I hit Automusic in X5 pro. It came on and now I can't get it to go away. Didn't mean to get it going but there seems to be no way to turn it off and get rid of the trak. Do I have to reedit this whole video starting again. There must be a way, but I just can't seem to find how to turn it off.
I even uninstalled automusic from the computer - no luck. there is a little brown line begins at 3 seconds and runs just over the video track. Is this automusic or something else?
Just upgraded from X4 to X5, and it seems something is wrong. When I click the Auto Music icon, all options are greyed out.
Okay, it's been over six months since I last used VSX4, but I don't remember having to do anything special to use Auto Music.

I have uninstalled/reinstalled several times, and have installed VSX5 SP1.
I have reinstalled this program 3 times arlready and the Auto Music feature still does not work? Every time i make a project and want to add some music off the Auto Music feature the whole program crashes instantly? I keep getting over and over again, Unspecified Error? Everything thing else works in the program except the Auto Music.
I am syncing pictures , effects and video snippets to a song. Why is that when I ever I add a new set of pictures or effect, it moves my music as to make space for it despite using a different layer. Is there a way to lock the music in place as I add more photos and media?
When we capture music from CD's in Pro X3, the last few seconds of the songs get cut off. Or the recording skips, cuts out a few seconds of the song right before the end, and then captures the end of the song. It's an intermittent problem with no rhyme nor reason that we can figure out as to which songs are being affected. But once a song has been captured and the end garbled, that same song will always be garbled no matter how many times we delete the recording and recapture it.
As I am testing more functionalities (and finishing up a video, obviously), I am trying to add a background music. For now, I used one that came with VS. I am reducing the Clip volume to 3 (I think that is 3%) and it is still too loud. If I move it down to 2, it is inaudible. Is there another adjustment somewhere? I really cannot have a background music compete with the narration!
is there a way to separate music from speech and SFX? I want to keep the music out ONLY, so I can re-write it.
I understand 5.1 has 5 channels, so are the speech & SFX separated from the music?
By the way, it's enough to have only ONE channel with ONE type of sound (i.e. music), because then I can extract it and reverse-phase it to (partially) cancel out it's equivalent from the master audio track. It's not perfect but enough.
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?
Am I doing something wrong when setting up the menu and rendering a DVD? Everything sounds perfect/ lines up when I view it in my timeline but after it is burned to a DVD the sound is off by 2-3 seconds. It's only a 15 min video.
I been searching around but other than going to the smart sound website and buying their software I do not know of any other sound software which allows me to create multilayer music for video studio. Additionally it does not appear that their software contains a plugin for Corel videostudio. So what are my options concerning creating custom music for videostudio?
As a newbie hopping to put video with my still images I started out by making a DVD of a video of a boat followed by the same boat after Mercali processing. Video were fine and Mercali worked as it says. How do you get a plain DVD without one of the fancy backgrounds that the program makes you chose to start the DVD which need titles and without horrible music that came from nowhere? I cannot find how to make a video with nothing at the start that goes straight into the video you have made. All I want is how to make a DVD of my videos (I can put the title on top of the video at the start) that you put into a DVD player that self starts or at worst needs you to press play on the remote control.
I must have turn off a switch somewhere, after rendering a project I found the music track is not included. I can hear the music track in edit and preview. But after render the project, the audio attached with the video is ok except no music.
I have VideoStudio X3 Pro and just want to convert all my DV tapes to DVD - no background music, no fancy themes, just conversion with a menu and 15 minute automatic chapter breaks (or scene breaks using the X3 scene detection).
The only way I can test the themes provided in X3 to see if they have background music is to burn a tape to DVD. That just isn't very efficient.
how I can do this, which theme to use, or a way to adjust the theme before it burns?
When you create a shape, a circle in this case, with the shape tool, it automatically anti-aliases. I need it to not be antialiased, because I will be using it in a game and if I mask the background color, but the anti-aliased pixels are in between colors, then they will show up and it will look bad.
I had to reinstall Photoshop, and before I reinstalled it, there was a checkbox when making a shape that you could uncheck to stop anti-aliasing, but for some reason, it's dissapeared on me now. Anyone know how to turn off auto-antialising?
Whenever I try to draw a shape, the shape automatically merges onto the layer below it instead of becoming a "shape" layer. It's quite frustrating because it means that I can't move my shapes around without creating a new layer, and then it gets hard to keep track of the layers. How do I turn off this feature?
I just bought this program and when ever I go to save or export, image automatically trims itself. How do I turn off the auto trimming, so to leave open page space around images like how it shows in the work area?
When I'm drawing in 3D and as I move the mouse across the drawing, the faces of my solids highlight automatically. I need to turn this off as needed but cannot find in my notes how that is done.
When I insert an SD card in my computer (or flash drive), Lightroom automatically launches. How do I turn this off? It is really interfering with my ability to get other work done on the computer since I put my flash drive in 20 times a day. I have Windows 7, and use Lightroom 3.
I am using VS4. Is there a way to equalize audio music tracks? I know that there is a "normalize audio " option just prior to burning but that is for videos only. For whatever reason the last two videos I have made have varying audio volumes on different music.
It is quite obvious you can change the duration for any individual photo display time on the video track. I also see that you can stretch or compress the music track to fit time of the slides. However, this would distort the audio track to some extent. Is it possible to select some or all of the photos and automatically set an average time so the sequence will equal the play time of the audio (ideally one file, multiples, or complete audio track)? Also, Is there an upper limit on the number of photos that can be in the video track (obviously there would be an upper size limit for a given media that would be used)? What are some of the upper limits reported and have rendering issues resulted at some poin?
I am new to VSP X5. I want to edit a music video that I recorded live. The live recording of the music was fine but I need to cut and paste new video clips in certain part of the songs in the video timeline. I split the audio from the video.
I am having a hard time trying to sync the audio because every time I cut the video clip, the video keeps snapping back, making audio out of sync. Also, when adding transitions, video clips automatic shrink. I tried enable ripple, video still snap back. Is there a setting in the preference?
I transferred from 8mm film to video and am now editing them in VideoStudio4. I have a bunch of clips that are now edited in my timeline and I want to merge (combine) them so I can add music with the appropriate length for the three clips combined. Is there a way to merge the three clips into one?
The Issue: adjusting the volume of a DVD menu background music (and only that), How to.
Problem statement: Running X5 pro. Preparing a DVD disk with an introduction and 6 clips, with one main menu. Having chosen the smartscene menu template to use, the items on the menu are adjusted (sometimes the menu item needs a simple name rather than the clip file name, and specifically the name/spelling on the menu item should match whatever is in the clip it relates to), and finally the Edit tab selected to choose a different music track for the menu. The option button here allows a variety of tweaks to the music - the music selection, fade in/out, duration etc, but NOT the volume of the music when played as the menu background.
The previewed end result has significantly (twice the volume at least) louder music that the remaining clips. Disconcerting to a viewer. Now, I know there is a normalise audio button at the final burn stage to (supposedly) even out the sound variations, but I've found an issue with that (separate post on this forum recently. The short term fix is to manually even the sound levels of clips out before burning the DVD with that normalise audio button OFF). That approach does not cover the sound level of the background music for the menu, which by default is rather loud, and with no apparent means of turning the volume of it down without impacting the rest of the disk.
Also noted in preview, there is a speaker symbol permitting volume control, but by experimentation that appears to manage the volume of everything, rather than just the menu.
The question: Is there a way of adjusting the menu music sound level ONLY?
I can compose my own multi track music, but how to I get it into a format that Corel Video Studio could use -- to allow me to use Set Mood to adjust the layers?
In timeline mode I select the beginning of a slide (about halfway through the project), then I import an MP3 file. But, it gets placed at the beginning of my project.
In my movie class with the VS editor, we have discovered that an attractive collection of music files in .mid format (midi) play Ok in windows media player, but are unrecognised by VS.
Wikipedia gives up a lot of data on the .mid (midi) format, including why windows supports it, and its old, predates PC's let alone the internet. The plunging costs of storage and transmission bandwidth have pretty much made it a fossil. So, given that VS cannot read .mid files and it seems unlikely it ever will, is there a translation program around that can read .mid music files and then enable 'save in' formats that are readable by VS like .wav, mp3 et al.
How can i turn off the insane automated palettes docking. When i touch the wrong place, i dont want it to go crazy and rearrage itself into something difficult to use.
