I downloaded the trial for the Movie Edit Pro thinking on upgrading from Movie Studio 15 Platinum. If i import my raw video I get no video only get audio. Importing a MOV file from my canon DSLR and a MTS file from our video camera. Is my video card not up to spec?
@Jim-Clark MOV files often need Quicktime installed on video editors. If you go to program settings or click Y on the keyboard it'll show Magix Quicktime Reader, i don't know if you have to have Quicktime installed separately 🤔
the mov files work fine in my Movie Studio 15
@Jim-Clark Can you export from MEP @ Video as HEVC? import a clip that will load & try export HEVC.
MTS is AVCHD, something to do with MPEG4, to export at HEVC you need to pay a few £ for an MPEG4/HEVC codec? I don't know a lot about this sorry but not having that codec might be... Someone will know tho 👍😁
@Jim-Clark Can you go to the top of the page, click on your icon - My Profile & fill in your Signature with your system specs, Windows version, CPU, GPU & RAM, also which version of Magix you're using, this will then show at the bottom of comments & will help people help you,
MTS & MOV can both be video formats,which has the sound on yours?
yes both formats do have sound thanks for the profile tip I filled it out.
@Jim-Clark So both formats have sound & do both have video content, I don't quite get it, you say 'If i import my raw video I get no video only get audio' , So which won't play?
I can't find any MTS files on my PC,
Can you share a file that doesn't play, , put it in a zipped folder, post it on Google Drive, then share the link here,
video wont play. MTS file is from a Panasonic Video Camera
Hi Jim
. . . . Is my video card not up to spec? . . . .
Yes the Intel HD4600 may be usable, and no the GT 635 is not as it does not support NVENC.
If the videos you are importing are 4K UHD 3840 x 2160 then the graphics card will not be used - Full HD 1920 x 1080 may be OK.
There is a second issue which may be affecting you - if the HD4600 integrated GPU drivers are up to date then the integrated GPU may be disabled - Intel have disabled the use of Direct X 12 on 4th generation procesors see this article and if you have the latest drivers mentioned in it, try reverting back to an older driver.
In Movie Edit Pro ensure that the Import, Processing and Export options in Program settings, Device options tab are all set to the HD 4600.
If the HD4600 is not available check it is enable in the computers BIOS - how you do this will depend on the motherboard make/model.
If the HD4600 cannot be made available, then set the three options above to Microsoft Warp.

I tried the microsoft warp and it does work so definately the video card. Thank you for the help.
Hi
Thanks for the feedback, pleased to hear it is working.

I assume that with a better video card the rendering would improve ?
Hi Jim
. . . . I assume that with a better video card the rendering would improve ? . . . .
A Nvidia card that supports NVENC for decoding and encoding would improve the rendering - the suggested minimum is a NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1050 though a lower specification model mayalso be used eg a GTX 750 or better - the only issue you may have is some of the newer graphics cards may not fit your computers motherboard.
