Another excellent tutorial! And a subject that few users will have seen. John CB

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

Very good tutorial for Music Maker users. nihon94

Thankyou for the tutorial, I would like to expand the range of collages I can use, but I've been unable to find the Collages folder on Win 7.- Open the \Collages folder. On my XP PC that's at C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\MAGIX\Movie Edit Pro 2014 Premium\VideoEffects\Collage\ but Win 7, 8 (and soon 10) systems will be different. Anyone able to help?  Thanks!

douglasslb, do you mean as in connecting both videos into one? I haven't used their software yet. I loaded it up expecting something that wasn't [it's far to primative for me] and sorry mod's but it is. anyway let me go load it up and see if that primative thing can splice vid's together.   Ok I just tried it. You add your files onto the movie/video time line then save it to your computer

Purchasing Magix PhotoStory was a mistake. This program has a sophisticated user interface, but there are no tutorials. I don't recommend it to anybody. 

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

I also tried to download the 2000 sounds but now can't find them. I think a tutorial should show new users how to use this program like you would a child. I used to (and still do) compose my music on staff paper and write my lyrics on a typewriter...seriously. Please don't assume everyone who attempts to use and understand music software already knows what you're talking about. We don't. Could

Fab - thanks for this. I was starting to get frustrated as I couldn't find anything about pitchbend in the user guide.

Manual that is not user friendly - I agree. Website that is not informative - I agree. But the program, so far so good for me and their support and community forums are helpful.

I need some help!!! I'm a first time Magix user, and I have a short story togher. And I.m trying to see what is the best way to make this work on my website. I'm using dreamweaver and I'm not having any luck. Can some point me in the right way? Thank's Mike

Excellent.  However, does anyone have a similar "how to" to get the soundpools for MM17 Premium?? I've followed all installation instructions, but the instruments just do not show up. I think the files get dumped to "C:/Documents and Settings/All Users/Applications/Magix/Music_Maker_17_Premium_Download_Version/" I can't find anything in the manual that helps. Any help out there

Hi. Not that message, but the following when draggging and dropping one of the 2 guitar samples....   The file format of C:\Users\Public\Documents\MAGIX_Music_Maker_16\Basics_16\Rock Alterantive Vol. 2\Guitar\CamperB 1.OGG cannot be read by MAGIX Music Maker.   Please ensure that that the affected drive is not full or write protected.   The C: drive is NOT full or write

A good job nihon94. " Ven though not my specific case, is grateful for the assistance provided to users. Thanks  Greetings from Spain.

I agree with what is being said in the other commnets.  I just got the program and came to this site hoping for some tutorials - there is none!!  This is an expensive product and should have at least some support for the users.

I have to agree with everyone here. I too bought this product on the strenth of the reveiws and I have to say it looks wonderful.  But I have spent hours trying to figure out how to use it.  Going through the Help files didn't help much.  We need some decent tutorials.  Magix, please put some step-by-step tutorial on your website that we can download.  Otherwise I can see this going in the bin! 

Love the slideshow capabilities BUT totally agree that there needs to be much better documentation and tutorials.  The DVD burning process is extremely frustrating and puzzling.  It should not take sveral hours to burn a DVD.  Did you pay off TopTenReviews to give Xtreme Photo Story the best rating?  I've run into problems with the program intermittently not recognizing fade selections and no

This is a super report on how to make videos fly.  I have been a Majix user for years but just discovered this forum and I want to thank you for this good work and know it will be very useful to me.

First of all I agree with everyone else - the documentation is so poor it almost renders the product useless. Secondly, I am very disappointed in all of the reviews I read prior to purchasing PhotoStory 8 - all rated this product the best, and described it as intuitive, user friendly, etc, which it is definetely is not. At any rate, if anyone ever hears abour or writes a better, step-by-step "how

I'm very frustrated with this software.  This software was rated number one in the 2009 TopTenReviews, presumably because of the full range of features.  However, if the user can't figure out how to use the features, then they're worthless.  A full user guide, with examples is desperately needed.  The on-line knowledge base is also very weak.  The majority of questions have no answers and

I found it very useful. As a new user there is a lot to learn and this has helped me to understand some of the techniques. Best wishes everyone Dave

I totally agree with the other users, the tutorial is very weak for such an elaborate program. I really wish you had a better user friendly way to teach this program. Help system through the program is weak as well. Can't find out how to remove the black borders after importing pictures. MS PhotoStory addresses this at the first screen and does it for you, very simple. Lot of features, just hard
