Jesus, Let me re-type that, I can abrely understand it myself.


You have to move the anchors with the character as it goes. So each frame keyed, you need to move around the anchors to stay with the character, It's a rather tedious task (moving masks) Whic his why I try to avoid it XD.

Is there any old versions of Media Manager available on the Internet? My "newest version" works like a wild child and crush my computer too often. It's such of pain to search video clips when you can see just a white screen... Some projects can't be opened because of Media Manager (and my computer is not slow, there's 1,5GB of RAM). Now I can't open Sony Vegas without administrator's settings. :/

"An error occured with the Media Manager. This feature will be unavailable.
Media Manager initialization failed"

I have a question not related to the software per se.

I'm trying to order the software here. This gives me Vegas 6.0 like I would be buying the official box with everything else but without that stuff, right? Also, does anyone know how to add more than one credit card to the order?

:O..

Go to a clip, right click>Somethings and envelopes>Velocity then right click on the left of the clip where the green thing starts..set to 0.

Then you can drag it out for ten 10.. won't move. Although if you're making an AMV I highly suggest you don't just show a non moving clip for 10 seconds =O

Lawl.. Blinking effect isn't hard. you're probably thinking to much.. You can figure it out

okay maybe i was exaggerating with the 10 seconds thing,maybe more like 3 seconds with the white and black effect,then fade it out to black or something...

but as for the blinkin effect im not talking about the one where you make a gap in between the clips to create the black blinkin effect
^^
[where you can also add a white backround to make a flash]

ive seen a white one where it seems as if the effect comes from within the clip..specially when the clip has a lot of light...
its hard to explain,i think the clip gets bright real quick only whenever there is a beat..but doesnt cut off to the next clip,how would i do this?

Now that I've got Vegas 6, I can start but I have one question. What are the ideal settings for subtitles used for lyrics?
