RE: Comments on November 2017 update to VPX, improvements or problems

Just noticed that when I play anything on the timeline, it will play for 3 secs then stop while the play button is still pressed. When I touch the stop button then play again, it will go another 3 secs and so on. Not sure if this is just me or not.

Hi, Make sure that you have updated to the latest patch. What is the patch version number that you are using? See under Help, About. In VPX (15.0.4.176), put the title on track 4 unless you want the overlay stars to pass in front of the titles, and

RE: Overlaying clips that are transparent

Hi VPX appears to no longer automatically apply Alpha when it is present, or the filename indicates it is to have Alpha applied to it. Your client needs to apply either Chromakey Black or Alpha from the Effects tab, Video effects, Chromakey dialog
