Size bir sorum var, xara tasarımcısında çizdiğimiz noktalar videonun tamamı için geçerli mi? In English: I have a question for you, do the points we draw in the xara designer apply to the entire video? @john-b98789 Hi, Xara is opened in animation mode. The duration of the object created by Xara will be the duration of the video object that was selected when Xara was opened. Whatever you draw can

Seems I'm 6 years late to the party, but I've got the same issue in MEP 16 Plus (9.0.6.6) as bluewigan. My version simply upon pressing Ctrl-E opens the same window as in bluewigan's screenshot above. The PDF manual mentions titles in 4 or 5 lines, nothing about actual 3D titles and changing their text. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

I couldn't agree more....... just bought MEP 2020.... cannot render a file in Mp4 to save my life. Tried EVERYTHING! The cost of the codec was minimal - less than $5.00, why, why ,why is it not included in the product and made sure it works before sale.

Hi. Im a 2015 MEP user. Same problem about ratio 9:16 (newmexd). Any solution? Is there an update for 2015 MEP? Where I can foud? My installation is from Steam and I do not found any update.

So, it appears that I watched this video about a year ago before using MEP hardly at all. Now that I've watched again, after using the program a little while, the techniques you demonstrate make much more sense. Thanks Again.  

@Vitaly Hi, There are 2 different ways of using masks in MEP. The first way, and what you are referring to is done by masking an effect on a single video or photo. See the tutorial indicated below, particularly from 8:30 onwards. You either create or load a mask using the dropdown arrow of an effect, Create effect mask or Load effects mask. This puts the effect onto the track below the video and

Hi and thanks for this tutorial. I'm trying to follow it but there is something I don't quite understand. I'm talking about a small title, at the bottom, that you start explaining from 4:20. I can't seem to figure out how to apply that mask with chromakey with alpha effect. As far as I understand, we can only apply a mask to an effect that has a particular icon (rectangle with a circle inside in

John, Thank you for these introductory videos. They will certainly save me lots of time and frustration once I finally get to actually editing some video.   In the mean time I am really struggling with how to either record decent quality video, or record elsewhere and import into MEP. I have had no success at either thus far.Do you know of any tutorials that teach how to record with MEP? I've

Hi Anna, As mentioned in the post directly above yours, 6th June 2017, it's better to post in the main MEP forum. 🙂 However ... you fade in titles the same way as any other object, by dragging the fade handle at its start and/or end. I'd recommend you view John Brown's basic introductory tutorials. Best wishes, Terry, East Grinstead, UK    

I had problems with MEP 17 not recognizing my dvd burner and some other minor issues.  Following the instructions suggested in this PDFworked perfectly.

Well explained and easy to understand.  Perfect as an intro to MEP.  Thanks

I watched your vid. I set my visible jog to on, but I can only see it when I enlarge/fullscreen the Preview Monitor.   MEP Premium

This tutorial also applies to MEP2016.

Brilliant work, John, well done! That's potentially going to be a great help for many new (and not so new) users. I was successful a few years back in persuading Magix to include my draft 'stickie' in the Forum section. But despite my efforts it was never similarly placed in the Q&A. I've tried again several times, including a week ago, as we're getting an increasing number of questions that

A whole step by step video need to be done on how to do this. This is not working for me I am using I am using MEP2014 plus. Its so confusing.

AH ... HAaaa! Eureka !! I have found it. Although the stack I made in the comments above works fine, the stack you provided in your pdf file needs a bit of extra explanation. You mention chromakey but you don't mention what to do in that effect. The effect was a clear circle and a sand effect on the outside of the circle. (I use sand for distortion) So, to get the right effect I reversed the

Thanks John for this tutorial. However, I am using MEP2014 plus and your instructions did not work in this version. When I stacked according to your instructions I got the reverse of what was expected: the white part was clear and the clear part was mozaic (I used sand). When I added the second .png in the stack as illustrated, it had no effect. So I tried something else: I reversed the order

2014.02.15 The modified uploaded file still does not work. Here is the version above but from Dropbox. It is the same as I uploaded to Magix Tutorials, except it works......I hope: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hts6ayvlosb32x3/Tutorial%2001%20VdG2MEP_r1.mp4 I will try a different export version on Sunday night.

On the contrary, MEP 16 Plus (and later versions) make it very easy to use 3D Titles. Or for better quality: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/4019461/MEP16-3DTitles.jpg   -- Terry, East Grinstead, UK

The tutorial for MEP 15 is worthless for MEP 16 even though the author says "many" of the menus are the same. The particular menu for the title editor is NOT the same and does NOT work as the tutorial video demonstrates for MEP 15. There are many title options in MEP 16 that once selected, the user is directed to use the editor in the "title menu" which simply does not exist. MEP 16 is a total

Yes, I agree. Effect Masks is one of the features not included in the basic versions (both MX and 2013). Looks like I've slipped into the bad habit of assuming everyone knows I have the premium versions. My tutorial was carelessly headed, and should have explicitly said 'It was done using MEP 2013 Premium'. -- Terry, East Grinstead, UK

That effect mask Oval8_1920x1080.jpg is included in MEP 17, MX and 2013 (premium versions) assuming you've added all extra files via Help > Free download. And as the tutorial says, it's just an example. There are 34 in the folder here. And the post clearly says: "It was done using MEP 2013 but the steps should be identical or very similar in earlier versions." -- Terry, East Grinstead,

Hi Kreplatch, Just found your question as I have been unable to log on for a while. You can see two folders, left and right, as I use a twin synchronised camera system, so I end up with files from the left and right cameras. If you have a 3d camera, such as the Fuji W3 or Sony Bloggie etc, the 3d video file from them will be in a single folder and will show as a single audio and stereo
