  [Solved] Cannot install Video Deluxe 2026
  I just purchased and downloaded Video Deluxe 2026, on my Windows 11 laptop. But when I try to run the .exe file, it opens a window briefly, shows 0% progress, and then the window closes. It will not install. Where do I get product support? Thanks!

  RE: ProRes422 question
  @CONRADO-CORTEZ Suggest you find out the exact requirements for the ProRes file. I suspect it is required progressive in which case you will need to export from MS as 29.97 or 59.94 fps progressive.

  RE: Weird issue with using Smart Copy/Smart Render in MEP 2019 Premium
  My understanding is that mp4 files are never compliant with Blu-ray specs. You could try rewrapping your mp4 with Shutter Encoder to a mts file. As for recoding 25p to 50i (which is still 25 fps) it's not the image that needs recoding just the

  @ericlnz Thanks Eric, Vegas "i" is the same as Video Deluxe "i": Progressive segmented frames. We VDL users just have to go via the Bluray burn process to achieve that. Magix probably decided way back that there would be little demand for exporting
