why wont music studio 2 let me record?
Hi, As Procyon suggests, your post is very vague. What is it you are trying to do, and how are you trying to do it. Also what are your system specs.? Saying "I just bought music studio 2 and it wont let me record for some reason." Tells us almost nothing. What are you tryin to record, how are you tryin to record it...all of that will help you get a reasonable answer instead of wild ass guesses about what could be the problem. George

Audio Lab 16 appears unable to read from Video DVDs
Hi, Is the DVD you are trying to get sound tracks from a commercial DVD? If so, you probably won't be able to access the audio tracks due to copy protection. If you are trying to extract audio files from a personal or non commercial DVD, I would be happy to explain how to do this. George

Hosting with an external domain
Hi, To add to John's comment, are you trying to foreward your domain to another one, or just trying to link your domain to a different one. Forewarding a domain is a function of your hosting provider (I do not beleive that the Magix "free" accounts allow this (not sure about the paid hosting accounts as I do not use them). Within the Xara product, you can link a page or a click box to another domain with no problem whatsoever. George

Capture of still picture from a video
Hi, John is absolutely right, photo editing software is not really designed to handle video. Most of the common applications that are out there handle pretty much still images exclusively. Having said that and having used pretty much every photo editing software on the market (at least all of the really good ones) I can tell you that for basic photo editing, Photo Designer is very very good. I use it for simple quick edits and I use Xara Designer Pro for more complex edits. I have and rarely use Photoshop because I don't like the complexity of the product or the work flow. By the way, what video editing software are you using. Most, including Movie Edit Pro allow you to capture still images from video so something you already have may be capable of doing what you want.

Software problem
Hi, So I am having a little trouble understanding your question. I understand that you are running a Dell Optiplex 755 and use a Maginon SZ 24 camera. You say "After using the software associated with the Maginon SZ 24 in test mode I received a message informing that an error had occured and accessing the programme again could corrupt my computer. I uninstalled the software." Where did you get the software from, since you said "associated with" I think you mean that it came with the camera, but your comment about "test mode" makes me think that you have a trial of the software at this time. Could you please add a little more to your question. I don't beleive that this has anything to do with your camera. Do you know if the error you get is a Windows error? (a screen shot of the error message would be a great help) also what Antivirus are you using. Antivirus applications especially the free or really inexpensive ones sometimes put up these types of messages when a process starts to run and the process charecteristics resemble those of a virus. I have been using Photo Manager for a number of years, am running windows 7, I currently use Bitdefender but have also used Kaspersky and have never seen this message. George

Can anyone tell if Video Saver 4.0 will ever work on Windows 8
Hi, If you have Magix Rescue Your Video Tapes 6 Version 4 it should be windows 8 compatible. If you have Rescue Your Video Tapes 4 it is not even on the windows 8 list. See this link http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/compatibility/CompatCenter/ProductViewerWithDefaultFilters?TempOsid=Windows%208.1&Locale=en-us&Architecture=X64&TextSearch=magix%2Brescue%2Byour%2Bvideotapes&Type=Both&CurrentPage=0&TotalPages=1&ShowCriteria=0&SortCriteria=Relevance&Compatibility=Unknown&LastRequested=14 Realistically, if the product that you have is not currently Windows 8 compatible, I seriously doubt that it will become so at a future date. Remember that we are not Magix technical support, we are a user forum, so if you want more information on this, you need to contact Magix support. George

Magix Uninstall SUCKS, They need TO ISSUE a Product that can be UNINSTALLED & INSTALLED.
Hi, Just wanted to let you know that while I do understand your frustration, no one here works for Magix, we are all just users helping other users. You have not provided any even basic information about your system in your post, yet you are basically demanding answers to questions that require a lot more information than what you provided. For example, how did you "uninstall" the product? Did you use the Windows uninstall utility or did you use something that actually removes the registry entries? You say you coppied over the existing files but what makes you think that the files you copied actually contained any new or different registry entries. If the file names are the same and you were using one of the Windows apps to do this, what makes you think that the entries were changed at all? This is why wen you "uninstall a product" you do a full uninstall which removes all previous entries and when you "re-install" you install the product in a "clean" environment. Copying and pasting new files overe existing ones does not actually buy you much of anything. The "brute force" method only works if you have cleaned out the existing files and are using the right tools. So how about you actually do it properly. Give us your system information and some more specifics on how you did what you did and loose the "attitude" and just ask for help? What OS are you using, what version of Music Maker are you talking about, how much RAM do you have, how much free disc do you have, when is the last time you defragmentted you hard drive and on and on and on...

Mute option causes video to go blank..
Hi, To add to Scenestealer's comments, the last two versions of MEP for whatever reason set the default program setting to have the audio track "grouped" with the video track. I personally think that was a mistake on the part of Magix as it leads to this exact problem. As Scenestealer said, once you detach the audio from the video, you will be able to mute the audio only and not get a black screen. George

Regions
Hi, As far as Movie Edit Pro is concerned, you really don't need to think in terms of region codes at all. Region codes really only apply to commercial DVDs. What you need to be concerned with is which video standard does the DVD player that you want to use support. So basically it is NTSC or PAL. For example, Europe and Japan are both considered to be Region 2, Europe uses pretty much the PAL standard and Japan uses the NTSC standard yet both are Region 2. If you burn a DVD using the NTSC standard it will not likely play on a DVD player in Europe (unless it is a multi standard player). If you burn a PAL DVD, it will likely not play in Japan or the U.S. (which is actually Region 1) for the same reason. So regions are really meaningless for the purpose of this discussion unless you are creating a commercial DVD and only want certain copies to be able to play in specific geographic regions. Just know which video standard your player uses and make sure your program and project settings are set up to handle the right video format. I hope this helps, George ps. SECAM is a third video format which is pretty much obsolete but pretty similar to PAL so if you say live in France where SECAM was once popular and have a older player, I would try PAL.

Video clip (avi) sound makes cliping sound when imported into Magix Edit Pro 16
Hi, The best way to get the original file to me would be to send it via a service called "We Transfer". You can get the free version which allows you to transfer files up to 2 GB. They also have a "plus" version that allows larger files, but you pay for it and I don't use it because I really don't need to transfer larger files. You need to sign up by going here https://www.wetransfer.com/ I have used this service many times and have never had any problems with it. I will send you a private message with my email so that you can send me a copy of the original file, I will bring it into Movie Edit Pro to see if I have the same problem as you and let you know. I will be going away for the weekend tomorrow (Saturday) morning so I may not be able to do anything until next week. George

Video clip (avi) sound makes cliping sound when imported into Magix Edit Pro 16
Hi, I cannot get rid of this distortion with any of the tools that I have (from the youtube video). Was this a file you exported from Movie Edit Pro? If yes, how does the audio sound when you play back the camera master either through the camera, or with windows media player or some other player? Another question, did you convert the file from the original camera format to a different format? Finally what make and model of camara did you use to record this and was the audio recorded with the camera microphone, an external michrophone or did you use a line out connection through the audio mixing board?

Video clip (avi) sound makes cliping sound when imported into Magix Edit Pro 16
Hi, This is not clipping, it is some form of distortion (I have no idea what it could be given the recording environment). I have been recording live music (both audio and video for over 40 years) and have never heard this type of distortion. I am going to try to work with the youtube video to see how I can get rid of it. If I am successful, I may need to ask you to send me a file with the original material so that I can fix a higher resolution version of this recording and send it back to you. I will let you know how it works out and how to send the file to me. George

Video clip (avi) sound makes cliping sound when imported into Magix Edit Pro 16
Hi, Clipping occurs for one of two reasons. First is that the audio source was recorded at too high a level. The second is because the audio volume on the playback track was set too high. Try adjusting the audio playback level usining either the audio level on the track or by opening the mixer and adjusting the level of the track that is clipping. George

Licenses...
My suggestion would be to download a copy of the license you purchased and get a copyright lawyer to advise you on how to proceed based on the country that you live in. Depending on where you live, the legal advice could be tax deductible on income produced from your work. George

How can I blend 2 songs together?
That easiest way would be to just put each song on seperate tracks, and move the second one to adjust the gap. Then just export the project as mp3, WAV or any audio format you wish. George

Why does MAGIX say I have registered WebDesigner MX ver. 8 when I have never done so?
Hi, A couple of questions. Did you buy the product directly from magix or did you buy it on line from a third party? If you bought direct from Magix or Xara, log in to your account to see if the product is listed under "my products". If the product does not show up in your account, or even if it does and the serial number is the same as the one you have been entering and the product will not work, you need to contact Magix sales and have your invoice ready (I would call rather than email) if it is a recent purchase. Use this link for the telephone numbers and contact info for Magix sales for the U.K. or the U.S. George

How can I create a a popup (to another site) on my homepage using Website maker MX??
Hi Janice, Web site maker is a pretty basic application, and I can't be sure that it provides that type of funtionality. Instead of a pop up, why not just use a dedicated "click here" image with a descrition of where that click will take the viewer. Pop ups are so annoying and most, myself included usually close them and don't even think about clicking them. Just put a image on your home page and those who want to click, will and those who don't will not be annoyed by pop ups. George

Plug-Ins?
Hi Anirban, If you are looking for free plug ins, many of the virtual dub plug ins work. Also some of the Pixelan plug ins work but they are not free. As far as I know, many of the NewBlueFX plug ins also work such as the video essentials series. I don't think that the Newblue stabilizer is compatible. Many of the Mercalli plug ins also work.

How can I shorten the transition time between slides? I have to put 300 slides into a 20 minute DVD. Thanks.
Hi, Another thought, if your audience is high school students, then, I would cut down the photo length to 1 or 2 seconds. Fast cuts (jump cuts) will register in that time frame, the point will be made and then you move on. Don't use fades or transitions (they consume too much time), just cut, cut, cut. These students will get it, because they are used to it. Not sure if you are a teacher or a active parent, but if you want to keep the attention of a under 20 year old audiene, use fast jump cuts. They will get it!! George

Hi, I missed one part of your question. Yes, you can just add the video part and not the "chatting" on the drive. When you drag the video into the timeline the way I suggested, you need to make sure that the video is not grouped with the audio. I actually don't know if "digital photo maker" will allow you to do this, but movie edit pro certainly will. If it is only this one clip, send me a private message on this site with your email, I will reply, and you can send me the file, and I will split the audio and video tracks for you and send them back to you. George ps, I am not even sure why I am offering to do this other than I like the project that you are working on, and want to encourage you to keep going in your creative endeavors. I actually do this for a living, but sometimes when a post reasonates with me, I offer some of my services for free.

Hi, I actually like the concept that you are going for. It kind of reminds me of some videos that I have done in the past. If you already have the .mp3 files, just drag it or them into the timeline and position them where you want them to be. Do the same with the video clip. It you want to bring in the entire video clip at one specific spot in your production, bring it in in the "scene" mode, and it will be a lot easier than having to move things around. Put the audio tracks in last after you have placed the video scene. Make sure that you mix down your audio file, add EQ and maybe even master it with the other audio just to make sure it sounds great instead of just good. I know that timing on these types of projects make it hard to get everything perfect, but the more work you put in, the better your production will be. George

No problem, I am usually better at describing how to do it. Ok, so select all of the photos you want to shorten, then right click on your mouse. A dialogue box will come up, the third one down should say "change photo length" click on it and you can either use the slider to adjust the length of those photos, or type in a number in terms of seconds and fractions of a second. Then you can choose to click on "apply to all" in case you may not have selected all the photos, or "apply to selected". I am not sure why 7 seconds is the default, I rarely have a photo on screen for more than 2 or 3 seconds unless I am doing a lot of pan and/or zoom on that particular photo or if I have built a photo collage. I hope this helps, if not come back and I will put up a quick Youtube video showing exactly how I do it. George
