How to setup the burning speed for DVD using the Videostudio x4??? My setup menu for adjusting the speed recording wont highlight.. I've try to reinstall the software many times, but i wont get it done.
View 2 RepliesProblems in selecting the DVD recording speed in VideoStudio pro X4? I prefer to use a fairly low rate, but the selection is greyed out in my Create DVD window and it seems to be set permanently on maximum. I've tried a program re-install but it hasn't worked at all.

When I try to combine 2 videos to play over each other (i.e. one full screen one anchored in a corner) the overlay track plays at an accelerated rate with no sound, whereas the main video will play as normal. However if I switch them around the same problem arises, the overlay video plays fine the main accelerated with no sound.
If I play them separately they will both play fine. The video I am trying to anchor was recorded with a webcam and therefore may be the problem. If I need to give more details w/ specs etc.
I'm near completion of a year long video project. I inserted several HD video clips into my VS X4 time line which includes many other HD/SD and .jpg clips along with transitions, music, etc. For effect, I used the tool in VS to speed up two or three of these clips by about 300%. Without the effect, the scene doesn't work so I'd like to keep it this way.
I noticed that when playing the clip in the time line after the effect is added, it plays very jumpy and jerky. Without the effect it plays fine as do all the other clips in my project. I am guessing the effect puts a strain on the system but mostly, my system is fine. However, the hard drive may be the culprit and not able to get the data fast enough to provide a smooth video. Is that possible? My cpu (core 2 quad Q6600 clocked to 3.0 g), new video card, memory, and monitor (HD certified) are all new and well within spec.
My question: Do you think the stuttering video will also be present in the final burn of a Blu-Ray? Or is this just a function of the preview window?
I was just wondering what effects rendering speed the most, the GPU or the CPU?
View 4 Replies View RelatedSince quite some time I have been succesfully uploading FullHD (AVCHD 1920x1080 50i) movies on YT. Some weeks ago I got a strange playback problem with my last uploads: video's are played in (very smooth!) slow motion mode at some resolution settings. The same Divx video's on the contrary always playback OK In order to illustrate the YT playback speed problems I uploaded two times the same 10sec video. The first video has been rendered as a fullHD AVCHD video in VSX4 (never got problems in the past with similar video’s), the second is a fullHD DviX version of that same video (from another converter). The lower resolution settings in the AVCHD video slow down while the 720 and 1080 settings run OK [URL]

I'm trying to get my audio synched up. Someone once told me that the best place for the camera is often the worst place for the microphone. And in my case it's true.
So- I am trying to use audio from a different source and the speeds are very slightly different. I have the beginnings synched perfectly. Toward the end I stomp my foot- it sounds like a door slam and is something I'm trying to use to synch the two because it's a loud sound short in time.
Doing it visually doesn't work because VideoStudio (version 2) doesn't preview the video properly. So I had the idea- don't mute the source audio so I have both playing. Then render an audio-only file and listen to hear how far apart the two stomps sound, and adjust the audio track's speed.
I've shortened it by 2 frames and 10 frames but it still sounds exactly the same. Is there a bug in the audio-shortening feature or am I missing something? I tried using Audacity to shorten the audio but that didn't work well either, because it rounds off, and 2/30th of a second over 30 min is a tiny fraction.
I'm using the TBYB version of X4. I have 39 video clips that were recorded on a new samsung standard def. vid cam. The native files are MP4 files. I transfered them from the SD card to my hard drive simply by dragging them over. They play fine in any version of VS.
I'm doing NOTHING fancy. No moving menus. No music on the menus. Just a main title page and enough menu pages to accommodate the 39 files. No audio normalization.
It NEVER gets to the point where it outputs to the DVD. As soon as it finishes whatever it's doing on file 39....whammo....unspecified error. It also takes 30+ minutes to render the file, never getting to the burning.
I have a 2.8ghz Quadcore CPU running Win7 64 bit Professional.
I tried this same procedure in X2. Burning completed successfully to the SAME blank DVD-RW and took approx 30 mins....so X2 on my system is faster.
Unfortunately, X2 is unusable for me with any video files OTHER than AVI files. Any other video files result in "skipping" audio as I've reported in another thread.
I've restared the project from scratch several times but to no avail. Is pointless to try X3 because it has the same audio problem for me that X2 has. My DirectX runtimes are from Oct. of 2010.
Does VS5 have the DVD burn program within it, not a separate program? I am using Corel DVD Movie Factory and also use ProX3. I prefer using my own template or rather my own jpegs for the background. Movie Factory forces me to use their templates, meaning I can't just have a jpeg in the background, have to use their gallery and I spend frustrating time moving off the template parts or hiding them, unless it's there in Movie Factory and I just didn't know how to not use something from the gallery.

I have a video shot from inside a vehicle driving down a rural French road. I would like to increase the speed to 110% to 115% as the video progresses to match the music I will overlay it with.
I know how to increase the playback speed, but I can't seem to find if it's possible to do it gradually. Everything I try increases the speed all a once. Is this possible (gradually increase speed) with the Playback Speed settings, or do I need to make two clips of the same segment, 1 at regular speed and 1 at the final speed, and use a long transition between them?
I use X5 Pro. I have some projects with lots of video clips. When I load a project, the project itself loads fairly quickly (as indicated with the green progress bar), but the Icons in the Project area then begin loading ONLY for the page being displayed. This applies for both the storyboard and timeline view. This is very frustrating, especially on the storyboard view, because every time I scroll a page I have to wait for the icons to load. With a lot of pages, it takes a very long time to get everything loaded.
Is there a way to either speed up the loading process or have it load in the background so that I can leave the computer and come back later to find the icons all loaded, rather than having to sit there and scroll through one page at a time waiting for each page to load until all pages are loaded?
I have used many different video editing packages and really like videostudio. The high quality output and many features make it a solid product.
However, I am confused why there is no way to change the speed of an audio or video clip in smaller than 1% increments. 1% is a very large increment, even when dealing with a 3 minute clip. An exact sync is near-impossible. .1% would be a great deal better.
I see in the 'change speed' dialog that you can also choose the clip duration, down to 10ths of seconds. But when I do this it seems to 'snap' to the nearest percent.
Is there no way to change the speed in smaller increments than 1% or am I missing something?

View 6 Replies View RelatedWith VS X4 I edited my .mts files into .vsp files. Then successfully created video files (.m2t 1440 x 1080 files) . I selected 1440 x 1080 because it is the setting set on my camcorder.
My question is in the Create disc step:
1. if I burn these .m2t files and select "DVD" would the resolution be back to that of .mpg in the final DVD?
2. If I burn these .m2t files and select "AVCHD" and instead of burning directly onto a disk, placed it on a hard drive folder. Then later could I burn it on a regular DVD disk? If that is the case, is the disk playable on a regular DVD player? Or, do I have to burn it on Blue Ray?
I know I could experiment it but my project has 4 Titles, each of about 30 min duration, that I want to burn. I tried to find the answer on the Forum and also in the Manual but could not find the answer there.
When I get to the step where one edits the main and sub menus, I am only given the option to RETURN. The NEXT button is missing. This problem appeared after I was forced to re-install VSX2 following a computer crash. I am now running it on Windows 7 Home Premium.

How is this possible ?
I have a video recording of an event with not so good audio, but also a separate high quality audio recording. The problem is that the audio recordign speed is not the perfect match to the video recording, and when I put them in overlap, audio runs about 2-3 seconds quicker than the video by the end; seems real bad.
the obvious solution is to adjust the speed of the audio to match the length of the video; sounds easy.
One small problem is that the audio recording and the video recording were not perfectly synced, so the audio has some superfluous part at the end, so all in all the situation is as below:
Video track length: 1:57:16
Audio track length 2:14:20 with a lot of wasted part at the end
Current length of the Desirable Audio track: 1:55:15; this is the part which should in fact finish at 1:57:16 to match the video.
Below is what I did:
1- Clipped the audio at 1:55:15, Let us call the first part of the audio (the desirable one) Audio A, and the remaining part, Audio B
2- Deleted Audio B from the audio track
3- Pressed shift and dragged Audio to match the length of the video hoping that it will speed the audio track perfectly to cover the 2 seconds gap
4- Played the audio clip to see if it worked; Result: weird. Instead of keeping the track contents as it is and only changing the speed, it somehow resurrected some contents from the Audio B. I thought I had deleted that . So now it plays the same length as the video, but with added audio contents at the end, so the problem remains where it was.
5- Pressed undo, to instead try the Speed / time-lapse dialog on Audio A. Right clicked audio A, clicked on Speed / Time-lapse and entered the time for which it should play directly.
6- played the audio clip to see if it worked; Result: same as 4.
7- Pressed undo again, and tried reducing the speed this time instead of entering the exact time manually. Even 99% stretched the video way beyond the length of the video (as I expected) but strangely enough the contents from the deleted Audio B are still appended at the end.
8- This time tried to shrink the stretched audio to the length of the video by using Shift+drag. And it works perfectly for the stretched clip, but that had the audio contents from Audio B anyway. So the result is exactly the same as 4 & 6
.
9- Trying to delete the unwanted audio bits at the end of Audio A from Audio B, and then stretching the Audio A to the right length actually reduces the Audio A further down, deleting some part of the wanted audio too :S ... thus just turning the problem upside down ..
I am using Corel videoStudio X5 Pro with Service pack 1.
I have recorded my bowling action (the English game of cricket, where you throw/bowl the ball the the batsmen). It was recorded side on to my run up. I wanted to measure my speed, so I thought, using 2 consecutive frames from movie maker, giving a time of 0.04 sec. Then using Pixlr(free photoshop), overlap the two frames, and measure the pixel distance the ball has traveled. Then I use the diameter of the ball (known) to measure how much distance each pixel is in real life. Then I calculate speed.
This should be accurate, with the only uncertainty coming from the pixel measurements. The results so far have me questioning if there are other factors I have missed, I got most of readings at 40mph, this is very slow, spinners bowl at this speed, I have been told I am faster, then I have one reading at 75mph. The fast one showed really good technique, so is why is that fast, but the slower ones shouldn't be that slow.
I have recently upgraded to a HiDef video camera and at first was recording at 1080i (interlaced) and now changed to record at 1080p (progressive).
I have noticed when viewing (on my PC) some of the clips I recorded that there are 'jagggies' along the edges of objects.
I have found that this is a result of 'interlace' and possibly panning too fast. My camera displays a warning "camera is panning too fast" if in fact I do pan too fast but this was not the case as when recording with panning I usually pan so slowly that I often have to increase playback speed during editing AND also the clips I viewed were on people walking in the same direct at the camera, hardly panning too fast. With that said I am thinking (and hoping) that it was a result of using 1080i (interlaced).
This begs the question - Can shutter speed have an effect. The reason for the question is that I have noticed that my new camera (seems to) automatically sets the shutter speed faster and leave the aperture wide when there is a lot of light (I can see that by changing to MANUAL mode and noting the aperture and shutter speed.
If this is the case then should try using a NEUTRAL DENSITY filter to force the camera to use a slower shutter speed? I used to have to do this with my old MiniDV camera to prevent overexposure in brightly lit scenes (the shutter speed never seemed to change without me manually doing so).
I don't know why Corel made this program without the ability to change the playback speed in project view. You can only change the speed on each clip. When you have 50 or more clips, this can take all day, when it could take a few seconds if you can do it in project mode.

I am contemplating purchasing a notebook which has a Sata HDD of 5400rpm and Intel Pentium Centrino Duo (dual core 1.83GHz) - the CPU should be fine I think but what about the HDD? I think that when I first started video editing (VS v 6 I think) that I only had a 5400rpm drive and had no problems but just wanted to be sure. Oh yes the notebook does have a firewire port.
I know how to change the playback speed of a video clip in my project, but is there a way to have it smoothly transition? For instance, can I have it go from 1x to 3x over a period of 2 seconds or must I jump directly from 1x to 3x (or manually break the files into dozens of super small chunks and manually increase each one... which will still not look smooth)?
