jmorrell, No problem here using MEP14. Export displays just as seen in the preview window. How are you introducing your texture? Note that the title with alpha effect added goes between the texture image and the background. See also here

Gorg, I've not got MEP17 to check just how it does it (14Plus >> 2013Premium) but what you want is 'alpha' chroma key. Basics are a stack of three tracks: Background image on higher (lower number) track. Alpha mask -- governs

kevin, What about this... As we said, video has to snap to frame lines (25 or 30 or whatever) but your audio track can be put anywhere. The screen shot above (from VPX2.5) has been zoomed to single frame resolution (hr:min:frame) and shows

Glock228, Adding to George's detailed reply, Music Maker is a basic audio composing and editing program; I don't think it can import video at all. For this function you would need either Magix's Pro grade 'Samplitude' (at a pro price!) if your

jmorrell, Assuming you meant '...take the color and texture from (the picture)...', I think all you need to do is apply the alpha effect to your title, not the picture below it. Alpha effect makes that track control whether you see the track

RE: How To Make Very Fine Audio Adjustments To Sync With Video?
