  RE: TV Screen Size
  @HYEE Welcome to the Magix user to user forums. 4:3 images will not fill a 16:9 screen, there will be black bars at the sides; 4:3 images placed in a 16:9 project will have parts of the photo cropped, unless you zoom out on the image, at which point

  Blu-ray menu chapters not working
  I’m trying to make a blu-ray disc with one 90 minute movie and several chapters with MEP. The disc would have a main menu with a ”play movie” button and a ”go to submenu” button. And the submenu would have buttons for all the chapters of the movie.

  Hi, I am trying to edit my video and add the wide screen preset "Feature Film" but the black bars are too big for what I have shot. Is there a way to edit the dimensions? Or create a widescreen effect myself? Thanks

  For the AVI-heads: MMS2023 Bug - incorrect file ratio on import
  Hello all you AVIers out there. Over many months, ever since MMS 2023 (and possibly 2022, can't remember) came out, I have found that the program doesn't interpret AVIs that don't have ratio information stored in them. These are files from analogue

  RE: Slow rendering Movie Studio 2023
  @ASty The video appears to have a cinematic screen ratio. If you have added that ratio to your clips, that is one effect that is mainly dealt with by the CPU rather than a GPU and does slow down exports. Other effects added can also slow down

  Just watched your tute, John. Well done, as usual, but I do think SPR is used for effects it's not optimised for. While you have done a great job, listening to the explanation made my head spin, because of the complexity of the design. It is a shame

  RE: [Closed] Feedback on Movie Studio 2023
  @MAGIX_Redaktion Analogue AVI handling doesn't work properly. MMS 2023 incorrectly interprets the file aspect ratio, even for it's own MXVs. When an AVI is imported (eg 720x576 capture), it displays incorrectly in the Preview monitor as 5:4 instead
