I am familiar with Camtasia, but working my way in VSX6 now. In Camtasia, I could select a segment and simply cut it (with the scissors icon). In VS, it looks like I have to cut both ends of the segment and then delete it. Is that the correct and only way to do it, or is there a more direct way to cut a segment out?
View 6 RepliesI'm using the Fade to Black transition in X5. The problem is that the fade out cuts off the end of the clip before it fades into the next one.
I want the fade effect but don't want to lose anything of the clips even if it means there will be a longer black screen during the fade. Is this possible and if so how?
Is it possible to nudge a video segment or audio clip in timeline with a short cut key?In FCP7 I used this all the time.

For some reason when I try to move the clip over to align the audio, it snaps past it or before where I actually want it to sit. This includes cutting the clip and trying to move it over. I'v heard wacom mice and tablet pens can have issues cutting a clip at an exact point somtimes, but I'm just on an apple laptop with the track pad.
Is there some sort of item I need to enable to cut a clip on the zoomed in audio time units?
See attached image below of the clip jumped forward from where I want it, and it jumps before it when I try to move it over manually or through shortcuts.
When I select a clip, it then goes to the start of the clip, how can I sop this happening and the clip stays in the same position when selected.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI want to draw triangle in segment of polyline in segment direction.
I have target segment and center point of it:
Polyline line = ...
LineSegment3d centerSegment = line.GetLineSegmentAt(centerSegmentIndex);
Point3d centerPosition = centerSegment.MidPoint;
I can find direction of this segment:
Vector3d zaDirection = line.GetLineSegmentAt(centerSegmentIndex).Direction;
Next, I create list of points:
List<Point3d> points = new List<Point3d>();
points.Add(centerPosition);
points.Add(centerPosition.Add(new Vector3d(ZASize, +ZASize, 0)));
points.Add(centerPosition.Add(new Vector3d(ZASize, -ZASize, 0)));
And draw it:
wd.Geometry.Polygon(new Point3dCollection(points.ToArray()));
Ok, I have triangle but... it's not in segment direction, it's X-direction.
I try to rotate it:
points.Add(centerPosition.Add(new Vector3d(ZASize, +ZASize, 0)).RotateBy(0, zaDirection, centerPosition));
But it's not the same as I want.
How I can draw triangle by serment direction?
I have been producing many (4k+) videos in the last two years for my employer with trial versions of x3 and x5 without issues - as my latest trial on x5 has expired my company has decided to go ahead and purchase x4. You can see examples of what im doing here URL.....
The software is muting the audio attached to my segments upon "sharing" them to MPEG 4 - HD.
I record the video on a Sony HDR-Cx110, these files save as .mts. I drag and drop these files into the editor, top and tail them with my intro/outro video and add in two layers - This is where i think the issue comes in. After i add in the two layers the audio from the main segment goes mute. Clicking on "project" allows for the audio to play with the entire project, however when i "share" the project to mepg4-hd the main segments audio goes mute again and my finished product is ruined.
Sometimes this will happen other times it will not. Also after the conversion process to mpeg4 hd has finished i can play the project in the editor with all audio, however when i play the mp4 it has produced the audio from the main segment it mute..
The Pro X3 help file says I can extract audio from a video file, but doesn't say how. What I would like to do is extract a segment of audio music from an MPEG2 video file using PRO X3 and add it to the Library for use in another PRO X3 project.

I've used Trax to create a number of animation clips for a character in a video game. I can create more complex animations by arranging several of these in the Trax editor and setting blends.
What I would like to know is: can I select several scheduled clips in the Trax editor and turn those into a single clip? Like if I had two walk cycles that blend into a jump, could I select those and create a single walk-then-jump clip which would appear in the visor, and which I could then drag into the Trax editor as a single unit?
The problem is that when I put a 2minute film in AVI format it works great, but I want to put a piece of it, so I use option to cut the film and I'm doing from it let's say 30s clip. The problem now begins, because when I play this clip in "Clip" option tagged I got the sound, when I change it to "Project" the sound vanishes... Using full film the sound is available in "Clip" mode and "Project" mode.

I just downloaded the videostudio X6 trial version. For some reasons, some sequences from mpg clips I added to my project seems to be repeating itself for no reason. The bug occurs within a unique sequence and might change the "restart" position while the timeline cursor.
Ex: Original video = Cow cross the road, a car hit the cow then the car explode and finaly a generic
After importing the original video = Cow cross the road, a car hit the cow then the car explode, then the car hit the cow a second time
If I move the cursor right to left a couple of time, it might end up missing the first part of the clip where the cow is suppose to cross the road (replaced by a second car exploding)
It's a single clip and the final display is changing even if I don'T touch anything. I use to be a Ulead video studio user and I never had such problem.
I've been doing a project using two different cameras, I've done some of it and saved as a .mpg without a problem.Now for some reason I cannot use the split clip tool it is greyed out all the time no mater how I have the clip in the timeline be it set to clip or project.
I made one cut to align two clips now nothing..As I say I've completed three parts of the project without a problem using the split clip tool.
Working with a 1080p/60fps mp4 file from my GoPro 3. Trying to save a trimmed clip using "same as first video clip" option. Everything seems to work fine but the saved clip plays for a second and then the video freezes but the audio continues. This happens playing the clip with WMP and VSx6. The original untrimmed mp4 plays fine.

Is there a way to cut a solid into two pieces using a non-planar cutting plane? I have been tasked with calculating the volume of concrete damage in a chute block. I have a sketch of the damage on the chute block. I created the chute block as a solid and then drew the damaged area extents using plines. This created non-planar plines. Is there a way to get this to work that will allow me to see the volume of the concrete damage? I need an easy way to do this, there are 50 chute blocks all the same size but with varying degrees of damage

I've been using Videostudio Pro X4 for a few days now and I've seem to have run into the problem of losing the audio of clips after I have muli-trimmed them. It doesn't matter where I multi-trim them in the timeline, after I have confirmed the trim I lose the audio for the clip?
Let me be clear: the audio for the clips work perfectly before any editing ie. trimming and they are placed in the main video track. The clip formats are mainly AVI, MP4 and DivX AVI and have varying lengths.

I've been using VS 11.5 Plus for several years with no problem. Recently, I received a new camcorder, a Sony HDR-CX305 which produces .MTS files. I can open the files with VLC and Windows Media Player. For editing in VS, I chose to use proxy files. When I put the files on the timeline and play them in project mode, everything is fine (display & sound). But in clip mode, the clip is played really fast, less than 1 second, which makes difficult the editing.. I tried with smart proxy disabled : same problem.

I unmarked the checkbox named "use first clip as introductory video and added, in the first page of the Share - DVD, the clip that must be played in the motion menu (moved the clip most left).
In the menu itself its now fine when nothing is selected, though when selecting the total video to play, the selected video file of the motion menu starts to play where the first video file (clip) must be played. I know that in the main menu I can select the first clip to play as well but that's exactly what I want to avoid..

View 9 Replies View RelatedI shoot AVCHD video from my Canon Vixia HF S 21 at the highest setting of 24 Mbps / 60i. I have a Lite-On BD Burner and make BD-R discs. Originally when creating the movie that will be burned to disc, I was using the Blue Ray option (MPEG2 25000kbps). I was not happy as I saw much degradation of the image. I know from users on this forum that H.264 is the prefered format, but VS X3 limits you to 20000kbps, which will result in an even more degraded image. (Will this limit be removed in VS x5??)
What I found by accident was in the above project, use the option "Same as first clip". This resulted in an H.264 video, VBR 22700 kbps and the video is very sharp on my 55" LCD TV compared to the MPEG2 compression. So I am quite happy with this setting.
My problem is on my project right now, the Same as first clip option is grayed out. Why is this happening? Could it be that this time I captured as real 24F rather than in 60i format? My only option is MPEG2 for BLuRay, or use MPEG optimizer which still shows Mpeg2 but now VBR is 22700 rather than 25000 kbps. There is no way to get it to render as H.264. BTW I also noticed this the other day when rendering a project from video from my wife's Flip camera.
