RE: Timeline Cursor Question

@me_again Hi Andy, My copy of MMS2024 only has the CPU % usage but no 35/35. In VPX16 it has CPU % usage and 35/35. I wonder if there is a setting that can be turned on/off or is this a feature just available on VPX? The 35/35 is pretty consistent.

RE: Import, Export and archiving with Chroma Subsampling

@me_again Hi Andy Welcome to the 'Dark Side' . . . . I've scanned using Chroma Subsampling YUV 4:4:4 . . . . This sounds like you are scanning to jpg image, ie a lossy compressed format, is this correct? What scanner settings are you using

@me_again Hi Andy . . . . I've just realised that I didn't sort them into "time of taking . . . . He'd renamed the various files which doesn't help . . . . IMHO it is better to restart the project than trying to sort the photeos on the timeline,

RE: no audio for mov files

@me_again Hi Andy. Well I think I know why I can play the file. It's because my my DAWs can play the video and audio so I'm assuming for now the the codec is being shared. I can also use a lot of the DAWs audio plugins in VPX and MEP. Has anyone

RE: Movie Studio 2025 Released

@me_again Hi Andy. Understood. I am finding that decreasing the amount of compression is really speeding up the export times and cutting mine down by a third as well as getting a better resolution, still not perfect but very close. File sizes are

RE: The AV1 codec

@AAProds Hi Al. While your 3060Ti won't do AV1 encoding the Intel UHD 770 of your i7 13700K should. @me_again Hi Andy. I'm not sure but it could be the nvidia card could only be allowing lossless AV1 encoding which would explain the higher bit rate
