Fade issue

Runedog wrote on 9/30/2011, 9:53 AM

I am using the trial edition of Movie Edit Pro Plus until my copy arrives (I do wish Magix would offer a express delivery option) and I have added a Fade between two areas of a video. My issue is, on playback, the fade-in and out seems very slow?

I do have a powerful PC which should handle video editing very easily. Is there any way I can optimize this issue?

Thank you for any/all answers.

 Graham,

Have checked the fade's duration to see if it is longer than what you want.  Click on the the yellow AB box on the left side of the object your transitioning to.  Also, if you do not have a video card this can impact playback on the time line.

You might want to export a short piece of your project with the section that's giving you a problem with playback to see how the fade looks.

PS 

Give us the specs on your CPU, video card and the type of file you are  working with.  That will help with trouble shooting.

Hi Graham

You did not mention which version of Windows, and whether it is 32 or 64bit!

Also which format HD video - mp4, AVCHD ?  1080i or 1080p?

Hi John,

Thank you for getting back.

I use 64bit Win 7. The video is 1080p. I have two camcorders and this video was shot on my Bloggie not my Panasonic SD600.

Hope that heps.

Oh, got my boxed version of MEP today :)
