I am new to this forum and not sure where to address this question. I apologize in advance if this is the wrong place.
I have been trying to get the closing title slide (the ending movie credits, if you will) to play on top of a video clip. [The video clip is in Sony's AVC-HD format, if that makes any difference.] I have created a standard title slide and set it to roll up the screen. It works just great when it's in the video track.
However, if I go to the timeline and place the title slide below the video I want to overlay and then play the video with the title slide, all I see in the preview window is a big, blue exclamation point. I do hear the video clip's sound just fine. When I stop the video, the preview screen shows the menu titles playing on top of the video, but that's only on pause. When I restart the video, the blue exclamation point reappears. I've tried picture in picture and it does the same thing - no video, just a big blue exclamation point.
I buddy-chatted with the Studio Tech Support people and the guy told me that I need to uninstall and reinstall the entire Studio program. So I did it and it took hours to do and still does not fix the problem.
My thought is that I'm creating the title menu using the wrong type or something and that that's what's giving me the big, blue "!" or the video clip has to be of a certain format. It has to be something simple that I'm missing
I'd appreciate any help or suggestions. If I need to post this in another area, please let me know.
If you have some ideas, please be as detailed as possible in your explanation.
Thank you in advance!
