  RE: Acid Pro not opening m4a and mp4 files
  If it is any use to you, the avi container type seems to work fine in AP8 with a variety of codecs. What is the Avi Container and how do I activate/set this up? I've never heard of that before..Thank you!

  RE: Very choppy playback.
  @Spad There are significant differences in video in the 2 files you have uploaded - AVI is a container file and can have many different codecs internally. Good file - 552 x 836 60 fps h.263 XViD Bad file - 1768 x 992 60 fps h.264 AVC . . . . I could

  Make Acid Pro 8 support more than one video on the video track.
  I read on the Magix facebook page, that Acid Pro 8 is going to be released in the spring of 2018. In the past I did give Acid Pro 7 a try, and I have to say that I was pretty impressed with the features it had to offer. However, the downside of Acid

  Hi Greg, Pleased to see that you are back up and running. You have VPX9 if you have patch .211. Magix dropped the naming/numbering a while back, but that just created more confusion, so I guess that they are using 9 in the adverts. Basically, the
