Stage tools came with studio 11 ultimate, (not sure if it was a LE version or a full version), but if you load studio 11 off of disk, it should be there with no activation cost. I use stage tools all the time when I want go resolution of the panning and zooming, studio tools will sometimes degrade the resolution first, then do the pan and zoom, ...

Marchgale: Ian, thanks for the update. Encouraging indeed. Who is Kevin, I wonder? Jonathan   More than likely the CEO of Smartsound.

That's the most encouraging news I have heard on the smart-sound plug-in since studio 12. I still have my wallet waiting on a solution before I move to studio 14.

Although all of the last versions of a serious have worked fine for me, but 9.4 and 12.1 are the most stable version, with 10. anything being the least stable. I will not bye 14 because of the missing smartsound plug in.

One more possible suggestion, I have not tried this with a football team but I have with basketball teams, take one day, and film a short 5 to 10 second shot of each player, it could be during a practice session, then you can then play some games with this video on the intro or the credits, putting there nicknames with the shot, or use it as ...

ebros; Those instructions are for generating 5.1 audio out from the editor, and that part does work, I have generated several disk with 5.1 audio encoding. The current problem is, that there is no way of bring in 5.1 with your video (all at the same time), so all of those consumer cameras that can record with 5.1 encoding all get down mixed to ...

Greg; I have posted the one fact that I was told by SmartSound on the VFF forum that anytime I say it here, the posting is deleted. I might not have said it as loudly as I have said in the forum, or with all the smaller details but it's there. And I would agree with you in a lot of cases Pinnacle has been very tolerant on what has been ...
