Re: Create Blank/Dead Space at Start of Video?

set your project to 'Time' as opposed to 'Beats. In the timeline, select the required area in seconds by click and drag; right click (in timeline) and select 'Add Selected Time' Perfectly wonderful! I was trying that method but from the video track, not the timeline bar. Thanks very much. If you ar...

Create Blank/Dead Space at Start of Video?

I'm really 'done' with my project for the most part. Thanks to all who have helped me through this first one. When I play it on my PC, I knew the media player controls would stay on the screen for a few seconds so I put in 3 secs of dead space. Well, as it turns out, that's about 2-3 secs too few. S...

Photo Clips not orienting properly in Mix Down

I have a couple photos that during review they are fine but after rendering, they always come out oriented wrong. One 180 deg, the other 90 deg. The originals LOOK fine. I have even purposely flipped them before rendering to try to correct but they still render wrongly. Is maybe the original taken t...

Re: Video - Sound Unlinking from Video

Hi, I've never heard of that happening. The missing clips aren't hidden behind other clips? Greg It's the text clips that have gone missing. But no, there are very few in the project so nothing to hide behind. Oddly enough, a bit ago it seems to have stabilized. I will just be sure I'm making all t...

Re: Video - Sound Unlinking from Video

Hi, I guess you saved before closing ? Absolutely. Now in fact, it appears that I'm losing some of the text linked with clips altogether at some point. Either while working on the project or after saving and reopening... the text clips are just disappearing... :-0 It's killing me having to redo the...

In the last build of MC 9, select video and audio clip, right clic on the audio clip > Link > Link Selected Clips.
Is it working ? For me yes.
Oh yes, I've done that. I have to do that every time I Exit and re-open the project. It's not holding. That is, it's not permanent.

Video - Sound Unlinking from Video

Same project I've been working on. Have imported MP4 video clips with sound. I have cut scenes out and pasted elsewhere in the timeline. Initially the sound comes with it and is linked. AFTER I save and exit the app and come back in, the sound is unlinked. So, if I move the clip right or left of wha...

Re: Video - Overlap of less than 1 sec seems to not work

Good morning, I do a ton of video with Mixcraft (including stills), and you will notice a difference in how Mixcraft behaves when your video RAM allotment gets full and it starts going to disk instead. Sometimes the preview screen will get jumpy, and the previews won't show up in the text overlay b...

Video - Overlap of less than 1 sec seems to not work

I was doing a 4 sec duration on each still photo with a 1 sec overlay. Felt it was going too fast so thought I'd try a faster fade in/out but when I select what I think to be 1/2 sec for the Overlap, there is no overlap... the pics just bump end to end. Thoughts? Also, is there a standard for durati...

Re: A couple more Mixcraft video project questions - crashing

Hi, It's just referencing the original video clip. It's not creating a bunch of duplicates of it. If you crash again, quit Mixcraft and send us your mixcraft-log.txt file. To find the mixcraft-log file, highlight the following line and press Ctrl+C to copy it: %appdata%\Acoustica\Mixcraft\ Press th...

A couple more Mixcraft video project questions - crashing

I posted earlier about splitting videos and learned a lot from you all (Greg+). Since splitting is non-destructive, I would split on two sides of a scene then drag the 'desired scene' small looking clip to where I wanted it. Then, finally understanding that the part(s) left behind AS WELL AS the 'de...

Re: Video - Selecting One Clip to End - Shortcut or method?

Hi, It works for me. What version and build of Mixcraft do you have? Maybe the problem is where you are clicking. Be careful not to click on the header of a clip or on a clip's envelope. Greg I'm running 8.1. OK, maybe I don't know where to click, LOL. Nothing is happening except as mentioned befor...
