Video Deluxe Premium 2027

I purchased the Premium version and also the Neat plugin in order to process family movies (Std 8mm 16fps and Super 8mm 18fps scanned by am Kodak Reels digitiser to mp4/h.264 at 1600x1200 and native frame rate).
The package works well but I'm disappointed that I'm unable to save the results directly to mp4 within Magix.
To achieve the desired result, I must first export to AVI (which allows the correct fps) and then convert the AVI to MP4 externally (using ffmpeg).
I wish that Magix Video Deluxe would allow me to do this directly to MP4 with 16 or 18fps. It currently only accepts 24,25,etc fps. Surely it would be a minor change to allow these film native frame rates.

Welcome to the Magix user to user forums.

Since there are no Magix staff who regularly visit or post here I fear your comment is unlikely to be seen by anyone who can effect any change in the software, sorry.

However, I do agree it is somewhat "silly" that it is possible to type a different frame rate into the Export screen, but this is immediately ignored and the setting reverts to whatever figure was previously in that box!

I know @browj2 does/has done quite a lot of transfers from 8mm film to digital so I've tagged him in this post so that he sees it and may be able to offer suggestions to you.

If you wish to make a request to Magix that they consider this feature for a future release you should send an email to infoservice@magix.net detailing what you would like to see added to the sfotware.

John, does VPX export at frame rates below 20 eg 16, 18?

Hi Al,

does VPX export at frame rates below 20 eg 16, 18?

On my initial, very quick check, no. VPX18 behaves exactly as VdL 2027 does, at least with mp4 exports. (Haven't checked any other output formats.)
