Part 1 - Fades & Transitions in Movie Edit Pro

Part 1 of Fades and Transitions in Movie Edit Pro Plus/Premium and Video Pro X. I used Movie Edit Pro 2021. This shows the basics of transitions and fades, how to make them using the menu and manually, and some of the potential problems affecting other objects on the timeline. Watch this to get a good understanding as to what a transition is, before using templates that I'll show in Part 2. The same principles apply to Magix PhotoStory.

I have MAGIX Movie Edit Pro Plus - Version 20.0.1.80 (UDP3) UG code 8452 KA1

I believe this a 2021 version... I hadn't used it much.. the 2016 version was just fine for my limited needs, however, after producing a couple of simple movie slide shows, for some reason the program won't start (initialization file missing?) So I recalled purchasing this newer version in December of 2020 only used it limited in early 2021 because I had more command of the old version. Now I'm forced to use it to complete a project but ran into the problem where the features aren't fully operational and led into buying this mainconcept codec for $4.99.

so I did it and got this email back:

MPEG-4 FULL Codec Upgrade with an activation code....
 

Will this work with the 2021 program or is the whole thing oboslete and I was just scammed out of 5 bucks? I'm not getting access to the features after trying to update this codec.

Hi,

You should not be using or have to use the Main Concept CODEC. Some users do, but it is obsolete and also caused some problems in older versions.

I suggest that you post this on the forum and the gurus can reply. Include the actual version number that you'll find under Help, About.
