When my project is rendered... and put on a DVD, is it possible to later change its narration to another language? I ask since I notice that, once rendered, the music, video and narration tracks become one. Is there a way of later separating them, say for changing the language of narration for viewing in another country?
View 14 RepliesIs there a way to record a narration without recording video?
Or do I have to cheat the system and record both audio/video to then remove the video track?
I will be importing a bunch of video clips without audio in X4 and also importing MP3 files. For a majority of the clips I will be recording a Narration Audio and the goal is to synch the audio with what is happening in the videos and as such I need functioanlity where I can pause/freeze the video while narraating. I have been unable to find this feature in X4.
I am also open to importing the video clips and audio clips into X4 and then making them synch somehow, but I may still need to pause the video at some stage to make the audio synch.
I'm using Ulead VS 11. When I make a clip and render it as new video, the new video is repeating frames all over the place. As it renders I can see it happening. It's like the video renders minute/second 1:01, then jumps back to 1:00, then re-renders 1:01. All over the place. These repeat frames are not in the original video.
The format of the original video is MPEG2, 8000 bps, and is being converted to WMV (don't ask!). I have found that the only way to retain any semblance of quality in the new video is to change it to WMV, and for my purposes, this is adequate. I have tried about 10 of the different output formats offered in the "Create Video" option, including saving with settings the same as project settings, and the result is the same, with the exception that the WMV 720 is the only one where a decent quality is maintained. That's a whole other question -- why rendering with "same as project settings" gives me total junk.
Is there some other setting that could be causing these frame repeats? I don't believe I had these problems when the original video was WMV rendering to WMV. But MPEG2 to MPEG2 is not fixing it either, so there must be something else.
I have noticed this in a couple of videos I've done now, I put together some aerial footage I have done, and after I render it there is a low click-thump sound, almost like a slow heart beat. This is not in an added audio track, and it does not do this in the preview.
I am uploading a clip to youtube as I write this, (will update when done) where I left the native audio in place the whole time (rather than add a music track) so it can be heard.
The raw files are MP4 files from a GoPro HD Hero camera.
ps. in this video, you can hear the sound I am talking about, but only until I fade it out and start the music track
I just bought Video Studio Pro x4
Now I am trying to render a clip which is mpeg 2 format to wmv, it does that no problem, but on the play back it seems to sutter a lot,
no i need to decrease the frame rate or what?
Is it normal for video to be sharper during the CIRCLE transition and then return to the 'normal' sharpness at completion of the transition.
I have just rendered a project which contains quite a few transitions including Crossfade, Side, Spin, Face and Circle. Every time I have used the Circle transition the image 'inside' the 'circle' appears sharper until the 'circle' fills the screen (i.e. the end of the transition) when the image appears 'normal'.
I think that there is something wrong with CIRCLE transition as I have also noticed that it does not display correctly (preview window goes black) when you 'drag' the scrubber along the timeline.
I just rendered a video slide show that liberally uses pan and scan zooming for every photo and it looks like garbage. It's jumpy and jerky with almost every pan and scan. I used the highest mpeg conversion quality but didn't mess with much else. Is there something I can do to make it not do that? It seems like it gives you the option to use a different mpeg rendering engine if you want...
What a drag. It took me 2 weeks to put this thing together and the final version looks like crap.
I’m using VS Fx4 and I am having a problem I have not experienced before. The audio in my Music Track has an annoying “pop” occurring. The pop does not occur when viewing the project (.VSP), only after it has been shared/rendered.
At first I thought that perhaps the poor quality was due to running other processes while the video rendered or something to do with the video format being used, however rendering the videos after hours and switching video formats (.wmv & .mpeg4) have not worked. You can view one of the videos I’m having an issue with here: [URL] ... The audio pop is noticeable in the first few seconds of the video.
I have two video files that are currently having this problem, both have Music Tracks.
I have a number of video files captured at 1080X720 full frame resolution at 29.97 frames/second, shown on my PC as .MOV files.
When watching the original files either on my PC or TV, movement is fluid and smooth.
When watching a finished video created via VideoStudio Pro X4 using the aforementioned files, movement is jerky, and is particularly noticeable when watching a panned scene. The effect is so bad that it makes viewing on a large screen impossible as the picture movement jerks/judders about. I have looked at the project preferences, and notice under Project Option>General tab, the only available frame sizes are the standard ones which only go up to 720X576. The radio button to select a user defined frame size is greyed out and cannot be selected to input my own frame sizes. I’m therefore unable to actually input the frame size of the source video files.
Basically how do I render a finished video without jerky movement?
I have always rendered my projects to DVD (mpeg) video files and then used those to 'create disk' (ie create movie).
I also thought that to prevent 'create' disk' from rendering again that all the attributes (constant or variable, kbs, audio compression) used during rendering must be the same as when creating disk.
Is there any benefit from creating a movie (for burning) using either method? Is it faster overall 'creating disk' using project files than rendering first? The reason I ask is that today it seemed to take 'forever' to 'create disk' using pre-rendered files.
I realise that you always see the warning that 'this action will take some time to render' but I thought that if all the attributes were the same that no rendering was done.
Any shortcut to record narration. It seems very long winded to click the record button, select voice over, record and then do it all again every few seconds.
View 2 Replies View RelatedVSX4 had a seizure and stopped working. When I contacted a Corel technician he said to uninstall a reinstall the program, which I did and it is working again, but I find all the narration on the first half of the project has disappeared. You can see where it was, but there is nothing there. Why only half the narration disappeared and not the whole lot has got me beat. Is it possible that the missing narration clips are somewhere on the computer and can be retrieved, or are they lost and gone into the great blue yonder and I will have to lay them again?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a video clip in 4:3 format that I want to insert in a video project in 16:9 (project properties set at 16:9). How could I do that?
I know that there will be black bands above and below the converted project. However, when I inserted the 4:3 video clip in the 16:9 project, it stays in 4:3.
I'm new to Corel. I have done some video editing. I have used Premiere in the past. I am importing dv video and the size captured is 740 x 480 from my Sony DV camera. It is an older camera. First Digital Hi-8. When I produce a video and play it in a player on the pc it is displayed in whatever size I want, including full screen. When I burn a dvd it only plays in a small window, I'm assuming 740 x 480. Is there a way to produce a video that will take up the entire tv screen. I'm only concerned with 4:3 ration, not widescreen at this time.
View 8 Replies View RelatedFirst, I have lots of files with different properties ( SD and HD files) and all files have different properties. My goal is to edit each individual file, save as individual project file (VSP) and create individual final video file, however with an option. The option is to change any property of that individual video file.
Since creating template would not work with all different video properties, how else should I create a final video file to be able to change only the video bit rate (VBR)?
After editing a file, in when I select “SHARE/CREATE VIDEO FILE/SAME AS FIRST VIDEO CLIP”, the “OPTIONS” does not give me the option to change any individual property. That is, the video files that have too high VBR, I would like to reduce their individual VBR only and leave the rest of the other properties alone.
Any good video codec to combine a rendered image sequence into a lossless video clip to use in video editing applications. I have tried using the Quicktime Animation codec, but it always drops a frame, for example, a 0-90 frame animation gets combined into a 89 frame video clip. This causes problems when trying to fade clips into one another, as the animations will not line up.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have created and burnt a video and find that after burning it plays fine on a computer but not on television. Opening the video in Pro X3 and checking the Properties I find that it is in NTSC profile. Obviously not a lot of use in the UK. The television tells me that the DVD is an incorrect DVD, which I would expect if it's burnt for viewing on a computer or in NTSC format.
How can I change this to PAL DVD? When saved it is saved in Corel VS, which I would expect. When I go into the Library to obtain the video there appears nowhere where I can change it to PAL.
I'm trying to do my first timelapse video and am having problems rendering the video.I have Photoshop CS4 extended. When I try to find Window -> Workspace -> Motion I can't see 'motion'.
Then when I try to File->Export->Render Video I get the error message 'The procedure entry point CFWriteStreamGetTypeID could not be located in the dynamic link library CoreFoundation.dll After pressing 'ok' a few times I also get error message 'Theprocedure entry point CFPreferencesGetAPPBooleanValue could not be located in the dynamic link library CoreFoundation.dll

I'm using a new iMac and Pegasus R6. If I put 1080 ProRes footage on the timeline it plays fine with the unrendered resize on it. Resize is only changing bit depth. The minute I render the clip, it will no longer play without dropping so many frames that it is unusable.
View 3 Replies View Relatedhow to change the default options when creating a video?
I keep forgetting to turn off "smart render" and "non-square pixel rendering" in the options dialog when I convert.
Also it would be nice to be able to turn on Dolby 5.1 by default as well.
I'm a complete amateur and did some stupid things. Like shoot everything on my iPhone at 120fp.
Everything imported fine and played great in the the Source and Program monitors, and I could drag any of the clips into the Timeline and they would all play fine, all at normal speed (30fps).
When I fully render them, however, they play in the Timeline at 120fps, and the audio stays the same. In the montors they still play at 30, though. When they're just rendered for playback ("yellow"), it's fine. I would leave them unrendered, excpet sometimes they get rendered automatically, and I can never get back to regular playback speed for those clips.
But even better, when I export, all is well, and is at 30fps.
So, is there some way to make them play at 30fps, even when fully rendered, in the Timeline? Or even if there's just a way to convert them. (I'm likening the framerate thing to audio sampling rate. And made similar mistakes back in the day!) I looked at the "Interpret" option, but must not have fully understood it, since the results were disastrous.
Anyhow, that's about it. I'm not sure if it's germaine, but I did also bring in some 30fps stock footage. Just did a straight import. Same thing happened.
In Pro Tools, you can change the sampling rate of a "Session", is there a similar setting that I'm missing?
I am using Lightroom 5 also to color grade some of my short videos as it seems to be pretty handy. Unfortunately, for some videos the export fails with the error that the hard drive does not contain rendered images. The screenshot below shows the error message in German.
As I was using the same options for many other videos before, I was wondering what causes this error. The hard drive where I have the lightroom catelog is an external USB3 hdd with lots of space left.
Brand spankin' new user to X4. I'm working on a fairly simple slideshow that starts with a 15 second MOV file, followed by 10 pictures at 3 second intervals along with some background music. The issue I'm having is that when I go to generate a WMV file (or any format), X4 renders multiple times and spits out multiple files.
I'm sure there's a setting somewhere that I haven't set properly...
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.
View 1 Replies View Relatedbasically my 24fps footage isn't rendering smoothly ON X5 Ultimate.
[URL]
What i've done is put the same clip together twice, as strangely the first clip is smooth, then subsequent clips are all jerky. This has been going on for some time, so switched to 25fps. 25fps from my Canon 5D MKII wasn't as good as 24fps, so switched back and decided to try and sort this out.
I have been through multiple settings, deleted all older versions of Corel, removed then re-installed X5, made sure all patches and updates were installed - made no difference.
Using X5, I've been assembling video clips taken on holidays into small, specific topic mini-movies (say about 2-3 mins long each) for friends and family, and I've noticed an odd effect of rendering using the MPEG optimiser option when creating a video file from a set of project parts.
All the source clips have a 16.9 aspect ratio. The project file has full, trimmed, and cut clips, plus text, voice over and music.
Put together in a project file, the various clips fill the small or large display windows, as one would expect. Trimmed and cut clips made not difference to the display when playing. But the rendered result of that project file shows irregular "jumping" of the image aspect ratio: sometimes, it's the full display window, at other times it looks like the image is full width but there are black bars top and bottom, and still other times the reverse - bars on the side with a full vertical image.
Those latter characteristics are symptomatic of a 4:3 image converted to 16:9, and I promptly checked to make sure the sources were all 16:9, and they were. The jumping seems to happen within rendered clips and when a clip transitions from one to the next, but not every time. When it happens within a clip, the display 'flickers" as the aspect ratio changes and its that flicker that originally drew my attention to what seemed to be happening.
I am having trouble with the clarity of some photos being used in a project. The project has a mixture of both photos and video. The photos are inserted into the overlay tracks in the time line and some have a mask applied to them.
Some photos both with and without mask's appear pixelated both on the time line and when rendered.The file format for the photos are Jpeg and range from 1.85MB to 60MB in size and have no pixelation. In preferences i have in the image section both "anti-flickering" and "Cache image" checked. I have also tried the photos in the first time line and still are not clear.
I bought the new Olympus TG-1 camera, and want to edit movies that I shoot so I downloaded trial of latest Video Studio Pro X5 to try it out. But I'm not satisfied with the quality of the rendered file. The result is not smooth. For example, I shot a short movie clip out of the window of a slow moving train. When I play the original file everything is nice and smooth, but when I import the file to Video Studio and render it (without doing anything to it, no effects or anything) the result is a stuttering movie - kind of like some frames are missing, or maybe duplicated... (Sound is just as it should, no problem there.)
Source file is .MOV (quick time) 24bits 1920x1080, 29.970 frames/sec according to file properties in Video Studio. Using GSpot i get the following: codec avc1, name H.264, 19641 kbps, 29.971 frames/sec
I've tried every format under "create video file" in Video Studio but the result is the same every time no matter what I do, although the option "Same as first video clip" is not available (it's dimmed when using clip shot with this camera). My system is PAL and I know that 29.97 fps is not PAL standard, but I also tried rendering custom format where the result was a 720x576 clip with 29.971fps (but kpbs is only 1024) but still the same stuttering movie.
I have Canon 60d original footage shot at 1080p 25. The clip is only 9-1/2 sec long. When I play the clip straight out of my pc folder inside VLC the clip is smooth. The moment I import the clip into VS proX5 timeline and straight away, share / create video file / AVCHD / 1920x1080p preset, VS introduces 4 dreaded stutter problems into the render finished product which is very noticeable and ugly to watch.. I am in PAL land and VS was installed to PAL. I have also tried the WMV hd1080p preset and mpeg-4 and the results where just as disappointing.
