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

@Greg-Kavonius The title of the tutorial is "Getting Started in Music Maker 2015 Premium..." Of course it's outdated - 2015 should be a tipoff, no? The video still works, I just tried it, and it's also on my YT channel. The newer versions are quite different, but some of the fundamentals are the same. John CB

Very outdated and you can no longer access the video. Pretty sad!    

I thought I commented here a couple of months ago, but seems I didn't. I wanted to add that after I upgraded Windows 7 in-place to Windows 10, I had big problems with VPX. So I uninstalled and reinstalled with the same issues. i followed the above PDF and it seemed to almost work, as symptoms were different. I uninstalled again, followed the PDF again, then manually searched for 'MAGIX', 'Video

Hi José, Well done! Now look at the beginning of the video again and you will see that the first method is to simply overlap the two videos on track 1, no need to put the second video on track 2. Your second and third examples would be better this way. This makes a transition and you can adjust the length of the transition that you want. Then drag the Spicemaster effect onto the transition

Like blurocrider13, I can get no sound from the video. I've no idea how to resolve this.

This is an excellent video. I found the demo songs I was missing. Unfortunately, I found no answers for the error msg I continue to get re: midi sounds.  Thank you for taking the time.

Just wondering, does VHS to DVD have a different version of magix included with it? I bought the Video Converter box with Magix in it (SE) and updated to the Windows 8 version. The version I have doesn't seem to have some of the functions you mentioned, Such as export and finishing time. You can't see the dropped frame as well (which would be handy). Another question (which has bugged me from

I´m starting to think this program is just a waste of my $$$ and time. when i try to copy minidv video tapes i get either video or audio, and most of the times none!!!!! Plus this program needs several options in the menus and there´s no tutorials explaining it!! THANK YOU MAGIX!!!!!  

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

Hello, I just bought the Magix music maker MX but I can't find the function that I am looking for. For example, the guitar chords, I don't know if I am on chord C or G or F or etc. Also I can't find where to go if I want to change the chord C to C7 or C minor for example. Can anybody show us here how to find these functions? because the manual that comes with it has no step by step method. This

Hi I liked your fun vid, the vibrant colours really added a psychedelic quality to the animation! I liked the Jazzy intro music too.... is it still possible to obtain the swing disc? I am using Magix Music Maker 2005 Deluxe ( which I got working on Windows 7 ! ) and have recently discovered the included video making tools. They seem like great fun and amazingly versatile! Something puzzles me

My LG passive 3D TV plays video files in 3D directly from my Fuji cameras or my Sony HDR-TD10 or DXG 3-D camcorders via an HDMI cable.  It also plays Time Warner On Demand selections as well as commercial 3D BluRays automatically (that is, with no manual format selection on the TV's remote).  However, I have not been successful with burning a BluRay from my cameras, playing the BluRay in my 3D

I just upgraded to 10 Deluxe Same old story program indicates it includes a introductory video but as usual no video.  atry and follow the printe instructions is ridiculous.  I think the Germans need a leeson in honesty.

What is the tech support phone number? The posted one asks for a Block Number. What Is That. I want to talk to someone, about Spectral cleaning. A Video would be nice. I can not log in and when I request the forgot password, I get no reply. When I call the other number, all I get in a message, "the everyone is busy". I Think NOT. Are you still in business. This is a new

 There are many versions of each magix product (made for different areas of the world and languages). If you are using a UK version of one of the programs and you try to use material from north american dvds it may not work. This is because dvds from europe and north america are in different formats. I am by no means an expert especially when it comes to video editing software but I believe in

The Getting Started pdf starts with: Upon starting the program you see the Video Editor. but there is no such thing. It doesn't work. I imported a video from a Sony Digital Handycam DCR-TRV 340. I saw it go to Magix Edit Pro 15, although in jumps and stops and at low res. Then I tried to find it to play it and edit it. But where was it? There was no clue how to find it. That should be
