Im using Windows 8 and Magix Movie Edit Pro 2014. Whilst trying to edit my gopro videos I cant drag and drop the MP4 files on to the time line. A comment pops up saying "In order to use MPEG-4 Basic funtions a one time activation is required". I click Offline then click Order activation code Online. A comment pops up "The activation of MPEG-4 Basic failed. If you are using the program as a guest, please repeat the activation with administrator rights". I am logged in as the administrator? After clicking ok a comment pops up saying. "The file format of (location) cannot be read. Please make sure that the drive is not full or write-protection. If you do not have authorization to write or read from this path please contact the administrator". The weird thing is I have already been able to edit and create a video using my gopro videos. Now trying to make my second video, this has all happend. Any help would be great. Thanks Ali

What happens when life breaks down?

When there is systemic contradiction?
My name symbolized all that was corrupt to society.
His name symbolized all that was pure.

And I was being hailed in the embrace of the man who was pure.

And these inviolable sanctities were preserved in those ten words.

And it is the de-sacralization of all of these that has put us in the mess that we find ourselves.

Isn't it true, alas it is much worse.

A person may end up believing in anything.

You know, if that human acceptance does so much for you and me.

Think of what it is when God himself puts his arms around you and says

"Welcome home".

What love is this?

It is God's love.

And no other love can be defined until that love has properly been understood.

 

 

 

If you can’t make the trip to my studio yourself, don’t worry I now have my brand new Online Mastering Service. Many of my customers are happy to leave me to it, and my wide-ranging experience ensures that you can trust me to make sound judgements on your behalf – no pun intended!

The services on offer include both attended and unattended (online) mastering, vinyl cutting, re-mastering, editing and restoration. For further details please message me here.

A gorgeous room full of lots of lovely equipment isn’t going to cut the mustard unless it’s in the hands of an experienced creative engineer who understands your music and how to get the results you’re looking for.

I personally have been mastering for over 14 years now.
i have remixed and engineered for alice deejay.

Please note home mastering and studio mastering are not the same. This is a misconception. the process is different,and while the sound of the polished track may seem the same to the NAKED EAR so to speak actually sound different to the trained ear.

THE TRACKS I WILL BE UPLOADING WILL BE ONLY "HOME" MASTERING. (fast process). music maker defaults are ok but not polished. 

most people are not concerned about the mastering there more comcerned about the FEEL.

i do not work for free so please do not sent me tracks to be mastered (for free). my time is not cheap.

====================================================================================                                 

there are some rules that are just plain idiotic. What are some examples of this behavior, why do people do it? Is it because (This is my assumption) they are afraid of the unknown? They are afraid of taking risk? Or is something that happens during the "nurturing" phase of life with overprotective parents. Maybe it's even a genetic thing.

 

IF I DO NOT LIKE THE MUSIC I WILL "NOT"  WORK WITH IT.

I ONLY EVER WORK WITH MUSIC I PERSONALLY ENJOY.
THIS WAY MY PROFESSIONAL APPROACH CAN BE MET TO VERY HIGH STANDARDS.

 

 

 

from alan.

peace.!

Hi

Have you had any updates to your computer or run a registry cleaner since you last successfully imported GoPro video ?

Try the following: -

  1. Check that MEP can access the Internet - use Help, Free Download - if this connects correctly then do step 2 otherwise check that your Firewall is not blocking MEP connecting to the Internet.
     
  2. Reset the program to its default settings - File, Setting Reset . . . . then try importing a video file again and activation if requested.
     
  3. Reinstall the software and select the Repair option if offered.

HTH

John

I'm having the same problem and not a gopro file, just from a phone. Sorry I bought this program. Stupid answers. I appears a bug and not our fault.

I had this prob with Windows 10. Solution - right click on the app (windows start menu) choose 'Run as administrator' Hope it works for you as well.
