with the Previewer......so that the Previewer is on the Right Top and the Library on the Left Top...and the story line unchnaged. When I drag the Previewer to the Right Top....it will remian where I place it but covers up part of the Library. I just want to swap positions of these 2 panels......without covering up either...can that be done? If yes, than I must be failing to do something because...I have not been sucessful....I can move all the panels around.....but when doing so they always overlapcover other panels.......
Working on a 28:30 project with 8 hours of footage shot over 13 days. I have seperate bins for each day. Some bins are displaying the clips in reverse order while in thumnail view and I cannot change it to be in sequential order. I've tried sorting it in list view first, but that doesn't work. I have the latest version of Premiere CC.
1. When creating a subclip from the source sequence, I then go to edit the name of the new subclip in the Media Library. After doing this, the sequence timeline switches to what looks like a viewer, and won't switch out of that mode until I double-click a sequence in the Media Library. This appears to happen when I create a new folder and drag the subclip into it.
2. Clips in the Medial Library within Folders are in sorted order. Please allow the editor to place clips, folders and sequences in whatever order they want, via drag and drop placement.
3. Shift-/ (play in-out) does not appear to work.
4. Names in the Media Library that are too long only show the end of the name. Standard Mac behavior is to show the beginning, then an ellipsis, and finally the end.
5. When viewing a source "timeline" (which rocks, BTW), please remove the name of the source from the timeline track. It gets in the way of audio waveforms, and in this case, is redundant since there's only the one clip anyway.
All of a sudden my Videostudio X4 will not play any clip for longer then a second or two. When you play a clip or the project it plays for 1 or 2 seconds and stops just like you hit the stop or pause button. Click play again and it does the same thing. Makes it really impossible to edit. It had been working great up until last week. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but still have the same problem. I have excluded my anti virus from scanning the Corel folder.
So I drag and drop a bunch of video files into the timeline and want to mute them all in one easy step. It would seem that all you would need to do it right click and mute while they are still all selected from the import but the mute setting isn't active. meaning I have to mute each clip separately. That takes a LONG time.
Have just started working on VS and discovered a strange issue. I can put a piece of video in the clip window to mark in/out points and it plays fine. When I drag it to the timeline and play as a clip, there is no audio!
I have ONE large 1hr AVI file captured from a DV camcorder. I have used Corel Videostudio to "split by scene", and that works fine, all clips are cpatured. BUT the shooting date for the clips are shown as the same date and time for all clips.
Where can I see the actual shooting date for each clip? I tried to use the old Win Movice maker on a WinXP machine, and here it works fine.
In corel VS I also tried to take one clip in the middle of the file and used the shared function to create an DV AVI file. This file I imported to VideoStudio - and now the date and time for this single clip is right. Unfortunately if I a convert all clips into one single file again I still have the problem.
In the past using VS10+ I noticed an issue importing sound and music clips. I did import them into my project from my music folder without any problems. The issue is when I deleted the sound and music clip from my folder it disappeared from my video project and I would have to get the clip back into my music folder and keep it in there until I burned a DVD. Is this routine for VS?
I am importing some .avi files and burning to a disc. Most of the .avi clips are fine on the DVD, but two that have panning sequences are very jerky. I checked the source .avi files and they pan smoothly.
I've explored changing the Speed to Quality slider and also the Frame Type (Upper/Lower field first) setting to no avail.

Cannot preview .MPG files.VSPro5 won’t play MPG clips.
I have only ever worked with AVI files, MOV files OR Video_TS files with few problems and have recently upgraded from CVSProX4 to X5. A family member has asked me to put all his home movies onto DVD. These are in MPG format.
I can import all the individual clips into CVSProX5 – however, the clips will only play when they are selected as the whole project. Selecting an individual clip for editing purposes results in a green screen. However I can manually move the scrubber through every frame within that clip (with an absence of sound) – but will not play that clip. I have converted some clips to .MOV format and can then play (and edit) and listen to individual clips.
I don’t particulary want to convert many hundreds of individual .MPG clips.
I just created a project with many different clips. Some of them play perfectly while others are jerky in playback. The original videos were imported to Correl from video files downloaded from the internet. Some of them are MPEG and others are AVI. It seems that the MPEG files play fine while the AVI files are slow. Not sure why this is since I created another very similar project and the AVI files in that project played back fine.
How can I rename clips in the library. For example, after I split or multi split a clip, I have multiple files with the same name? I cannot click or rightclick, and then rename the files to keep them separate.
I am running the 30 days trial version of the VS pro X6, but the added clips are muted. important before buying).
When I add a clip the sound is ONLY played when volume for the clip is 100% (other value makes the clip mute) and is the clip preview, not the project preview. (project preview plays only the added soundtrack- if there is any).
Even if volume is 100%, when exporting the project, clip sound is muted (only the added soundtrack will sound).
- Of course I have tested several clips, and with or without an additional mp3 soundtrack. - I also installed the just released VS SP 1, but no changes. - I export (Share) using Vimeo HD template. - Problem is not shown if I use VS 11 (which I also has installed).
My system characteristics are in my profile and also here:
- Win 8 pro 64 bits - Dell Inc. Vostro 3360 - 1.70 gigahertz Intel Core i5-3317U
My question: I prefer to shoot my videos in 720p, to optimally match my TV. I see that in VideoStudio, the only 720p option is by using HDV. Is there any other way to get 1280x720 output? I see that AVCHD and Blu-Ray only offers 1980 and 1440 options, both which resize my videos (which I do not want). I'd like to save back as 1280x720 MP4, but VS's MP4 option doesn't provide this.
(Now that I think about it, why does VideoStudio offer 1440 rather than 1280? I thought 1920x1080 and 1280x720 were the common HD formats.)
Taken video clips with that camera? It uses mpg4 ACE (which is not a codec known to VideoStudio) and my PC tells me that the clips come at 30.05 fps. What can I do now? Why the clips aren't 29.97 fps?
I am a long time Pinnacle Studio user trying out the demo for VS6 Pro. Is there a way to adjust the volume at a point in the project so that the audio to the right follows the volume setting, including all the clips to the right of the edit point? I like to bring down the audio for a good portion of the project then bring it back up etc. It would be very time consuming to have to do this for each clip.
After trimming and clipping videos, I drag the segments that I want keep into the library. All of the clips that I move into the library have the same name as the original. Is there any way of renaming the trimmed clips?
I am having problems downloading clips to my computer. I successfully connect the camera to the USB port and can see it in Windows Explorer. The camera is a Canon Legria HFR 16E. The software that came with the camera(Pixela) does not respond because it can't read the clips (something to do with streaming, I think).
I tried to read in with Video Studio and received the message " Either no video capture driver is installed in this system, or no device is connected". I did successfully download clips earlier in the year but did have this same problem a couple of years ago. This was because the USB Connection Type was not set to "Computer/Printer" I reset this and then the problem was solved. However, this time I have checked the camera and the USB connection type is definitely set to "Computer/Printer" so I cannot think what is causing the problem.
I want to use Video Studio X4 mostly for keeping track of all my video clips. So I want to import a lot of short clips into Video Studio, view them, and rename the ones that I want to keep (with a better name than the one the camera gives), and I want to delete (from my hard drive) the clips that I do not need.
1. How do I delete a clip in Video Studio X4 (not just the thumbnail)?
2. How to I rename a video clip that I am watching?
After using multi trim and the trimmed clips are now back in the sub library, I want to mark where they are so that I can easily locate them.I have tried to drag a colour clip from the timeline but this is not being allowed.
I want to create a clip that uses a few tracks in VS, and then insert that clip in other video projects. What format should I use? I tend to use the Upload>Vimeo settings often (mp4), because Vimeo is a higher quality, but should I change those defaults?
Can I overlap clips without a transition? Here's what I'm trying to do (VS Pro X3) - I have about 30 clips that I'm putting together. All of the clips need trimming at both ends. With Sony Vegas 9, I only had to trim the beginning of each clip because then I could overlap the clips to "trim" the END of each clip (the clip previous to the overlapping clip). It appears to me that with VS Pro X3 I have to trim both ends of each clip and then put them all together end-to-end because when I overlap them, the overlapping clip doesn't actually overlap the previous clip on the timeline, but both clips transition into one another. What I want is for the overlapping clip to truly overlap the previous clip, effectively ending that clip at the point of overlap. If I don't want transitions, must I trim all clips on both ends and put them together with no overlaps?
And BTW I don't use my Sony Vegas 9 (Platinum Pro Pack) any more because the program has a bug that makes mp4 rendering impossible, and other renders very sketchy.
I've been using X5 to edit a project that has about 20 small clips in it. I've noted that (1st occurrence of this) moving from one clip to the next in the main project timeline, the sound in the next clip just vanishes. Selecting the affected clip individually and then playing confirmed its got sound there.
This was first seen after turning ripple editing on (the little padlock went from open to closed). But various measures did not remove the effect:
- turning ripple editing off
- delecting the affected clip - the next clip in turn was affected by this
- closing X5 without saving the project changes, then re-starting X5 and opening that project. At the same point in the timeline, sound went away.
Is there any known explanation for this, and how can I remove this effect?
I just started using videostudio prox5 and Im having a hard time figuring out how to do this. Basically I have dvds of football games for minor league football, how do I go about using prox5 to extract certain parts from the dvd that I have? I tried importing from media from the dvd drive and it imports the video but how do I go about extracting parts of the video and save it to my computer so I can go back and create a highlight video of all the extracted clips?
I have looked everywhere for this but although I mark in mark out, try inverting, try deleting etc. I cannot seem to cut out parts of clips that I don't want to appear. Is there step by step set of instructions I could consult?
What are best practices to perform audio normalization between clips in VideoStudio? Can VideoStudio ProX3 display a visual of wave form from a sound track in order to do audio normalization between clips?
